14 DIY Projects To Try This Weekend

Thanks For Sharing!

Thanks so everyone who linked up their projects to Happy Hour this week! As I was going through all of the links I was blown away by all of the amazing DIY projects that were linked up!  The paint choices, before/after picture, pure genius ideas… You all are so talented it kills me.

If any of you are afraid of tackling DIY projects around your own home, or you don’t know what to do with the cool pieces you find at the thrift store, you need to check out all of these projects. These prove that ANYTHING is possible and you will also learn a few valuable tips!
