Initially mine wasn't so much DIY as MEHSW (My ex-husband sure wouldn't!)
Then I got into the swing and before we divorced I had installed wrought-iron railings on 1st & 2nd floor porches, remodeled the powder room, including a drop-ceiling, torn up the indoor-outdoor living room carpet, sanded and varnished the pine floors underneath, tore up decades of linoleum and put down tile in the kitchen, stripped the paint off pine cupboards and varnished them, stripped wallpaper and painted...and hand-carved an oak threshold for the kitchen/living room doorway.

@DreamyCrush Nearly every one of those projects were only begun because I had no idea what I was getting into.
