It’s done! My DIY range hood is finished. I LOVE how it looks. It makes a world of a difference in my kitchen. Here’s how it looked before: And after! I removed the microwave, installed a fan, built the new hood and then screwed it into the existing cabinet above, then tiled the space behind…

Modern Finished Basement Ideas
We are in the process of getting ready to finish the basement. Basement finishing can be a huge headache, but it can also be super exciting and fun.
