Real Projects

Real projects are the heart of Shackadoo.

Homeowner, DIY and contractor projects worth seeing — the idea, the story, what it cost, what worked and what people learned along the way.

What belongs here?

Everything from a clever $40 improvement to a major renovation.

DIY & small wins

Paint, storage, first places, furniture, weekend projects and ideas regular people can try.

Homeowner renovations

Before-and-after photos, approximate cost, what worked and what they would do differently.

Professional work

Contractor and designer projects with the problem solved, what made the project interesting and who did the work.
