DIY Five Everyday Items This Year

This new year is all about becoming more self-sufficient here at Wolf Pack Woodcraft! I have a list of five everyday items to DIY this year, that I’m sharing with you today.

  1. Laundry Detergent: This may be weird, but I am most excited about making my own laundry detergent. DIY laundry detergent seems like an easy project that lets one control what goes into their detergent and stretches the dollar.
  2. Cheese: So excited to make cheese at home! The first DIY cheese adventure that we will be partaking in this year is mozzarella. I am dreaming of a pizza with homemade crust, sauce, AND cheese.
  3. Vanilla: Storebought pure vanilla is so expensive. I didn’t realize it was something that could be DIY. When I learned that making my own pure vanilla extract was two ingredients and some time, it hit my must-try project list.
  4. Taco Seasoning: Tacos are a favorite around here, but taco seasoning packets can add up quickly. This one is going to be a simple and affordable DIY. Since I have bulk spices on hand, it’s just a matter of blending different ratios together to get the best taco flavor.
  5. Garlic Powder: Currently I buy garlic powder in bulk to save money, as we use so much of it. With garlic bulbs always on hand and an amazing dehydrator at home, garlic powder is begging me to be a DIY project this year.

I am so excited to start on these five everyday items to DIY this year. Sharing the journey with you all will be the very best part, so make sure to stay tuned. I would love to know what DIY projects you have lined up this year, let me know in the comments.
