Indoor DIY is where function meets creativity, and where the details, though often time-consuming, really start to tell a story.
There’s something deeply rewarding about restoring the inside of a home with your own hands. We’ve tackled a wide range of indoor projects, from scraping back layers of paint on old timber windows to restoring beautiful Matai floorboards that had been hidden for years. These projects take time, patience, and a good sense of humour. They’re messy, often slow, but incredibly satisfying.
This section shares the projects that have shaped our living spaces. You’ll find stories and tips from our journey as we’ve revived rooms, repaired what we could, and worked to bring out the character in old materials. It’s not about perfection. It’s about learning as we go, respecting the materials, and putting care into each step.
We believe every small job contributes to something bigger. Whether you’re sanding back a windowsill, repainting a tired corner, or dreaming up your next renovation, I hope this space gives you a bit of confidence and inspiration to start. With the right tools, a little time, and some elbow grease, there’s a lot you can do indoors.
