One of the joys of blogging is finding talent and passing it along to all of you! If you’re not familiar with Brittany from Pretty Handy Girl, then you are definitely missing out. Brittany is a true handy girl and she takes the time to explain in detailed tutorials how you can be a handy girl too!
Here is just a sampling of some of the things she has created. Click on the title or pic to be taken to the full post.
- How to Turn a Closet into a Reading Nook Isn’t this adorable? Read the post to find out exactly how she did it.
- How to Install Antique Heart Pine Wood Floors Oh my goodness, I adore these reclaimed farmhouse floors! Our last house had heart pine floors and I miss them. This lucky girl found her floors on Craigslist of all places and was brave enough to tackle this project.
- How to Build a Mudroom Coatrack and Bench Uh, yeah. She built all of this! Built it! Ah-mazing I tell you! And again, she takes the time to teach you how you can build one too.
If some of these advanced projects seem a bit intimidating (because let’s face it, this girl possesses some mad skills), never fear. Brittany also takes the time to teach you to do simple things like how to get rid of a popcorn ceiling, how to make felted roses, and even how to install a new toilet seat!
Go visit Brittany, tell her I sent you, and give her a follow! You won’t regret it! Thanks Brittany for allowing me to feature you and for inspiring me to bust out my compound miter saw. I hope one day when I grow up I can be more like you!

Great feature Beth. Brittany blows me away with her mad power tool skillz! Love her.
I have been a follower of Brittany's. She's is so multi talented that it's almost scary! I wonder if I could entice her to come finish up some projects around here?
That little reading nook is just adorable! My son has two closets in his room and we might have to try the reading nook in one of them. Great idea! 🙂
Happy Monday!
Beth, I love that you featured Brittany, she's so awesome! Every time I have a "handy" type of question I go straight to her blog 🙂
How sweet of you to "feature" Brittany. She certainly is an amazing woman with many, many talents. I'm already a follower and continue to watch with awe.

Love Brittany!
That is beautiful!
Nobody would ever know you did that yourself!

Sharing another's blog only broadens our world. Thanks for sharing today!!1
That reading nook looks like the perfect place to curl up with a book. And those wood floors…talk about talent! Wow!
Wow! I'm impressed! After visiting her blog, I'm considering maybe taking a woodworking course. My hubby doesn't like doing renos, and I haven't got a clue what to do with wood (well, other than burn it in the fireplace), but our home really needs some updating!! Thanks for featuring her!
I am doing a playroom re-do and had planned on a reading nook and in my looking around I found Brittany on google. She has done exactly what I had in my design so it sure was nice to see it actually done the way I had planned on doing it. What amazed me is that SHE did it herself, now that is the Queen of DIY if you ask me!! Kathysue
amazing! love the mudroom coatrack & bench, so rich!

Beth, you are too cute. Thanks for the feature.
By the way, you are so handy yourself! And, I'm glad you are going to break out your compound miter saw. Mine was one of my favorite Mother's Day presents ;-D.
