Hi, I'm Selene.
 
A few years ago, I didn't know how to use a drill. Now I want to teach you everything I've learned! 🫶🏼
Here's The Truth.
Does this sound familiar?
You've got Pinterest boards full of projects you'll never start. A garage full of half-finished attempts. That accent wall you wanted to paint six months ago that's still not done.
Social media makes it look so easy. But when you try it yourself, you get three steps in and freeze. "Which drill bit do I use?" "Why doesn't mine look like theirs?" "What if I mess this up?"
So you shove it in a corner, tell yourself you're "just not handy," and your home stays exactly the same.
Here's what nobody tells you: The problem isn't you. It's the way DIY is taught.
Most tutorials are made for people who already know how to DIY. They skip the beginner steps. They don't explain WHY you're doing something. They don't show you the mistakes or the moments of panic when things go wrong.
And that's why your projects stall out. Not because you can't do it, but because you weren't taught HOW to actually do it.
There's a better way. And I'm going to show you!

Why DIY Feels Hard (and How to Fix It)
Most tutorials assume you already know what you’re doing.
They skip beginner steps.
They don’t explain WHY.
They hide mistakes.
They don’t show the “oh crap” moments.

You don’t fail because you can’t DIY. You fail because no one ever taught you HOW to learn DIY.
Introducing: Ride or DIY
The DIY membership community where we do real projects together—with clear guidance, live support when you're stuck, and a community that actually gets it.
This isn't another collection of tutorials you'll watch and forget. This isn't a self guided, overpriced course that you buy and sits untouched. 
This is you, me, and a group of women working a project at the same time. With support. With accountability. With someone who remembers what it's like to be a beginner.
No more abandoned projects. No more confusion. No more DIY-ing alone.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
One Big Project Every Quarter
We tackle ONE major community build every 3 months. 
Full plans. Materials. Step-by-step support.

Q1 Project (Jan-Mar): The Viral Daybed
or
 Project of Your Choice
+
Live Support (2x Monthly)
Live zoom calls with me twice a month to get support and feedback on your project. Ask anything (there are no dumb questions). Get real-time troubleshooting so projects don’t stall. 
These aren't lectures. They're working sessions where you get UNSTUCK and keep moving forward.
+
Plus: Access to My Complete Build Plan and Video Library
Every plan I've ever created is instantly yours. 
Build whatever you want between our quarterly projects. 
No more buying plans one at a time.
+
And a Private Community That Has Your Back
A safe, inclusive space to connect with other DIYers at your level. Share progress. Troubleshoot together. Celebrate wins. You're not figuring this out alone anymore.
 
 
What Changes When You Join?
Immediately:
✓ You'll finally finish that project collecting dust in your garage
✓ You'll stop second-guessing every decision and trust yourself to figure it out
✓ You'll save hundreds (maybe thousands) by DIY-ing instead of buying
✓ You'll know exactly which tools to use and how to use them safely
✓ You'll create something beautiful that's actually YOURS
Long-term:
✓ You'll become the person who solves problems instead of waiting for someone else to do it (or paying someone to do it!)
✓ You'll build a home that truly reflects YOU, not what's trending
✓ You'll stop feeling intimidated in hardware stores
✓ You'll be the friend everyone calls for DIY advice
✓ You'll transform your relationship with yourself, proving you're even more capable than you thought
This Is For You If:
✅ You're tired of starting projects you never finish
✅ You want to build real furniture and tackle actual home projects
✅ You need clear guidance (not tutorials that skip important steps)
✅ You want accountability and community support
✅ You're ready to stop doubting yourself and start DIY-ing
This Isn’t For You If:

❌ You just want free content (my YouTube is perfect for that)
❌ You're not willing to invest time in actually building
❌ You expect results without putting in the work
❌ You're looking for a magic solution that doesn't require effort
What You Get:
  • One complete project per quarter with full plans, or project of your choice
  • 2 live support sessions every month (with recordings available for playback)
  • Access to my entire build plan library and resources
  • Private community access
  • Direct feedback on your projects
  • The confidence to tackle projects you never thought you could do
The Math: Buying just 1 self guided course costs more than this, and you'd still be DIY-ing alone without support.
The Real Value: This pays for itself in your first project when you realize how much money you're saving by not hiring costly contractors or exclusive interior designers.
But more importantly? You're investing in YOURSELF. In your confidence. In becoming the kind of person who doesn't wait for someone else to create the home you want.

Your Questions, Answered:
"I'm a complete beginner. Can I really do this?"
Yes. That's exactly who this is for. I explain every step like you've never touched a tool before. No assumptions. No skipped steps. Plus, you can ask me anything during live sessions.
"What if I mess it up?"
You WILL make mistakes, it's part of the process and that is ok. But the good news is, every mistake is fixable! Plus, I teach you how to avoid the common mistakes that actually cause problems. Remember: every expert was once a beginner who messed things up too.
"I don't have all the tools. Is that okay?"
Absolutely. Each project tells you exactly which tools you need. Most projects use basic tools beginners already have. For anything expensive, I show you how to borrow or rent until you're ready to invest.
"What if I can't make the live sessions?"
All sessions are recorded and available in the community. You can also post questions anytime and get answers from me and other members in the community chat.
"I don't have time for big projects."
Projects are designed to be completed over the quarter working a few hours per week. But you can go at your own pace. Some finish early, some take the full 12 weeks. It's flexible.
"Can I cancel anytime?"
Yes, this is a quarterly subscription. Cancel before your next quarter renews. But remember, your founding member rate only locks in if you stay active.
"I already bought the daybed plans. Should I still join?"
If you want live support, community accountability, and access to all my other plans + future quarterly projects, absolutely! Think of this as building WITH guidance, not alone.
"Will my rate really stay $129 forever?"
Yes. As long as you remain an active member, your founding rate never increases. This is my thank you for being an early supporter. New members joining later will pay more.
"What if I start and never finish?"
That's exactly why this exists. You're not alone anymore. You have live sessions when you're stuck, a community to keep you accountable, and clear step-by-step guidance. Finishing becomes the default, not the exception. 

The Bottom Line:
You can keep scrolling Pinterest, saving projects you'll never start, waiting for the "perfect time" that never comes.
Or you can decide that today is the day you stop waiting and start DIY-ing.
You can keep overspending on furniture and decor that feels generic and spaces that don't feel like yours.
Or you can learn to create beautiful things with your own hands for a fraction of the cost.
You can keep doubting yourself, thinking you're "just not handy," wondering why everyone else figured this out but you.
Or you can discover that you've been capable all along—you just needed someone to show you the right way.
The choice is yours.
You can keep waiting… or you can start learning.

This is the moment you stop doubting yourself and start creating the home you’ve always wanted.
Are you ready to Ride or DIY?
See you inside!  let’s build something beautiful together.
xoxo,
Selene
P.S. - Everyone started exactly where you are. Scared. Unsure. Convinced they couldn't do it. Prove yourself wrong. You can do it! The first project starts in January—but your access to the plans, the community, and the support? That starts the moment you join. Let's do this. 👊
