Hi, I’m Ellery — the creator behind Fixer Folk. I’m passionate about turning everyday spaces into something a little more beautiful, a little more functional, and a whole lot more personal.
I started this site with one simple goal: to help people like you feel confident tackling small repairs, creative upgrades, and meaningful DIY projects at home. Whether it’s fixing a leaky faucet, building a custom shelf, or refreshing a room with budget-friendly decor, I believe that hands-on work brings both joy and pride.
How It All Began
This journey started with a toolbox, a handful of ideas, and a lot of trial and error. I’ve always loved figuring things out — how to make something last longer, work better, or look nicer without breaking the bank. Over time, what began as weekend fixes became a full-on passion for home improvement and creative design.
What You’ll Find Here
Fixer Folk is all about:
- Easy-to-follow DIY tutorials
- Smart home repair tips
- Upcycled and budget-friendly ideas
- Seasonal decor inspiration
- Tools, tricks, and resources that actually work
Everything I share is meant to be approachable, encouraging, and real — no fluff, just projects you can actually do.
Built for Makers Like You
Fixer Folk is more than a site — it’s a space for doers, tinkerers, and anyone who believes a home is always a work in progress. I created it to empower people who want to build, fix, and improve with confidence.
Thanks for stopping by and welcome to the Fixer Folk community.
