D.I.Y. Because who wants to pay for something when you can make it yourself?

Do-it-yourself projects have become a major trend across the country because of their relative ease, low cost and opportunity to customize. Whether it be re-creating expensive styles, making personalized objects or just adding an individual touch to an everyday task, the option to D.I.Y has allowed people to put their personal spin on anything in life and experience the joy of customization. Here we explore six hands-on D.I.Y projects that students at MVHS enjoy: cooking, crocheting, bullet journaling, calligraphy, origami and using coloring books.
