It's Only Drywall

Before you begin any DIY home renovation, you should ask yourself the following questions:

1. Do I have a basic understanding of carpentry, residential electrical wiring, HVAC, and plumbing?

2. Do I like dust?

3. Am I current on my tetanus shot?

4. Do my kids really need 3 meals a day?

5. If a poke unexpected holes in walls and stick my head through to entertain the kids, will that make up for the fact that there's no dinner?

6. Am I married to Chip Gaines?

7. Have I maybe been watching too many episodes of Fixer Upper?

8. Could all my nesting fantasies be satisfied by just trolling Pinterest all day?

9. Do I have enough coffee and wine on hand?

And finally...

10. How hard can it be? 

If you answered yes or no to any or all of these questions, you may proceed. 

Carpe diem! Carpe sledgehammer!
