I think my worst DIY fail was a plumbing job. Ended up with a leak, but a wrench and plumber’s tape saved the day. Now, I leave the big stuff to the pros. 😂

Oh man, I’ve been there! 😅 Once I accidentally painted an entire wall the wrong color. Ended up making it an accent wall instead – problem solved and it looked pretty cool!

Oh man, tried to hang some floating shelves and ended up drilling straight into a pipe 🤦♂️💦... panic mode for sure, but I shut off the water, patched it up, and finally got the shelves up (still slightly crooked tho 😅). Learned my lesson: double check those walls!

To fix it, I carefully peeled off the paint and sanded down the area. Then I repainted it and added a clear coat for protection. It took some extra work, but it turned out even better than before!

Once I tried installing shelves and drilled into the wrong spot, hitting a wire! I had to patch the hole, reroute the wire, and triple-check with a stud finder before drilling again—lesson learned the hard way! 😅
