scrolling wastes time!

Scrolling through videos of other people’s DIY projects can feel inspiring but often wastes time when you’re itching to learn the tools and skills to do it yourself. These videos showcase polished results—beautiful shelves or revamped rooms—but rarely teach you how to use a drill, hammer, or tape measure to achieve your own home improvements. Forge & Flourish cuts through the fluff, teaching you 12 essential tools and 20 practical skills, like measuring accurately and drilling securely, so you can save $500–$1,000 a year on projects like building shelves ($30 vs. $300) or mounting wall art, empowering you to create your own success.

slash handyman costs

Hiring a handyman can set you back $50-$100 per hour, with simple tasks like hanging shelves or installing wall anchors costing $150-$300 per job. For example, mounting a TV bracket professionally averages $200. Forge & Flourish teaches you to handle these tasks yourself, saving you $500-$1,000 annually on basic home fixes, as outlined in our fastener crash course and toolkit essentials.

avoid pricey furniture costs

Custom or store-bought furniture, like a basic wooden shelf, can cost $100-$500. With our step-by-step guidance on using tools like the cordless drill and electric sander, you’ll learn to build your own shelves or refinish thrifted pieces for under $50 in materials. This could save you $300-$1,500 yearly, turning your DIY skills into budget-friendly home upgrades.

cut repair expenses

Minor home repairs, such as fixing a loose cabinet or patching drywall, often run $200-$400 when outsourced. Forge & Flourish empowers you to master these fixes with clear tutorials, like our sanding techniques and hand tool lessons, potentially saving you $600-$2,000 a year by keeping repairs in-house.
