DIY projects are very popular in Britain and there are lots of TV programmes which show people how they can improve their homes.
Some people like simple (简单的) decorating. They often put up wall-paper and paint walls, but there are a lot of different DIY projects that people decide to take on, from changing the new floor to setting a new shower.
Unluckily, people bite off more than they can chew (不自量力), and try to take on jobs which end in DIY disasters (灾难). For example, the shops often tell their customers that anything electrical (电的) should be done by an electrician. However, many people don’t care about this warning and put themselves in danger.
