I started doing DIY projects a few years ago. Now, DIY is my favourite hobby! It makes me get creative. That's really important to me. I always have a lot of ideas in my head, and DIY lets me bring these ideas to life!
My latest DIY project was making a small table. It took a lot of hard work, but the table turned out beautiful. My parents even put it in our living room because they love it so much! Now I see my table every day. Every time I look at it, I feel proud of myself! I now know I can make beautiful furniture—even if it's a big challenge.

For me, DIY is a great way to relax. That's important because I get stressed easily. After a busy day of schoolwork, I love to relax with a fun DIY project.
My favourite DIY project is knitting. I knit all kinds of things! I love to knit blankets, sweaters, hats and mittens. When my hands are busy with knitting, I start to relax right away. Another great thing about knitting? I can share my knitted items with my friends and family. I love giving these things to people as gifts. People love them! I'm so glad that my home-made items bring people joy.
