A fun, functional project to try this summer is making a DIY wooden tool carrier. This project can be customized to your needs—make it as big or as small as you want to fit specific tools. Additionally, you can paint or stain this tool carrier however you’d like. These tool carriers can also make a great gift for the longtime homeowner, someone moving out on their own for the first time, or for new homeowners. It’s also a great project to work on with your children or grandchildren!
