Studio DIY
Without Touching Your Live Site
A staging-based refresh service where you get the setup, the theme, and the safety net to redesign your site yourself… then I handle the technical launch when you’re ready.
The Challenge You're Facing
You want to refresh your website, but you’re nervous about breaking your live site. Maybe you’ve tried updating things yourself before and ended up with error messages, broken layouts, or visitors seeing your half-finished work.
You know what you want your site to look like. You’re comfortable working in WordPress. You just need the technical setup so you can redesign safely… and someone to handle the scary technical parts when it’s time to go live.
The Solution You've Been Looking For
Studio DIY gives you a safe sandbox to work in. I set up your staging site, install your theme, back up your live site, and give you 30 days to customize to your heart’s content. When you’re ready to launch, I handle the technical migration so nothing breaks.
Think of it like this: I give you a practice space where you can experiment, make mistakes, and refine your design without anyone seeing it. Your live site stays exactly as it is until you’re 100% ready. Then I handle the switch.

And You Get…
You get the freedom to DIY with the security of professional support.
The Process
Setup
I set up your staging site, install your chosen theme, and back up your live site. Once everything’s ready, I’ll send you login credentials and a brief walkthrough of what’s been set up.
Customization
You have 30 days to customize your staging site however you want. Take your time. Experiment. Make changes. Your live site is untouched during this period, so there’s no pressure. If you finish early, great. If you need the full 30 days, that’s fine too.
Launch
When you’re ready to go live, let me know. I’ll schedule your launch, push your staging site live, and run a full check to make sure everything works. You’ll have a fresh, updated website without ever having to worry about the technical details.
The Investment
or two payments of $275
This includes your full staging setup, theme installation, backup, 30-day customization period, and done-for-you launch.
This is the most budget-friendly way to refresh your site if you’re comfortable doing the design work yourself. You’re not paying for my design time… you’re paying for the technical setup and peace of mind that your launch will go smoothly.
