I’m Lindsay!
About Me
Hi, I’m Lindsay, the DIY Queen behind @Frills_and_Drills. I’m a self-taught expert in DIY and home improvement. I tackle things from wall treatments to cabinetry and custom furniture.
My journey began in 2011 with our first home on a tight budget. I borrowed my dad’s saw and transformed our space using old furniture, inexpensive materials, and YouTube tutorials. In 2016, after leaving my banking job to raise my son, I turned my DIY passion into a full-time job, tackling projects during nap times.
2021
During the pandemic, as more people turned to DIY projects, my social media began to take off, and by 2021, I reached 1 million Instagram followers! From kitchen islands to faux fireplaces, every project taught me new skills and boosted my confidence.
In 2022, We moved into our current home for better school zones for our two sons. Now, my oldest son loves to help with projects, and our family continues to inspire my work.
Today
Join me in creating beautiful, functional spaces for me and my family. Catch me in leggings and tennis shoes, grab some Oreos, and join the fun!
I share my projects to inspire and empower others, showing that if I can do it, they can too.
