When the Covid-19 pandemic hit the country in March last year, many people were forced to stay and work from home, thanks to countrywide lockdowns and curfews, which were enforced to minimise the spread of the virus. As days turned into weeks and months, Kenyans began engaging in various activities to pass time and kill boredom.
Top on the list of pastime activities was home improvement. Suddenly, everyone wanted to repaint their walls and re-upholster their wornout couches.
