Re: how to start....

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @bowerhd. It's amazing to have you join us, and many thanks for your question.

 

Congratulations on your new home; I'm sure this is an exhilarating time for you. I trust our members will be full of helpful advice and have some great inspiration to get you started on many D.I.Y. projects. It might take living in the home for a couple of months to really get your head around what you would like to change and what priority those fall in. I'd encourage you to write down a list of everything you love and everything you don't. From there, you can decide what takes priority and of those which will make the biggest impact.

 

You might like to check out our top 10 most popular kitchen projects, top 10 most popular kitchen projects, and top 10 most popular indoor furniture projects for some inspiration.

Re: How to start....

Hello @bowerhd 

 

Welcome to Workshop! This is it! The little big steps to bringing that look you want. Don't hold yourself back and let your dream take shape. With all renovators I always recommend to tackle 1 project at a time but @MitchellMc 's recommendation make a list!

 

Cheers,

Red
