**Consider the Purpose**: First off, think about what you’re making. If it’s something that needs to be super sturdy, like a table, go for hardwoods like oak or maple. But if it’s just a decorative piece, softer woods like pine will do just fine and are usually cheaper!

**Check the Grain and Color**: I like to pick wood based on how it looks. Some projects need a specific vibe, so check out the grain and color of different woods. You might find a beautiful piece of walnut or cherry that adds a nice touch to your project!

**Think About the Environment**: If you care about sustainability, look for reclaimed wood or certified sustainable options. Not only does it help the planet, but it also gives your project a unique character. Plus, it’s a cool story to tell!
