25 DIY Project Ideas

Note: Before using Flex Seal products, read all directions and take proper safety precautions, such as being in a well-ventilated area and wearing protective gear while applying.

1. Seamless Indoor Furniture Repair

Broken furniture can be an opportunity to teach kids about home care and repair. Use Flex Glue to seamlessly bond cracks or loosened joints in chairs or tables.

Flex Super Wide Duct Tape works well for quick fixes on vinyl or tears. And if you’re looking for crystal-clear, virtually invisible repairs, try Flex Paste Clear or Flex Tape Clear.

2. Seal Window Gaps for Insulation

Sealing drafty windows is an important home maintenance task that can potentially lower energy costs. Remove old caulk and replace it with Flex Caulk, making sure to fill gaps so areas are properly sealed. This project not only keeps your home’s temperature more comfortable but can also be a great lesson in energy conservation.
