DIY shopping list

Keep the materials list with the project it belongs to.

Handicraft keeps quantities, supplier links and spending alongside the steps you are working through.

Know what you need before you head to the shop.

Keep the useful details: Add a material, its quantity, estimated cost and a supplier link. You can find it with the rest of the project when you need it.
See what is still needed: Mark materials as you buy them and filter the shopping list to focus on the remaining purchases.
Compare estimated and actual cost: Record the actual row cost after buying so the project total shows what you spent.
Connect purchases to the work: Keep steps and materials in the same project so you can check what is needed before the next working session.

Add each material, the quantity you expect to need, a supplier link and an estimated price. Use the total to get a clearer view of the project cost.

Filter the list to the items you have not bought and tick them off as they go into the basket.

Record the actual cost so you can see what the materials really added up to and keep that information with the finished project.

A tin of paint for a cabinet does not get mixed up with timber for the shelves you want to build next month.

Save a link with the item instead of searching through browser tabs, messages or notes when it is time to order.

Adjust quantities and prices as you make decisions, find alternatives or discover that the job needs something extra.

When a project pauses, the list still shows what you have already bought and what the next working session needs.

Use the planner to check the piece, list cleaning and finishing supplies, budget for new hardware and break the work into stages before you start.
