About the Author

Kate Albrecht AKA Mr. Kate


Her love of self-expression and her desire to live an anything-but-normal life outside of the box inspired Mr. Kate to create her own unique DIY life. Her projects involve style, home design, and beauty—including DIY nail art and makeup techniques, up-cycled projects to revive tired items in your wardrobe, and stunning home-decor touches to beautify your living space. You don’t have to be a seamstress, a metalsmith, or an expert at anything to enjoy these projects, all of which are doable in under two hours and require just a few easy-tofind supplies. Now you, too, can become a DIY diva!

KATE ALBRECHT is the pint-size, curly haired creative visionary behind the quirky and inspirational lifestyle brand Mr. Kate. In 2009, Albrecht founded the company with the goal of inspiring others to discover their own unique sense of style and has since grown the brand to a global audience of millions of dedicated viewers and consumers.

Lifestyle guru Kate Albrecht is pretty much the antithesis of Martha Stewart. . . . [she] probably has more in common with the late Nora Ephron than with any maven of domesticity.

What's better than a book of DIYs? One that pairs each project with a hilarious story that will have you laughing out loud from behind your glue gun.

We can’t always have our ladies around us when we are crafting to swap stories and share a glass of pinot with, but Mr. Kate more than makes up for that.
