262 // DIY with Mr. fig & farm (at home): How we added character to our home while saving $15,000

 SUMMER SAVING SERIES:

DIY with Mr. fig & farm (at home)

 

In today's conversation with Greg, aka Mr. fig & farm (at home), you'll hear that the secret to becoming a proficient DIYer isn't that you were born with it...it's that you've experimented and practiced. Greg shares that his previous build experience was building LEGOS. No high school woodshop, no hours spent with grandpa in the shop on the weekends...LEGOS. 

 

Greg shares practical advice for those getting started and it's all wrapped in kindness - "be gracious to yourself because you will make mistakes along the way." 

 

Hear which builds we have done in our own home (we've built something for every room, except one!), how his first DIY build was 'cute' in the baby-deer-walking kind of way, and what build I'm hoping he'll say yes to as we continue putting a stamp on our own home. 

 

And...get a behind the scenes look at the fig & farm (at home) home by becoming a Design Bestie. Come say 'hey!' and you'll be put on the list!
