Do it yourself or Call a Professional?


Introduction:
I recently purchased my first house. Since then, I have discovered I enjoy personalizing it and turning it into my home. I run into some trouble along the way, spend a lot of money and have to ask for a lot of help, but in the end, to me it is all worth it. I will list and describe some of issues and things I have done to my house to give anyone out there wondering what really is a do-it-yourself job or is this something better left to the professionals?  
  
Paint definitely goes a long way and is an easy fix. But it could be something small, as small as cabinet pulls that makes a huge difference in a kitchen. On this journey to personalizing my home, I have learned things about myself, what I can do, can’t do and don’t want to do. In my opinion it is definitely a gratifying and a feeling of accomplishment doing renovations yourself. But when is it really too much for you?

 I want my blog to encourage people to recognize their own interests and abilities when it comes to home renovations. This is important to me because home remodeling is a current journey I am on myself.
