My worst DIY job was in my early days, over 30 years ago, but I still think back on it with embarrassment and wonder how it worked out.
I was doing up my semi before selling it, and enlarged the kitchen by demolishing the larder. This had its own tiny window (with clear glass) at high level which now looked silly, so I painted around it nicely, fitted a net curtain, put a vase of artificial flowers on the ledge...and boarded it over with plasterboard from the inside, which was made good and painted to match the kitchen.
I often wonder how long it took the new owner to compare the number of windows outside and inside....javascript:emoticon('')
