Practical DIY home repair and painting how-to guides for women
At NestKoo we share DIY home repair and painting instructional guides, with a focus on empowering and teaching women how to carry out basic fixes around the home.
Our goal is to show women and girls that DIY home improvement is not just for men. From choosing tools to learning the correct techniques for using them, maintaining and fixing your own home can be a reality, even if you are a total beginner or were always told that power tools aren’t for girls.
