ABOUT
Austin based home & diy Blogger
We believe everything is
figure-out-able
Growing up in a low income family had its perks - we learned to be creative from a young age. From making my own doll houses from cardboard, to sewing my own clothes, I grew a love for art and design, on a budget. I couldn't wait for the day I had funds and a house to start building my dream space.
Fast forward to 2021, I spotted a small 1960s ranch in Austin, with original wallpaper and dated kitchen cabinets. I saw the potential immediately! At the height of the pandemic - everything was expensive, the materials, the labor, etc. How do I create my dream home without going house-poor? I decided to renovate the house, DIY-ing one space at a time. I mean how hard could it be? Everything is figure-out-able.
This blog is dedicated to all the DIYers and dreamers. You can do it, you can figure it out! Find the tools you need here, from tutorials, tips and tricks, design inspo, and much more. Learn from my mistakes and start building a space that is uniquely you.
the founder
MAGGIE
Based in Austin, Maggie brings her self-taught skills (or lack of) to the world of social media.
A 9-5'er turned DIY content creator. When I'm not tearing down walls and ripping up carpets, you can find me designing and building furniture, watching Marvel movies for the 100th time, and cuddling my goofy Australian Shepherd, Tokyo.
I love learning new skills and obsessing over new hobbies that last a week and hosting dinner parties.
LOVES: farmers markets, thrifting,
sushi, great storytelling
