“Do-it-yourself is an ethic that is practiced by many different people. It is an attitude of self-empowerment and openness to learning. Do-it-yourselfers include folks who garden, cook “from scratch,” make clothes and handcrafts, build and fix things, and practice healing arts, to give just a few examples.
Anarchist punk culture uses do-it-yourself, or d.i.y. as a slogan to live by. Publishing a “zine,” being in a band, dumpster diving perfectly good food, squatting, activism, and skill-share events are all manifestations of the d.i.y. attitude.” ~Sandor Ellix Katz in Wild Fermentation
Just a gal who gets a kick out of DIY projects, laughing with her family, and keeping a record of all the in-betweens.
