The Staff Room of Nightmares

DIY projects often make their way outside of the house. Sure, people love to remodel their own homes, but sometimes they're also given free rein over other spaces in their lives - such as their office cubicle or even their staff room! This DIY lover obviously decided to grab the opportunity to decorate their staff room, and they opted for a wet forest floor theme. And there's no doubt about the fact that it's very different.

For some, this would be the staff room of nightmares, especially as it looks as though this design has actually been made using plastic flooring! But others might find it pretty intriguing.

Seconds Before Disaster

We love seeing people taking on their own DIY projects, and we really do have to admire their bravery in attempting something new. And while some people absolutely nail their first attempt at DIY, there are others who scare us to death. You know, like this guy who decided to lift up his car using a tree. To make matters even more terrifying, he then proceeded to stand under it while fixing it!

This just looks like a disaster waiting to happen, and we really hope this guy is ok after this. We bet the last thing he wanted to hear was the sound of snapping branches.

"I Knew That Stud Was in There Somewhere"

Contractors can be pretty expensive, which is why we really don't blame people for giving DIY a go themselves. But if you're going to try these things for the first time yourself with no prior DIY knowledge, you need to be ready for any potential problems or consequences! And it seems as though this woman took the many holes in her wall with a pinch of salt when she hung her TV on the wall herself.

Thankfully, this is a pretty easy fix, so this woman won't have to worry about these holes for too much longer. And we bet she watches TV with a smile on her face now.

Recessed Lighting on a Budget

If you're looking to make a few home improvements to your house, then why not think about some new lighting? Switching up the lighting in your house can be a real game changer, and this person obviously realized that when they decided to ditch their old lights for some recessed ones instead. At least, that was their plan. They didn't want to pay for a contractor, so they attempted to do it themselves.

As you can see, the attempt wasn't very successful! The "recessed" lighting isn't exactly recessed, and the whole thing looks pretty mediocre. But at least they tried to do something themselves, we guess?

A Sprinkling of DIY

Home improvement projects can be big or small - and sometimes, they can be tiny! And when this person wanted to renovate their kitchen, they decided to first start with the countertops. Sure, they could have opted for marble or quartz, but they decided to complete this DIY project on a budget. They made their way into their kitchen cupboards, pulled out their giant packet of sprinkles, and got to work.

Yes, that really is a countertop made from different colored sprinkles! We've never seen anything quite like it before, and there's probably a good reason for that. It's certainly unique, though.

Barbie's Dreamhouse Is Sturdier Than This

You don't have to be a professional contractor to know that the roof of any house is extremely important. A roof needs to be well made, well maintained, and fixed to a high standard to maintain the integrity of the house and the safety of the individuals who live in it. But if you need an example of what not to do, take a look at this! This roof is unmatched - and not in a good way.

We don't know if this is a DIY project gone wrong or the result of a contractor who didn't have their coffee in the morning, but we feel sorry for the people in this house when it rains.

That Seems Safe...

When it comes to the electrics in your home, you can't play around. Faulty wiring or a damaged plug could result in a devastating fire - so why would you risk it? Well, it seems as though this DIY novice wasn't too worried when they realized that their outlet and their plug were damaged. They decided to put a quick fix in place, but last time we checked, metal scissors and electricity don't mix!

This picture is making us feel extremely uncomfortable. And while we really hope everyone in this house is ok, we also urge them to use an electrician in the future!
