/diy/ - Do It Yourself

I do furniture restoration and it's a great trade if you like to be creative and work with your hands. People are willing to pay a premium for you if you do above average work. The best part about it is you are generally dealing with people that aren't penny pinching, and the fact that the job market isn't flooded. I tried several trades before I stuck with this one, and eventually I want to learn woodworking so I can create furniture myself. Dip your toes into everything and see what really clicks with you. Don't just do it for the higher pay grade. If you enjoy what you do and do good work, the money will come.
