#4 MerryPad
MerryPad follows the DIY journey of Emily Fazio, who is married to Pete Fazio of Dadand.com. Aside from the impressive projects that these two DIY pros put out, perhaps the most inspiring part of MerryPad is its simple and unassuming upbringing. Emily embarked on simple home improvement projects that she documented just to show family. When she realized how far her DIY mindset could get her, she launched MerryPad to help inspire other homeowners to make their “pads” just as merry, special and unique as she and Pete have made their two homes.
