Quickly before we talk about DIY advice, we’ve just completed our first year in the Charity Challenge, and I want to thank everyone for contributing and coming out and supporting us. I also want to thank all of my sponsors for supporting us, although I’m sure you weren’t exactly aware of what you’re getting yourself into. I saw a lot of opportunities for improvement and I’m excited to continue on into next year.

But now for our topic….

Those of you that know me probably realize that I’m not the craftiest person. However, we had a ceiling fan that was in need of a little modern touch. It worked well, it just didn’t match the look of the home. I found a great article on Pinterest that showed me how to repaint a ceiling fan, so I took it down, painted it, and it looked great.

Be careful with your DIY repairs.

However, when I put the ceiling fan back on it wobbled quite a bit. It turns out that when I took it off or when I put it back on, I broke a very expensive piece on the fan that made it wobble.

The moral of the story is that I now have to buy a new ceiling fan, so an inexpensive repair turned into a very expensive one. Be careful with your DIY repairs!

In the future, I would love to hear about your DIY successes so I can talk about them on this blog. As always, please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns about real estate in Salt Lake.

I’m excited to talk a bit today about the Salt Lake Board of Realtors Charity Challenge. I’m lucky enough to be part this year, and we’re excited to do a fundraiser to benefit Habitat for Humanity! I’ve learned a lot about it lately and I’m so impressed. The more I learn the more I love them, and it’s become near and dear to my heart very quickly. 

We’ll be doing weekly challenges, and the week of June 6th through June 10th, we’re collecting paint trays and paint tray liners for Habitat. I’m issuing you a challenge - be the best by bringing me the most paint trays and liners. There will be prizes on June 16th for the winners!

Whether you’re a Realtor, a Facebook friend, or a client, I want to issue this challenge to help me beat all the other Realtors out there. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. Before I go, though, I wanted to issue one more quick challenge. On June 16th, we’re also going to have a dunking booth! If you’re seeing this video and can help raise $6,000 by June 16th, I’ll get in the dunking booth!

Let’s see if you can do it! I look forward to hearing from you!
