DIY

Dunn DIY is your resource for inspiration and advice no matter where you are on your DIY journey.

Here, you’ll find hundreds of project plans and tutorials based on the trusted expertise of a hundred-year-old family-run business. Dunn DIY launched its first project back in 2014, and our journey since then has been to make big ideas (and the tools you need to bring them to life) less intimidating. Always wanted to build an Adirondack chair? We’ve got you covered. Never used a level? We’ll show you how

As an online extension of our physical Dunn Lumber stores, we don’t just show you how to make things—we’re here to answer questions every step of the way. Dunn DIY is more than just materials lists and how-tos—we’re a community of creators of all skill levels and styles. 

You’ll find new projects and guides posted right here every other week to keep you inspired and prepared for whatever project you decide to conquer (and for the weeks in between, we have hundreds of tutorials in our project archive).

Whether you’re new to DIYing or a seasoned pro, we can’t wait to see how you make it yours.

  • About Dunn DIY

    Home is what you make it. It's a feeling. It's a place where you can settle in and live out the truest expression of yourself. Your home is your canvas, your signature. It's not a place to be ordinary. You're not. And neither are the spaces where we live. They are inspired. They are unique. They are reflections of our dreams, hopes, and aspirations. This is your chance to transform that imagined future into a reality - with wood stain, wall paint, and nails. Here you can do it yourself. Here you can be elegant, but gritty, independent, but empowered. It is a place where you can inspire and be inspired, a place where you can make it yours.
