In the era of mass production and consumerism, we often take for granted the objects we use every day. We may not think twice about where our toothbrush came from or how our coffee maker works. But what if you could make these everyday items yourself? What if you could customize them to your own needs and preferences?

Make the Things You Use Every Day is a book that shows you how to create beautiful, practical, and sustainable objects for your home and life. From simple projects like making a cutting board to more complex projects like building a rocking chair, this book has something for everyone.
