I DIY, Do You?


I’ve always been interested in how things work. I also have a frugal streak that prevents me from paying someone to do a job I think I should be able to figure out on my own.

My latest project was to remove the HUGE wall mirror from my bathroom and tile the wall around two smaller mirrors. I have to admit, I’m really proud of the way it turned out. There were more than a few false starts, but I’m happy with it and glad I took a chance at trying my hand at something new.
So, has the DIY bug bitten you?
