While I love to craft, I will say that it's not uncommon to see something online that I'd like to do and I get excited about the project. Then I read the instructions or materials list and determine I'm going to either spend a lot of time or money hunting down the materials. Sometimes I over come this hurdle and then the project itself is a complete disaster. DIY, Dammit makes everything ...

Three Pots, Three Ways

June 16, 2015 • crafting, Home Organizing Tips

Spring is around the corner, (hopefully) and in honor or warmer weather coming, I wanted to share with you a project I've been wanting to do for a while. I have a small area in my home where I keep some potted plants. The longer I've had them, the more I know that the light just isn't quite right and it's difficult to keep things alive. However, succulents are easy to care for and add the ...

So I was looking for something to organize some of the craft supplies I use constantly. I really didn't want to spend a ton of money on organizers to hold my stuff....it's not that exciting right?
