Hi, we're Emma & Alex!

DIYErs | parents | chronic project starters

We started DIYing when we bought our first house in 2019 and now we've renovated three houses because we had the audacity to start then had to figure out how to get it done.

We're here to share what we've learned and hopefully inspire you to start, too!

A thrifty Aussie mum with the audacity to DIY anything. Old house, new projects, & life back home after a decade abroad 🛠️

I’m starting a new thing where I, an average, bu I’m starting a new thing where I, an average, busy, Type B parent constantly chasing that next hit of dopamine, share the little systems that save my time and sanity, crafted over many years of undiagnosed ADHD. 

Because if we’re living in a dystopian hellscape anyway, I’d like to spend less time on daily chaos and more time creating joy elsewhere.
I read something the other day about holding whims I read something the other day about holding whimsy alongside the rage so here are some stills of Eleanor’s joyful pink room.
When I asked my 5-year-old what colour she wanted When I asked my 5-year-old what colour she wanted her room to be and she said pink, I thought we might as well go all in 🤷‍♀️ 
Our kids have been such champs this last year moving countries and traveling and sharing rooms and not having their own space so I wanted to make this girls room feel like her, princess crowns and monster trucks and all 🥲

Also me: fine I’d better just paint the room while I’m at it too

I vetoed the very bright hot pink because I knew she wouldn’t actually like it fully covering her walls and it would be so overstimulating 😅 but we landed on the prettiest muted but also moody pink that still gives her the dark bold vibe she wanted and I think it’s going to be amazing but phew what a change. That first coat always is rough but we’re trusting the process!
