"The only really good place to buy lumber is at a store where the lumber has already been cut and attached together in the form of furniture, finished and put inside boxes." ~Dave Barry
Many of us are more than welcoming to the idea of taking on projects around the home and we tend to showcase many of those efforts here on Apartment Therapy. But to many, the idea of making or assembling things on your own.....
is one that makes them feel faint and weak in the knees. Often times we forget about those who would rather someone else take care of the details for them.
Usually we wish we were those people half way through any given project when we are making our 3rd trip to Home Depot in 48 hours.
So to the non-diy-er, this post is for you.

I actually just recently made a cat tree for my kitten Sadie. I don't usually make stuff so I was nervous it wouldn't be structuraly sound but it actually turned out just fine!
Here are a few images:

It only took me a weekend and it was actually pretty fun.
