Hello home, girl!

making a home on a tiny budget.

A necessary and awesome return to DIY

Mission DIY returns!
Mission DIY returns!

After a necessary sabbatical, I am returning to DIY and hellohomegirl.com again! So much has changed since the last post! However, I intend to continue my mission of being a resource for DIY enthusiasts and new homeowners on a small budget! I still feel called to speak up for people like me. People who bought a house with such little knowledge but a heap of anxiety.

Why return to DIY?

A source of my motivation to return to the trenches stems from a super cool feature! First, I am featured as a featured blogger over at ShoutOut DFW under “The Characteristics & Habits That Matter.” Additionally, I have an individual feature that shares more about me as well. So exciting! This is the first time this has happened to me, so I am nervous — but enthused — to share my knowledge to greater masses. Mission DIY is reaching more people!

What’s next?

The next article will be a continuation of my last. It will provide tips on hiring out projects that you don’t want to DIY. Sounds counterintuitive, huh? Well, it actually isn’t contra to a DIYer’s principles. It actually aligns perfectly! It will all make sense in no time.

Please consider subscribing to my site. You’ll get notifications of when I post. I have some good ideas and tips coming down the hatch!

I cannot wait to showcase all the projects we have worked on in this time away from the blog! (A HUGE DIY transformation is going on as we speak!) Even though I have been inactive here on the blog, I have remained active on my Instagram page. For all the latest news and real-time DIY and home decor, catch me over there! And to tide you over, you can read my last article or get a little information about me!

Until then, see you soon!

-Felicia.

I didn't finish. I didn't even try. I didn't feel I didn't finish.

I didn't even try. I didn't feel like working on my #oneroomchallenge project with the tragedies of recent. I don't work when I don't feel it's conducive. I'll get to when I feel better. This is where the hallway will remain for a little bit.

RIP to the victims of Buffalo, NY and Uvalde, TX.

I'm totally enjoying seeing all of the day 1 posts I'm totally enjoying seeing all of the day 1 posts of the @oneroomchallenge folks are posting today. Later, I'll be browsing and commenting. Even if you're not participating, it's still so worthwhile to follow the #orcat hashtag for fantastic projects and people to follow throughout these eight weeks. I recommend finding 5 people to projects to follow from beginning to end. Then, take a look week to week to see if any pictures from other projects catches your eye. Big inspiration abounds! This time, I'm giving my hallway a makeover! It's something simple but needed. Find out my why and see my top three mood boards on the blog. Shout out to those of you who already peeped the blog post via today's stories.

Which room are you looking forward to seeing makeovers for? Looking for some kitchen inspiration? How about a dining room? Maybe you're looking for a hallway. πŸ€·πŸΎβ€β™€οΈ

Good morning from a chilly "snow" day in Texas! Th Good morning from a chilly "snow" day in Texas! The power went off when we were sleeping, but now it's back on! πŸ™πŸΎ I think it's time to go heat up some tea like I'm sipping in this photograph! Speaking of tea, I have been blessed to spill tea with seven other fantastic bloggers in the #punchbowlsocial blog hop! I hope you can check out and discover some new DIY inspiration. What I love about this blog hop is that you get to learn about people in a way that IG doesn't suffice. Even in reading posts this morning, I've been able to connect to others and learn about their why.

So grab a beverage of your choice (tea, punch, or anything else πŸ˜‰) and join us in the blog hop! The link to my post is in my bio; within the post, you'll find links to everyone's blogs. Also, I've tagged everyone's IG on the 2nd slide of this post.
