    Welcome to Our Family Maison, a blog focused on DIY, Home Decor/Design and Family. I fully believe that the Home can be a spiritual safe-haven, a place that can be creatively filled with love and beautiful memories that a family will cherish as long as they live. I hope that this blog can somewhat inspire you to build that same feeling within your own home. When I started this blog, it was in the middle of Covid-19 where governments had required a stay at home order.

*Rule of thumb* Do NOT use MDF in areas that will *Rule of thumb* Do NOT use MDF in areas that will get wet (like bathrooms) as it can warp easily. So this video is a great example for bedrooms, living rooms, etc. 

I wrote a whole blog post about why pre-primed MDF is overall cheaper and less time consuming. You can certainly buy regular MDF boards or even common boards, but then you’d need to make sure that the boards are sanded (if it’s a common board or plywood, etc) and then primed. 

Why primer?? Wood is porous which means it will literally absorb the paint which means it’s easier to crack, chip or not apply evenly. By priming you are sealing the wood which allows better adhesion for the paint and improved durability.
