How hard could it be?
If you’ve ever looked at a DIY project and thought, “I have no idea what I’m doing, but I’m gonna try anyway”—you’re in the right place.
A self-taught DIYer turned construction pro who loves design, secondhand treasures, and learning by doing.
I got here the usual way: an HGTV obsession, champagne taste on a beer budget, and the audacity to believe I could learn anything on YouTube.
Now I share the process—beautiful, messy, and real—to help you try things out and design with fewer rules and more creativity.

HI, I'M MARY,
Let’s build something together—
even if it’s just the courage to start.
MAKING THINGS MATTERS
This space is part design diary, part creative outlet—a way to share what I love, document our home’s transformation, and stay grounded in the process.
Focusing on design at a time like this can feel a bit like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic—but making things helps me stay centered.
If the world feels like a lot right now, same. Making things helps. I hope it helps you too.

Thanks for being here—
now lets make some cool sh*t
