25+ Budget-Friendly DIY Projects for your home
Budget-friendly DIY projects to help decorate your home both indoors and outdoors.
Have you been looking into purchasing items for your home but the price tag is a little high?
Sometimes it can be cheaper to DIY your own items.
I wanted bar stools for our 2×4 outdoor bar table we built last year. I found that everywhere I looked bar stools were expensive especially when you are buying multiple.
To remedy that, we built our own bar stools. They cost us $12.50 each to build and we even used pressure treated wood. The price would be cheaper using regular wood.
The bar stools we made are a good example of a budget-friendly project, right?
Now I’m looking for more projects to work on that won’t be too expensive to build.
