A home is a place to express yourself and feel comfortable. This may often mean that you need to or want to make some changes around your home. These changes can be big or small and can require full renovations or simple DIY curtain-making. No matter what the size or project, you probably need a few ideas and guidance for getting started. I have quite an extensive collection of home and garden DIY books, so I want to share some of my favourites with you.
