I just finished up my daughter bedroom and we made a reading tent, curtains, book shelves and some wall art. Now I a, moving on to our guest bedroom. I wish I had more time because I always have tons of stuff I want to do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-do-a-lot-of-diy-projects#post-640891 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 15:53:18 +0000 Sweet T 640891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not as much as I would like.

His birthday is the perfect excuse to get my crafty supplies out again. I don't even want to begin to count the number of projects I have planned. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-do-a-lot-of-diy-projects#post-640806 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 15:35:42 +0000 MrsRoo 640806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I pretty much an always in the middle of a project. Especially since Pinterest came along, I have a long list of DIYs to complete before LO gets here. I'll be stayin busy for a while! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-do-a-lot-of-diy-projects#post-640614 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 14:58:13 +0000 heffalump 640614@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I'm always making something. I wanted to start an etsy business but between taking care of LO and making my own stuff..... I dont' feel like I have time to make stuff for other people :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-do-a-lot-of-diy-projects#post-640604 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 14:55:20 +0000 swurlygurl 640604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! It's my stress reliever. Thank goodness for Pinterest! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-do-a-lot-of-diy-projects#post-640599 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 14:52:21 +0000 shopaholic 640599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not a whole lot, but I did do quite a bit for k's nursery! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-do-a-lot-of-diy-projects#post-639673 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:32:31 +0000 pui 639673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do! I always have some kind of personal project going on. Last year it was my wedding (I made practically everything for it), over Christmas I made a very complicated gingerbread house and currently I have been doing some rebranding for our company and kinetic typography. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-do-a-lot-of-diy-projects#post-639662 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:29:49 +0000 anbanan15 639662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try to make whatever I can before buying, but I am usually terrible at finishing my projects...oops. </p> <p>DH used to make fun of my mom and I for always making stuff, saying my mom was running a little sweat shop at her house, but now I see something I like and he immediately goes "you can make that right?". It cracks me up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-do-a-lot-of-diy-projects#post-639645 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:25:58 +0000 Reese 639645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I am obsessed. I can't wait until it gets a bit nicer outside (for painting and staining) I found what helped me complete my DIY projects was setting up a crafting area in the garage. This keeps everything in one place and always makes crafting easy and accessible. </p> <p>I recently made a plank coffee table and we get loads of compliments on it - it was a practice run because I want to do something similar with table in the kitchen (not formal dining room table but we have a smaller one in the kitchen) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-do-a-lot-of-diy-projects#post-639630 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:21:08 +0000 runsyellowlites 639630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually end up making things. Perfect example is the bunting for P's birthday... I was going to buy it, BUT it's now not available until early April (pretty much right when her birthday is) so now I'm making it! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-do-a-lot-of-diy-projects#post-639624 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:18:36 +0000 autumnlove 639624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I prefer buying things because I rarely finish my DIY projects. :-( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-do-a-lot-of-diy-projects#post-639609 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:15:26 +0000 Bao 639609@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never used to, but ever since I got pregnant, if I see something I like I ask myself if I could make it instead of buy it. Pinterest helps get my mind brewing with ideas too! </p> <p>Do you do a lot of DIY projects, or do you usually just buy things? </p>
