DIY Outdoor pizza oven! #Diy #pizzaoven #roundboy


The big day has arrived for the Reveal of our DIY Outdoor Pizza oven!
We have always wanted our own pizza oven. However, to have one built was way out of the ball park in price for our budget.
I am not saying it was easy, but I am saying it can be done!


DIY Scentsy Candle


I am so excited to learn this DIY Scentsy Candle trick from my contributor, Heather, because I am a BIG fan of Scentsy, and have the small plug ins all over my home!


Spring Cleaning: cleaning out the rain gutters. An entertaining and easy tutorial for installing your own Gutter Guards to keep squirrels and leaves at bay.


(I was one of the bloggers selected by True Value to work on the DIY Squad. I have been compensated for my time commitment to the program as well as writing about my experience. I have also been compensated for the materials needed for my DIY project. However, my opinions are entirely my own and I have not been paid to publish positive comments.)
One big job I’ve wanted to tackle since moving in is cleaning out the rain gutters. For some reason, presumably leaves and debris, they overflow when it rains yet hardly any water actually exits the downspout.

Update your backyard with a DIY fire pit


Fire pits are fun and festive, adding a welcome element to backyard gathering spots and boosting appeal for potential homeowners, too. While some DIY fire pits have a range of amenities -- gas lines, seating -- you can construct a basic DIY fire pit that isn't too expensive, difficult, or time-consuming.
This DIY fire pit burns wood or charcoal. Although it includes a concrete base and mortared bricks, you can find pre-made retaining wall units for the DIY fire pit enclosure that may cut down on your labor.

Build your own ZGallerie-inspired Dining Table! #houseofwood #anawhite #zgallerie #diningtable #diy #furniture


Well that didn’t take long. It’s only our second move in this crazy Army life and it happened. We had a nightmarish moving experience. Among a laundry list of other things that went wrong, our movers broke our dining table. When putting it back together, they tightened one of the bolts so tight that they sent it straight through the top of the table! Is it bad that my first thought was, “meh. I could build a new one.” I mean, yeah, the easy solution would have been to just repair the damaged spot and refinish the table, but who wants easy? Pfffft. Besides, I was just waiting for the perfect excuse to start another DIY project, much to my husband’s chagrin.
