15 Easy DIY Projects
I came, I saw the pin, I never conquered. Story of my life. In my defense though, it is darn near impossible to do DIY projects in a one bedroom apartment. I'm making excuses. The real problem is that I'll have plans to do one of these projects, then someone will text and ask if I'd like to go grab a drink. Drink grabbing always wins. Also, I literally cut corners on DIY projects, so they always turn out horrific. I'm a living, breathing, Pinterest Fail.
NOT ANYMORE THOUGH. This is where I draw the line. CB is the best teammate when it comes to this kind of thing. Not necessarily because he wants to do these projects with me, but I think he simply can't stand to watch me half ass it. For example, the kid got out a level yesterday to mount a shower curtain rod. A level. Bless his little heart. If it were up to me, the thing would've been hung in 29 seconds, aligned at a 60 degree angle and I would have patted myself on the back and encouraged myself to grab a glass of wine for my hard work. Meticulous DIY project completer, I am not.
With that said, here are the projects I CB and I will 100% be completing for the new house. Mark my words, and please no invitations to happy hour. Unless you're going? Are you going? How many people? What are the specials? What time should I meet you? Ok, I'll be there 10 minutes early.
