Novice DIYers' take on a full bathroom reno! Interview

• 7.09.2019

Remember that 6-week full bathroom reno I shared a couple months back? That gorgeous space belongs to my friends, Gabriela and Matt, who were brand new to this kind of DIY effort when I guided them through that one. Well, they're sharing some lessons learned today!

Can you tackle a complete bathroom reno as a new DIYer? What challenges might come up? How do you get the tools to actually complete the job?

Today on the Your Home Story podcast, we interview my friends, "novice DIYers," about their recently completed mid-century modern inspired bathroom makeover. Hear their tips for staying on track, actually doing the work and what they plan on doing next time to make their project go even smoother.

We chatted about:

• The One Room Challenge bathroom makeover reveal (with all the before/after photos).
• My tutorial for laying big hexagon tile.

YouTube videos that our first-timers loved:

• Candadian DIY channel, including lots of drywall/painting videos they used
• Schluter Ditra installation
• Ikea Godmorgon vanity installation
