Okay for those of you who do not know DIY stands for it is "Do It Yourself". I think most everyone knows that since there are TV shows and thousands of articles on the Internet and in magazines that use this phrase.

What we are going to take a look at in this article is specifically DIY furniture plans. These are plans that are for a piece of furniture such as a chair or table or china cabinet etc.. First of all I would like to let you know that one of the biggest draws to DIY is saving money. You do the project yourself so there are no labor cost involved.

Having said that you are probably going to find out that in the long run your DIY project will end up being a little more expensive than you think. I am not saying that you cannot save money, but let's be real here you are going to be buying only the materials that you need to complete your project.

Buying materials in small quantities is generally more expensive than buying in bulk which is what most of the big manufacturing companies do. I am not trying to steer you away from building your own furniture, I just want you to know up front if you do not watch what you pay for your materials you will end up spending more money.

DIY furniture plans (or any other plans for that matter) will help you to use your money wisely. First of all almost all of the better plans available today are going to give you a step-by-step procedure to follow to construct your project. This will save your time by doing the construction more efficiently.

Most better quality plans will also include a complete materials list that will show you exactly what you need to build your project. This list will include the amount of lumber that you need the amount of hardware that you will need and even the amount of finishing materials that you will need.

By using your plans to guide you through every aspect of your project, from the materials list to showing you how to build the project in an ordered progression you will make the most efficient use of your time and resources.

If you are new to woodworking a good set of plans can be your best friend. It does not matter if you are building furniture or a new storage shed. Your plans will keep you on track, give you more confidence that you can do the project and give you a completed project that you will be proud of.

One of the main advantages to doing a project yourself is that you will know the quality of the workmanship that went into it. Another advantage is that you can build exactly what you want. You will have a costume built project that will have all the design and style elements that you and your family want in that project.

Woodworking is one of the most rewarding hobbies there is. When you can take a pile of lumber and turn into a beautifully handcrafted piece of furniture it is easy to see why. You are using your time to create something that is useful, in some cases that will create value to your home, but above all that you have built something with your own two hands that will make you proud. Good luck with your DIY Project.
