At I Breathe I DIY, I’m passionate about helping you learn how to do a variety of projects using different materials. I love teaching you the steps, and explaining the materials so you have the confidence to do-it-yourself. I repair, reuse, and recycle whenever possible- because it’s the right thing to do. Inspiring you to try something new and creative is why I do this.
