Great find Julie!!!
ReplyDeleteThis website looks great! I love to fix things for those who may be unaware of my personality. I like how the website shows the difficulty and also estimated amount of time to fix something. I think that is great - especially the time piece. Sometimes I start something thinking I will have enough time but then I realize I don't. I think this is a nice gage for that. Also just to add my two cents, this website seems easy to use but if you are still confused, You Tube it! Sometimes I understand what they are saying but its hard to relate to actually doing it, so with You Tube there are so many things that also show you how to accomplish different things. My recent You Tube find was how to get pomegranate seeds out (I do realize that is not fixing something though). I read it, and tried unsuccessfully but then I watched it and it was so super easy!
