Occasionally we get up to some small home improvement stuff. Neither of us is all that experienced with building stuff, so we learn together. The most recent was this spice rack for our pantry door. Freed up about 2 shelves of cabinet space, plus a drawer we were using for the foils, and now I can see all my spices without having to empty a cabinet!
We got the instructions for the foil rack (bottom of the door) from here, and the spice rack here on the Shanty 2 Chic blog. The instructions said it would take something like 1 nap time (not a useful time measure for 2 adults!), but anyway it took us a couple of days because we painted it by hand in the garage and had to let it dry overnight between coats. No one wants a shoddy paint job! The project cost us about $40,and Lowe's did all of the wood cutting for us for free! Pretty sweet deal!
