My love for DIY was born!
I was a Kindergarten teacher, so of course, I didn’t have unlimited funds, but I was not going to let a tight budget stop me. I began researching the look I wanted for my home in high-end stores that were way out of my price range. I gathered inspiration from these stores and took myself down to the thrift store to recreate the same looks for less.
I would find vases that I could spray paint, furniture I could refinish, or fabric I could use to reupholster. I have to tell you that I became hooked...it was so fun and such a creative outlet for me.
My first home out of college was a duplex and I had big plans for how I wanted to decorate my space.
The best part is by far the joy I get in teaching others on Youtube.
When I created Liz Fenwick DIY in 2018 I took a chance that I could find a group of creatives who would be interested in how to DIY from a teacher at heart. I still can’t believe that 3 years later, DIYing my home is my full-time job.
