Me & my DH have been buying this magazine for the past few months. It is a great magazine. So much to look at and learn. So many DIY things. Directions on how to do things. It has it all.....really. Check out the website. We are hooked. Great reference for those DIYers or those who are just starting out. Enjoy!

I loved that magazine.

no your thinking of this old house magazine i think. this one doesn't have old in its title at all

Re: Check out this great magazine - The Family Handyman

Thanks for this! i just subscribed to the mag.

there is a DIY chair rail project that i want DH to do in the new home. It's a couple of pieces of molding, but i don't have a lot of space to do, so i think we could do it...

Re: Check out this great magazine - The Family Handyman

I looked at my old magazine. I think it's the same.

I LOVED this magazine. I am going to subscribe to it again.

Thanks for posting! I thought the magazine was no longer in circulation.

Re: Check out this great magazine - The Family Handyman

Thanks, I just subscribed too! I get frustrating calling someone for every little thing...definitely need to start learning to do stuff on my own.

I need to start buying the magazine holders to organize my decor mags and these new mags for DIY stuff. I need to go to Home Goods or IKEA and pick up some of those.

Another mag that is pretty good is Better Homes and Gardens-do it Yourself. YoungHouseLove.com now has a column in that mag. Link

ETA: I think I'm going to get DH a subscription for Christmas. Great idea.

My DH keeps asking me when I'm getting rid of them. I just look at him and he walks away. I would like to start a binder with the article or pics I like, but I don't know that I will ever get to that.

I have to get me some pretty ones like these.
