I'm a big fan of Amy Sedaris, and one of her decorating mainstays is to put googly eyes on everything.
There is an almost universal experience in physicists, at least of my generation, which is home-made pyrotechnics.
I really love to write about food, crafts, and fashion, so those details will always be a part of my books. I think they inject stories with color and flavor, providing a tactile experience.
I visited Minnie Pearl's home down in Nashville, and I liked it so much I asked the same man to help fix up my place.
I built a lot of hot rods and stuff.
I'm pretty handy! I do a lot of things around the house, and I actually enjoy it.
I've always been a homemaker, like, I like creating spaces. Even if I stay in a hotel, I'll unpack, I'll put my books out, I'll put my camera out, I'll throw a sweater over the lamp to get better light. I am a homemaker.
I like working with my hands, need to do that more often.
I love crafting and cooking, doing all of that.
Ever since I was young I loved making things and being part of the design process.
I go through stages with all kinds of stuff. There'll be a couple of months where I'm reading, you know, like, fiction mystery novels, and there'll be a couple more where I'll be redecorating a room in my house.
I just like building stuff.
Even if I hadn't won 'Drag Race,' even if I'd never been on, I'd still be working my tail off, creating live shows, magazines, videos, anything I possibly could!
My goal with our American Made program is to inspire people of all ages to become 'doers,' whether it's them learning how to make an easy weekday dinner or starting their own business.
I am not someone who has hobbies. I have tried knitting, and I can't figure it out.
I have a thing for tools.
I grew up in a house my parents built together on a mountain in Tennessee. When we moved in, the walls were still going up, we didn't have hot water, and we turned it into an amazing adventure.
I go four- wheeling in my truck. I also like to fish, cook, do stuff around my house. I even studied fencing for awhile.
The country is making a big mistake not teaching kids to cook and raise a garden and build fires.
It was a matter of not living lavishly but enjoying what you had, growing things with your hands, working hard, but not being tied to a nine-to-five job, and generally feeling that there's more to life than money.
My house. It's kind of eccentric. It's two decades worth of accumulated personal projects. Yeah, it is pretty dense in my house.
I consider myself a D.I.Y. home improvement guy. In a prior life, I completely gutted a house - redid the plumbing, wiring, moved sewage pipes, knocked down walls, everything.
After more than a decade as the editor of 'Wired' magazine, Chris Anderson started the company of his dreams - a robotics manufacturing company called 3D Robotics - to produce the autonomous flying vehicles coming out of DIY Drones.
I've been painting and making things since I was little.
