I love resources that encourage self-sufficiency – and help us save money. I also love DIY projects – like my DIY rain barrel, the kids’ playhouse, and our compost bin made from old pallets.
Youtube is my “go to” site for DIY videos. It’s is an awesome resource for DIY information. I have bookmarked my favorite DIY channels – the videos that help us save money, learn new skills, or just plain entertain. Check them out:
Steve Ramsey (channel link) has several videos for the home woodworker. He keeps things simple – and uses readily available materials. Check out this inexpensive and awesome bench made from standard 2×4’s:
Do It On A Dime (channel link) will help you save money. Her channel focuses on frugal tips – like DIY jewelry cleaner – and organizing clutter – like organizing a baby’s nursery. My favorite recent video is about building a raised bed garden:
Wranglerstar (channel link) has one of the coolest Youtube channels. He lives with his family on their homestead and has videos about everything from beekeeping to building a ram pump. I really enjoyed his series about building a greenhouse for his family. Here’s part 1:
Down To Earth Woodworks takes his time and goes into detail when describing his projects. I always look forward to each of his new videos.. He goes into detail and takes his time. Videos provide a balance of information with demonstration. Check out part 1 of building a miter saw stand:
