How would you go about making up job experience on your resume?

I graduated from college in 2016, and I can't find a job in my field. I'm losing my mind because I don't know what else to do about it. All the jobs in my field require experience I don't have. So the question is should I lie on my resume about job experience? If so, how would you make up job experience just to get hired?

If youre good at it then sure why not.. people lie about worse things... however it's still wrong.

I am fortunate to be able to work with my father as a carpenter. It isnt strictly within my workfield but it's at least in the same category.
