FAB Design & DIY

I love taking a space and giving it new life without spending a fortune. I flip rooms and furniture using creativity instead of budget. I collect old drawers, abandoned lamps, small pieces of furniture, chairs that need reupholstering, and give them a second chance.

I enjoy renewing a kitchen using paint, contact paper, new handles, plants, and better lighting rather than replacing everything. I love rearranging rooms, swapping furniture between spaces, moving artwork, trying new layouts, and seeing how much transformation can happen with what is already there.

I don’t believe in a single design style. I believe in layers of personality. I love combining different eras, textures, stories, and objects that may not “match” in theory but come together beautifully in reality. A room should reflect the people living in it, not a catalog. I don’t mind if materials are imperfect, aged, or mismatched. I see charm and authenticity in things with history.

For me, design isn’t about luxury or consumption; it’s about imagination, intention, and making a space feel warm, functional, and genuinely lived-in.
