DIY 🛠️

By AllisonSkiff

Everything I use for DIY projects like painting, wallpaper and basic woodworking.

Ok I’m converted on the paint pad method! The finish was so smooth - no lines, no paint splatters and I could cut in almost right next to the crown molding.

Transforming my existing black bathroom vanity to a wood finish. For the first step I used retiqueit liquid wood and put 4 coats inside and outside, as well as all the doors, drawers and shelves. I needed almost two full jars for this! Next step will be staining! Linking everything here for you!

You don’t always need a landscaper—you just need the right tool. 💪🌳

I used the Kobalt Pole Saw to clean up the big trees on my property, and let me tell you… it made trimming tall branches so much easier (and kinda fun?).

If you’ve got overgrown trees or low-hanging limbs, this is the tool you didn’t know you needed. No ladder gymnastics required.

Week 9 of the primary bathroom renovation saw the good, the bad and the ugly. Some positive moments were installing my last piece of crown molding (ahem did you see the fancy return I made?!) and getting my new faucets installed. I picked these ones because I love that they have a vintage flair to them. These are part of the @kohler artifacts collection and are available at @loweshomeimprovement

The agony over a paint color continues but I think I have it narrowed down to two picks: light grey and drop cloth.

Renovations usually come with some hiccups and this one is no different. Stay tuned to see how I navigate this tricky situation with the countertop company.

In the meantime I’ll be tapping, filling and sanding somewhere between 1,500 - 2,000 nails and nail holes, so if you have any good true crime podcast suggestions drop them in the comments below. I like a thriller but one that gets solved!

I’ve always dreamt of having a kitchen with white Carrara marble countertops, but it wasn't in the cards for my no demo kitchen reno. But also, why live with something you absolutely hate? The answer is you don’t have to.

Last fall while I was renovating my kitchen, I decided to transform my dark speckled granite countertops into a white carrara marble finish simply by painting them! It took me three base coats of white primer, and then I added “veining” by dragging a skinny paint brush dipped in charcoal grey paint and misting it with water for a feathered effect.

But won’t they get damaged? That’s where the epoxy topcoat comes in. The epoxy adds a shine and protects the new “marble” from everyday kitchen use. I’m 8 months into using mine and they’ve been holding up great!

The countertop kits have everything you need from start to finish. Comment SHOP for a link to the kit I used!

Would you try this budget friendly DIY? What questions do you have?

Lots of questions about my light up level! It lights up green when thighs are level and yellow/red when they’re not. It’s been so amazing and could not recommend it enough!

No need to try and read the moving bubble in your level anymore! Franklin sensor’s light up level will turn green when things are level and red when they’re crooked! Perfect for tight spaces or low lighting areas where reading the bubbles is tough. So excited to use this for my diy wainscoting project!

As I embark on another custom trim project, I’m reminding myself of realistic timelines 🫠

The dining room was my first time installing picture frame molding and one year later I’m now adding it to a third room. This time I know I won’t be done in a day and a half 🙃

#diy #diyprojects #customtrim #homeimprovement

Yes, you can remove backsplash without removing drywall. 👏 I was determined not to derail my kitchen reno by tearing into the drywall—so when the hammer and chisel weren’t cutting it (literally), I headed to Lowe’s Home Improvement and grabbed the Kobalt Oscillating Saw 💙

Total game changer. 💥 It broke up the grout fast, helped the tiles pop off easier, and saved my walls and my timeline. If you're planning to demo a backsplash, this tool is the hero you need.

Primary bathroom renovation week 3! Here’s everything I used to DIY plus my pretty new brass toggle light switch. So excited to keep this bathroom renovation humming along!

This was my first time using an oscillating tool for drywall and it was super straightforward. It’s allowing me to make more even cuts than I’d get by sawing by hand. I found that going over each area a few times got the best results. Definitely a great tool to have on hand for any DIYer!

I always believed picture frame molding would elevate my dining room, but it took a minute to teach myself how to make it. If you’re thinking of doing the same here’s everything you’ll need (plus a couple dining room sources)

A close up of the dining table 2 years after using the liquid wood. It’s held up amazing! This table used to be black and I transformed it without sanding using this kit. Couldn’t recommend it enough!

Have you ever gone to the trouble to tape off a room before painting, only to find afterwards the new paint bled through your tape? If so, you’ll want to save this!

There’s a trick to painter’s tape and getting a good seal, and it’s as simple as an extra coat of paint. Watch how I do this here and see the final results for yourself!

Save this painting tip for later, and make sure you’re following for more home DIY tips & tricks!

Same table, new look! My black dining table was in great shape but really didn’t fit the color scheme in my dining room design. Rather than buy new, I gave my existing table a wood look with a simple weekend DIY using RetiqueIt liquid wood. The best part is it required zero heavy sanding or stripping, it was basically just painting!

If you’re unhappy with the finish of a piece of furniture but you love the bones, just know you have options! The finish I used is the pecan stain.

There is nothing budget friendly about getting new kitchen countertops. But also, why live with something you absolutely hate? The answer is you don’t have to.

Last fall while I was renovating my kitchen, I decided to transform my dark speckled granite countertops into a white carrara marble finish simply by painting them! It took me three base coats of white primer, and then I added “veining” by dragging a skinny paint brush dipped in charcoal grey paint and misting it with water for a feathered effect.

But won’t they get damaged? That’s where the epoxy topcoat comes in. The epoxy adds a shine and protects the new “marble” from everyday kitchen use. I'm 4 months into using mine and they've been holding up great!

If you've ever wished you could have soft lighting in your home without a major expense, this is for you.

Recently I upgraded my old six inch can light in the bathroom for a four inch recessed light from @lusalighting and it's made all the difference. My new light gives off a soft warm glow, and it looks chic in the ceiling too (no more seeing into the junction box!).

The best part is this is a beginner level DIY that anyone can do - no need to hire out!

You’ve probably heard of paintable caulk but have you heard of tintable caulk?

I’m all about working smarter not harder, especially with a large scale renovation like a kitchen. Exact color caulk by @sashcoinc takes a step out of the process by allowing you to color match your caulk to your paint color. And it couldn’t have been easier. Here’s all you need to do:

- snip the caulk bottle open
- add 20 ml of your paint to the caulk (measuring tool included)
- screw lid on and shake for 60 seconds
- add provided thickener
- add lid and shake for 60 more seconds
- wait 30 minutes
- caulk as you normally would

I’m not kidding when I say I’ll never buy paintable caulk again. I wish I would’ve discovered this sooner because it’s a game changer!

My budget friendly kitchen renovation plans include transforming my granite counter tops into a marble look! I’m using this marble counter top kit gifted to me by Giani and am so excited. They have so many different versions (there’s a gold marble option, plain white, black and more). Im looking forward to brightening these counters up without spending a fortune!

If you ever need to refinish a large piece of furniture but you can’t move it out of your room, a spray tent is a great option. This tent by Wagner comes in 3 sizes, and this one is the largest. It also zips up to keep dust out if you’re working outside or in a workplace. #diy

If you’re about to tackle an interior paint project the right supplies can make or break your project. Here’s everything I have on hand before I open the paint can.

My go to DIY uniform is this cute pink jumpsuit from Target. I love that it has pockets to hold everything I need, and it’s a heavy material which prevents paint from seeping through. We can look cute while we DIY 💕
