Refinishing My Concrete Floors For Under $200

In an effort to not completely blow the budget on my shop renovations I decided to refinish the concrete floors myself. I had to contract out some of the other work for my shop which ended up costing way more than I was expecting. The quote I got for hiring this job out was $1,050. So, if I could do this for less I was going to figure out how, and spoiler alert I only spent $190. I had never refinished concrete floors before but with that amount of savings we made it work!

DIY Easy Shop Cabinets with Woodshop Diaries

You all know I love a collab! Shara from Woodshop Diaries spent 3 days with me and we built all of the cabinets for my shop. What an exhausting and fun project to do together.

So I took this standard small bedroom and turned it into the perfect pain cave, complete with a custom entertainment and organization system. Here’s how I did it!

Dream Desk Build in my Garage with Eric Curtis

For this project I got back to my furniture building roots. I know we have been focused on Home Reno projects for a while and when I did my office I knew that it was going to need a desk that would make a true statement. I really wanted to build a piece of furniture that could stand the test of time and be handed down someday. So I called in the help of my Emmy award winning friend Eric Curtis to collab with me on this build. It was quite the ride but I absolutely love what we built.
