Weekend Project Ideas

70 items

The list of things you mean to do around the house only ever grows, because starting requires choosing and choosing feels like work. Pick before the shops shut and the weekend already has a shape. Seventy projects sized to a weekend rather than a summer, spanning the house, the bathroom, the kitchen, the garden and the garage. Deliberately no extensions and no rewiring: the satisfying ones are small, visible, and done before the week starts again.
