What Its Really Like for a Newbie to Do Their First Room Makeover - #140 Thrift Diving 2024-02-19 | We're going behind-the-scenes to hear the complete story of that epic bathroom makeover that I just finished in my best girlfriend's bathroom! What makes this an inspiring episode is that my friend and I get vulernable about what it was really like to tackle a DIY project together. She lacked interest and confidence because she was a "DIY newbie," and I lacked confidence because I had never done a project in someone else's house before (only my own house).Listen as she and I share the inside scoop on navigating this project to turn out as amazing as it did, and how we filled our "confidence buckets" for what we are capable of achieving!//LINKS// • See the "BEFORE" and "AFTER" pictures.

Finishing the Interior of a She Shed Workshop! (w/Guest Diane Dains) - #139 Thrift Diving 2024-02-13 | I love hearing from other women who decided to make the leap and buy a "she shed" to turn it into a workshop! Reader and fellow DIYer in the Thrift Diving community, Diane Dains, did that very thing: she bought a huge 16' x 28' shed to use as a workshop, but she decided that she would finish off the interior herself. She even hired an electrician to be her "teacher" to oversee her interior wiring (and she had never done interior wiring before!) Listen to this conversation about all the things to keep in mind when finishing off your own shed interior, including tips and tricks, and most importantly, how to speak up for yourself when dealing with contractors who think they know more than you do. Great episode you don't want to miss!See pictures of Diane's shed here on Instagram (instagram.com/p/C3RTeyONtNG/?img_index=1) !Follow Diane on Instagram (instagram.com/diane.dains) and Facebook (facebook.com/diy.with.dianed) for updates!Want to see pictures of my epic bathroom makeover?

This Bathroom Makeover Brought Me Closer to My Best Friend - #138 Thrift Diving 2024-01-24 | In this episode, I dive into an exciting new challenge: renovating a friend's bathroom. This project is an exciting new path from my usual DIY projects in my own 1973 home! I partnered with BathWorks for this extensive makeover, facing unexpected challenges like COVID interruptions and the challenge of coordinating such a big project in such a small space!This project has been stressful, but soooo rewarding--from refinishing the tub and tile to choosing the right paint colors, to reconnecting my friendship with my friend! The process wasn't just about the physical transformation of the space but also about strengthening my friendship and pushing personal boundaries in DIY.I wrap up the episode by reflecting on the emotional journey and how we can all learn from this project that stepping out of your comfort zone is not an option, but mandatory, in order to move forward.

I Was Too Poor to Volunteer...Until Now! - #137 Thrift Diving 2024-01-22 | I'm sharing my personal journey of giving back with Habitat for Humanity. I reflect on my early desire to volunteer, the challenges of balancing work and family, and the fulfilling experience of joining Habitat. As a crew leader, I contribute to building homes for low-income families and highlight the impactful programs supporting new homeowners. I also share my participation in a fall festival, where I painted and donated a desk that was later sold for $175, contributing to Habitat's fundraising.

Twas the Night Before Thrifting! - #133 Thrift Diving 2023-12-10 | ‘Twas the night before thrifting, when all through the houseNot an outfit needed washing, not even a blouse;The laundry was folded by the dryer with care,In hopes that tomorrow I’ll buy more things to wear;My husband was nestled all snug in our bed,Asleep after accusing that I’m hoarding again;And my boys in their jammies, asleep in a snap,“Finally! I’m free!” I whisper and clap,When out in the garage there arose such a clatter,I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.Down the stairs I flew like a flash,I had to make sure nothing was wrong with my stash!The garage was stacked with furniture I stowHow many pieces, I don’t even know.When what to my wondering eyes did appear,But a mid-century mod chair that I bought last year!With a vintage old fabric so awesome and chic,How dare someone say I’m a hoarder and freak?!More pieces than I need, all ready to be reclaim,And sometimes I buy several versions of the same,Blues! Reds! And greens! Chalk paint I’m a’ mixin’!Stripping! And sanding! Just needs a little fixin’!To the top of the ceiling! and from wall to wall!Now stash away! stash away! stash away all!As piles spill and crash around my feet, I sigh,Restacking the junk ‘till it’s ceiling-height high.So back to my bedroom I once again flew,With a closet full of clothes, most thrifted, some newAnd then, with an inkling, I saw the real truth:“I don’t need all this stuff!!” And then–poof!As I drew in my breath, and was turning around,Down came hangers with a deafening sound.I was drenched all in sweat, from my head to my foot,This crap needed to go, so all night I stayed put,A bundle of dresses I had flung in a sack,Tomorrow to the thrift store these clothes are going back!Keep reading the entire poem on the blog post HERE.

Do You HAVE to Sand or Prime Furniture Before Painting?? - #128 Thrift Diving 2023-10-23 | Don't believe furniture paint brands that claim you can always skip sanding and priming before painting. I think that's a gimmick to get more people to think their product is the easiest to use for painting furniture. In truth, there are times when you CAN skip sanding and priming, and there are time when you MUST sand and prime first. In this episode, we will talk about when you can jump right into painting wood and projects, and when you have to do more prep work!

My House Was Treated for Termites! - Thrift Diving Thrift Diving 2023-10-14 | A couple of years ago, I discovered that my house had termites! I would see them flying around the yard, but was afraid to take the step to actually have a professional inspection done. I had discovered that my rental property had termite damage so it made sense to inspect both of my properties. And there it was: signs of termites. Come behind the scenes to find out my home was treated for termites! I'm also happy to report that there has NOT been any evidence since the home was treated of termites chewing any of the wooden stakes that are monitored every year around my home's foundation. Whew!

My Creative Journey: Connecting, Creating, & Inspiring Thrift Diving 2023-10-13 | Most people don't ever figure out their life's purpose, but I have. Mine are to create, inspire, and teach. But the heart of my life's purpose begins with connection to other people. For 13 years after buying an outdated home that needed improvements, I've been sharing my DIY projects on Facebook and Instagram, growing my tribe, doing room makeover challenges with followers, and posting tutorials on decorating your home with paint, power tools, and thrift stores.But while my purpose is to create, and to inspire and teach others, I also consider myself to be a student, learning and be inspired by others. From sharing my followers amazing DIY projects on my Thrift Diving Facebook page, or finding personal groups. Thank you for watching! That helped me to become a better woodworker or knitter.I don't know of any other communities that allow me to connect so closely with other creative people. The key is to live your life's purpose, but show gratitude for the creativity, inspiration, and lessons that others can teach you.What about YOUR own DIY journey?Are you following me on Instagram?? instagram.com/thriftdivingFollow me on Facebook, too! facebook.com/thriftdiving**************thriftdiving.com/projects?utm_campaign=Social-Media&utm_medium=Description&utm_source=YouTubeSubscribe to my mailing list for 5 additional freebies:thriftdiving.com/subscribe?utm_campaign=Social-Media&utm_medium=Description&utm_source=YouTube***************BLOG: thriftdiving.comPODCAST: thriftdiving.com/new-podcastEMAIL: serena@thriftdiving.comFACEBOOK: facebook.com/thriftdivingPINTEREST: pinterest.com/thriftdivingINSTAGRAM: instagram.com/thriftdivingTWITTER: twitter.com/thriftdivingSNAPCHAT: snapchat.com/add/thriftdivingTIK TOK: @thriftdivingTHRIFT DIVING TEE-SHIRTS: thriftdiving.com/shop***************MAILING ADDRESS:Serena AppiahP.O.

The reps demonstrated what a corded circular saw with a regular blade could do (which it could barely cut through the steel, leaving it scorching hot!). But with the right steel-cutting blade (and even with a cordless circular saw), the saw was able to slice through the steel like butter! Whether you're cutting rebar, steel studs, angle iron, flat bar, channel, or EMT conduit, the right blade is important.

Remember THIS the Next Time You Procrastinate on a Project - #122 Thrift Diving 2023-08-14 | We all procrastinate on projects, whether they're DIY projects or other types of projects that we've never tried before. But you don't realize this: if you can work through that angst of starting a new project you've never done before, the next time you tackle that same project, you'll be so much faster, neater, and cleaner! You will learn so much that you will apply the next time you do that same type of project. That is where the learning takes place, and the self-confidence blossoms. Listen in as I explain how I came to realize this important lesson this week as I started working on building my second deck ever! Want to share your thoughts on this episode?
