This week on FYI Philly, it's a DIY'ers delight from furniture and candle-making to spring planting.
We'll even show you how you can make your own hat!
And with our fancy fascinator, we're heading to this year's Point to Point at Winterthur.
Plus, we've got yoga that will literally take your practice off the ground and another class designed to heal what ails your body.
