Welcome to Fixer Folk
Hi, I’m Ellery, the creator of Fixer Folk. I think anyone can make a home better without spending much money. With a few tools, some curiosity, and a little courage, you can fix and build many things.
How it began
In 2018, I picked up an old toolbox and fixed a small leak. One repair led to another, and I soon loved making things last longer and work better. I now use AI to sketch tricky ideas before I grab my drill.
What you’ll find here
- Easy, step-by-step DIY guides
- Quick repair tips
- Low-cost, upcycled projects
- Ideas for every season
- Tools and tricks that really help
Everything here is clear, honest, and doable—no fancy words or gimmicks.
Made for makers
Fixer Folk is more than a website; it’s a friendly group of people who like to build and repair. Whether you’re patching your first wall or giving an old cabinet new life, we’re here to cheer you on (and share an AI shortcut now and then).
Thanks for visiting, and welcome to the Fixer Folk community!
