I prowled Pinterest, YouTube, and IG for hours before I finally saw the DIY textured wall from @refreshhomeimprovements. It was exactly what I needed: bold, dramatic, yet soft. Most of all it was affordable and easy to do. This was just the first part of this powder room glow up. I'll be inconsistently posting my progress to my stories (and yes, I do plan on sealing it) Would you try a wall treatment like this?

Share this Reel if you can relate... . Cause I'm literally at one of the most transformative parts of this office build, and I👏🏿 just👏🏿 don't👏🏿 wanna👏🏿. Maybe it's the extra self imposed pressure of recording for content creation. Maybe it's my messed up sleep pattern. Or maybe I'm just not in the mood. And then frustration because this is one of the few bulk of days I have off I cat actually be productive but here I am dragging my feet. So what do I do instead? Make a Reel about how I feel 😂😂. I know I'm not alone!. . . . . . . . . . #diy #ditry #officebuild #officemakeover #officedesign #officespace #builtins #customshelves #shelves #ledlights

I think it deserves to be called a story. It took 3 weeks with a few pivots, a new stain, and a whole lot of sanding. But she's done and sitting pretty in the office. Would you have ever guessed this was cheap framing lumber? Have you built anything from framing lumber recently? . . . . . #mistakes #mistakesarelessons #preserverance #framing #diydesktop #desktop #diycountertop #countertop #woodcountertops #paintandpoly #woodstain #diyoffice #officedesign #officemakeover

Yep, that gorgeous backdrop was under $75! - 2 sheets of 5mm plywood : $44 - 2 cans of gold spray paint $16 - paint: $10 Want to see how the process went?

Accept your greatness! Why is it so hard for us, especially women, to accept compliments? We are taught, overtly or covertly, to be humble, to minimize our accomplishments. Well F THAT. This wall is FIRE. It's freaking awesome, and I DID THAT. Accepting all compliments in the comments 🤣🤣🤣. . . . . #ladieswhodiy #accentwall #featurewall #diamondpainting #plywoodart #diyaccentwall #ididthat #blkandhome #blackgirlmagic #blackwomenbuild #uniqueinteriors #diyprojects #ryobi #ryobination

Faux Wood Tiles: Phase 1 complete. I'm still not entirely sure what I got myself into when I decided to use @modernbuilds plywood patterned floor tutorial on my home office wall, but there is no going back now! It took 2 weeks for me to cut and nail the tiles to the wall. As usual, I underestimated the work but dang she looks good! And so far it seems to be highly forgiving of my mistakes. Next up: - spray painting the space between the tiles gold 🖌️ - sanding the wall 😑 - painting the final color 🥰 Hit that follow button so you don't miss out on the final result!

Introducing my husband's game room! We have a very large unused loft space upstairs and for Christmas I transformed it into a game room. I envisioned a grown up game room that could easily still be a space we could entertain if needed. Floating shelves to display his collectables, faux cement wall to highlight his new TV, slat wall for detail and to help fill the space. What's your favorite part?

Often as DIYers, we don't stop to celebrate and savor the little moments because we gotta move on to the next thing. This is your reminder to stop and pat yourself in the back! Tell me about a little victory you've had lately in the comments, let's lift each other up🙌🏿

Hey 👋🏿. I think I'm back. Probably. My life has been a whirlwind of change this past year, almost all for the better. But while I can't promise I'll be back to being a consistent presence here on IG I'm for sure DIYing again! I have so much I feel like I haven't shared with you guys, but for now let's get back to work on this office shall we? In the meantime, tell me something that's happened (or happening now) that's I've missed while I've been gone, I have so much to catch up on!

That wood grain isn't real y'all! 👀 All it took was some paint & poly and a $9 tool from @allwaytoolsinc that you can buy on Amazon. You can also use paint & glaze to create a faux wood surface on anything that can be painted. The possibilities are endless. What would you use this kit on? Let me know in the comments and then go make it happen! Buy your kit here: https://amzn.to/3weEkGl

And that was on SALE! I can't do it. Nope. Head to my stories to help me pick what I should do with the legs of the patio table I just built! In the mean time, what is something you felt you HAD to DIY because the price tag was just insane? . . . . . #diyproblems #diysolutions #patiodesign #patiomakeover #outdoorfurniture #patiodecor #patiofurniture #broke

Having 2 is better than 1! Especially when you are predrilling holes then driving screws, having both handy is so useful to not have to stop and change bits. But each serves their own purpose, keep reading for why👇🏿 Drill: - Most common power tool - Accepts both standard bits and hex bits - Adjustable speed Driver: - Compact and lightweight - High torque with rotational force that allows you to drive in screws very quickly - Has quick release shank that only accept hex bits. Do you have both a drill and a driver? Let me know why or why not in the comments. #ryobi #ryobination #powertools #diy #drill #driver #boaf #twoisbetterthanone

That's that energy at the beginning of every project! Ask me tomorrow how I'm feeling about this patio makeover in this Georgia heat though..... What are you working on right now? Tell me in the comments or tag me in your stories!! . . . . #patiodesign #patio #patiomakeover #raisedbeds #raisedgardenbed #diygarden #gardening #thisheat #atlanta

I am easily distracted! For real though, how many projects are you working on at once? Be honest in the comments.... . . . . #focus #easilydistracted #diyprojects #diyproblems #adhd #oneatatime #imnotgoodatthis

She's READY! Inspired by @athomewithastra @neverskipbrunch and @a.dabbled.dwelling, I turned an old, ugly dresser into a sexy miter saw stand. Yes I said sexy. But she's full of really cool features I'll be sharing tomorrow! Make sure to follow so you don't miss it 👌🏿. In the meantime, head to my story highlights to see how she came together (and how I almost ruined it at the last minute 👀). Would you ever turn furniture into a workbench?
