Design Ideas for Do-It-Yourselfers at Curbly.com

Do-It-Yourself Home Design and Improvements at Curbly.com.

I get a kick out of improving my home, but I’m not always very creative when it comes to adding some design to what already functions. That’s why I’ve been checking out Curbly.com more and more lately. When you first visit Curbly to look for design ideas for your own home you’ll probably be completely overwhelmed by everything that’s available.

That’s because Curbly is more than just a “home design and improvement idea” site in the traditional sense of showing you a bunch of ideas one after the other. Instead, Curbly is a living, breathing, active community of members (myself included) who share their own home improvement ideas, offer suggestions to comments, blog about their projects and provide plenty of great photos of their own. It’s like having a whole team of do-it-yourselfers living in your home helping you with any questions you might have or inspiration you might need.

You’ll quickly see that the great thing about Curbly is the many different kinds of resources you have available to you. They have a How To section, an Inspiration area, News items, a Question and Answer area, Community forums and of course a great profile system where you can look up members and make yourself known.

And the topics they cover are as diverse as the members and locations they call home. The articles and posts range from building your own furniture to arts and crafts decorations to saving money to flipping a house! I’m always astounded and amazed at what I come across each week on Curbly.
