Tips For The Home-DIYer's 2019 Projects


As most homeowners know, your “to do” list of projects never really gets completely crossed out. The bottom of the list just keeps getting longer. The rewarding part is that the results of your work are around you every day. It’s what keeps you going. As the New Year starts, it’s a good time to look back on the jobs that you’ve done, and what you’d like to begin next.

If you have some projects in mind for this year, now would be a good time to give a little thought to the things you’ll need. An air compressor with pneumatic tools, a compound miter saw, or a new set of power tools would be essentials tools to have.

As you move along into the year, think of how you could improve the way in which you get things done, in relation to your DIY projects. Call them resolutions if you will, but just as effective as new tools under the tree, adopting some new habits for the year ahead can make just as big an impact. For example, if you are between projects, take the time to clear out clutter. Take stock of your tools and your workspace. Get rid of the things that you don’t need and organize what you have such a way that you optimize your work area.

Think back. Is there a way that you could’ve completed last year’s projects more safely? Purchase safety goggles, hearing protection and a fire extinguisher for your workshop or garage. While organizing, plan for a prominent place to put these items so that you will be sure to use them during the year.

Lastly, take a good look at what you would like to accomplish during this year. What other bills do anticipate? Try to estimate realistically what each project will cost, allowing a little extra for surprises that may come up. Next, prioritize these projects and only work into your budget what will fit. Using that realistic approach, you will be less likely to feel that end-of-the-year pressure as the projects pile up.
