The realities of home improvement

I stumbled across this picture of home renovation realities and had to post it up for our readers - so funny, so true!

Matt and Sean have put together this great image showing the theory vs the reality of home improvement.

My favourite:

  • Theory - Saving money you would have been paying someone else
  • Reality - Paying a professional twice as much to fix all your mistakes

Or the one where everyone now wants your DIY help (read, to do it for them) because now "you're Mr Fix-It!" (or Miss Fix-It as the case may be). The reputation I've gotten amongst my friends is definitely that - I spent Friday painting a friends spare room, Saturday working in someone else's garden and Sunday fixing a shed door. Unacceptable!

Nice work guys, genius!
