Don't start a project that you can't handle.
We are all guilty of it, biting off more than we can chew. Complete one project before you start the next.
Do your research prior to starting the project.
Talk to professionals, even the staff at Home Depot would be able to give you great insight on your project and effient was it get what your looking for.
Don't work in a room that is cluttered.
Seems to shock me how many times people will move an item at least a dozen times before they will actually move it out of the room. Clearing out the room prior to starting a project will help you get the project done quicker and it will reduce the stress, you are also less likely to break an item or hurt yourself.
Do your shopping first.
Plan ahead, figure out what you need and by 10% more of the product. It is easier to return the extra, than hopping into your car and running around while your in the middle of the project.
Don't break the bank.
Set a budget, most people end up over their heads. Figuring out what you can afford and take little steps. It is really smart and rewarding when the project is complete.
