The Dewalt DCP580B 20V Max Brushless Planer #DIY tool

We do a lot of DIY projects using wood and have a decent collection of tools to get the job done. The latest addition to our tools is the Dewalt DCP580B 20V Max Brushless planer. A planer is a really useful tool to have, as it has lots of varying uses. The DEWALT DCP580B 20V Max Brushless planer we are using is the cordless version, and it comes as a bare tool without any batteries. Since, most of our power tools are Dewalt we already have batteries to go with them. It is always best to use 3 Ah batteries or greater, so there is enough power to get the job done.

We have a four panel steel door for our main entrance. Although it was already primed when we purchased it, it had never been painted over.

Building our own rolling DIY Door and Organizing with Rev-a-shelf

We love the concept of barn doors, rolling door, and pocket doors because they are neat and trendy! We were so excited that we were able to include a sliding door in our #BathroomReno project. We had a closet outside the washroom, where we keep our linen. To access this closet we needed to come out of the washroom, which was not convenient. When we were planning our renovation, we decided to bring the closet inside the bathroom, which would allow us to have more space and use it functionally.  

Adding Style and Sophistication with Delta Dryden #BathroomReno

Building a Custom Vanity #BathroomReno DIY

Organizing using Chalkboard Tape

I enjoyed using removable chalkboard tape and organizing. This is an easy and practical way to organize anything we want.
