Home Maintenance Made Easy

A Practical Workshop for Confident DIY Wall Hanging


Know Your Screws, Anchors & Wall Types

Not sure which screw or wall anchor to use? You’re not alone! If a trip to Bunnings leaves you more confused than confident, this workshop is for you.

In this hands-on session, you’ll learn how to safely and securely hang pictures, shelves, blinds, and curtains—on both brick and plasterboard walls. We’ll take the guesswork out of home maintenance so you can DIY with confidence.


Workshop Schedule
  • Date: Tuesday
  • Time: 5:30 PM – 6:30 PM (AEDT)

This one-hour session is packed with tips, demonstrations, and time to get hands-on with tools and materials.


What You’ll Learn
  • How to identify different wall types (brick, concrete, plasterboard)
  • Which wall anchors and screws to use—and when
  • How to drill safely and accurately
  • Tips for mounting pictures, shelves, blinds, and curtain rods
  • Tricks for getting a clean, level finish


What’s Included

All tools and materials are provided. Just bring your curiosity and a readiness to learn!

Perfect for renters, first-time DIYers, or anyone tired of second-guessing wall hardware.
