I thought I would take some of my favorite DIY projects from my "Too Many Ideas with Too Little Time" board and put a price on them. I'll do 3 for now . . .
Counting 13 up from the bottom based on height of the pin as I scrolled back up . . . (yes I did that)
This one is super easy. Buy extension rods and put in place. Pictured here are 6 rods, and based on Home Depot prices this project would cost you around $18. Or if you glued wooden dowels in there it could be more like $6 for the dowels and $2.50 for some wood glue, so $8.50. Just sayin'
Also, at Walmart you can buy pan organizers that start at 12.99. You decide if this one is worth it unless you have a plethora of extension rods around the house. I do like this look better though. Hm, decisions.
With this project you grab a paint swab with gradient shades and then paint each drawer of a dresser the different shades (in order . . .). Okay so in the directions for this the recommendation was to ask for the paint samples. I had never heard of this, so I asked the ever so wise Google about it. I didn't look around much for price, because . . . well . . . Home Depot has everything. Paint samples there are $2.94 for 8oz. The dresser pictured here has 5 drawers so that's $14.70 pre-tax and in PA $15.58 with tax. Then again if you don't have a paint brush . . . $2 for that and if you need to sand the drawers first let's buy a 5 pack for $3.50. So we are at just over $20 for this project. Since you probably don't want to buy a new dresser painted for you, this one is probably really worth it! :)
This is too cute to not try. Here we go: jar - if you don't have one then someone would probably give you one or you could buy a pack for $15, glow sticks- $9.03 for 100 pack at Walmart, diamond glitter $3 at JoAnn's: So assuming you have to buy it all we're talking around $27, but you could make a lot of these, lol. Let's hope you have a jar and let's go to the dollar store for a couple glow sticks . . . now this project is more like $5. $5 for Fairies in a jar . . . it's like a million Tinker Bells in your hands! Yes please!!

That's all for now, but I'll do more later!
