Summer is coming to an end, and with it the dwindling of outside projects. Sweating in the yard is almost done, soon bundling up and working in the yard will be upon us. (Yep, always more yard work!) There is still time for one or two more projects, so grab pencils and start planning. Projects in our house involve lots of planning, head scratching, research, and then some shopping. An important part of planing is cost. The best way to keep that cost down is coupons, like the coupons for Home Depot you can find.
With coupons in hand and a good plan, most projects are within reach- within reason of course. I wouldn’t try doing big plumbing jobs, but I do think I could put in a new toilet. So please keep in mind a good chunk of home improvement needs someone who is handy. Also, if a specific skill set is needed for your project, get in lots of practice if possible. I would personally rather practice soldering pipes on some scrap then puncture a hole in water heater and drench the basement.
The last project we did was re-tool an old clothing rack into a metal framed bookshelf. The outcome? Success and a less cluttered workroom. On the topic of clutter, try to keep your mess to a minimum, and your significant other will greatly appreciate the effort. And the coupons we found worked too! We went to Coupons.Answers.com and were able to find a 10% off coupon, which at least covered sales tax and a bit more. In the process of hunting down the coupons the most useful was definitely Answers.com.
