Sherry and John Petersik are self-proclaimed “DIY dorks” who love to work on home improvement projects and share their experiences along the way. Their blog, younghouselove.com, has been such a hit that they have recently published a book with the same title. Joining the likes of design*sponge (I’m sensing a trend here,) this fun collection of deceptively easy home improvement projects and decorating tips is the perfect incentive to actually pick out a project and get to work on it (instead of just daydreaming about what projects you would love to work on.) Young House Love is geared towards first-time homeowners with a need for budget-friendly projects with style, but most of the projects work for anyone looking to redecorate or change up their home’s look. With just a few basic tools, any homeowner/DIY enthusiast can transform a bland wall or recover a headboard in little time and with little expense. I’ve just gotten my copy and am excited to get to work (if I can get beyond my daydreaming stage…)
Here’s before and after shot of their living room to help get a feel for Sherry and John’s decorating style (also, who out there doesn’t love a good before and after shot?)
