I’m so excited to share that I wrote a book!
DIY Backyard Games is a collection of 13 DIY tutorials to make for weekend family fun.
More than the game tutorials, this book is a handbook to DIY. The first section is dedicated to basic tools and materials that you will be using in DIY projects. What type of saw should you be investing in? What’s a nominal measurement? Let’s take the intimidation out of DIY and have some fun creating backyard games!
