Jana took to Instagram to post an overhead shot of her drilling holes through wooden panels.
The snap captured the 32-year-old sitting on the steps of her family’s Arkansas home with varying sized wooden boards around her.
She held one of the strips while a drill and a container of nails laid on the floor beside her.
The pic also showed a workbench nearby appearing to be her workstation.
Jana seemed focused on the job as she sported a pair of blue jeans, a brown jacket, and white sneakers, pulling her hair back into a large clip.
She teased the mystery project in the caption, writing: “Turning these wood scraps into something I can use for my next project! #savethedifference“
Fans immediately jumped to the comments section to coax the star into hosting a show of her own.
One person wrote: “Can’t wait to see! You could do a you tube channel for decor, gardening and other projects.”
While a second person favored a potential online series, adding: “The projects you took on for family on your show were awesome. I loved the time you all surprised your parents with a master bedroom remodel. ❤️”
A third fan took the idea a step further by suggesting the show air on a cable network and her hashtag be the title.
“That would be a great name for HGTV show ! Save the difference,” they wrote.
Others showed their encouragement for Jana branching out with her own series as another replied: “We want to see your projects! Great you can use scraps to make something nice 😊”
And another said “I agree with everyone you should have a channel. I would so watch your channel!”
HELPING HAND
The former Counting On star has proven that she knows her way around a toolbox on numerous occasions.
Back in September 2020, the eldest female Duggar sibling posted photos and videos of her helping her brother James renovate his $72,000 home.
Jana could be seen cutting tiles in the bathroom shower while her younger brother assisted.
The 19-year-old opted for white tiles along the walls, which Jana was proud to help install.
She wrote in her post: “Helping James tile a shower today. 🛁 I love it when I can help my brothers with their different projects. It’s always fun times! 🤪 Love hanging out with them!”
The Sun exclusively revealed that James bought the home in April 2020 for $72,988.
Property records show the single-family house is 940 square feet and sits on 2.65 acres of land.
Jana currently resides with her parents Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar and many of her younger siblings that have not yet married.
DESPERATE TO WED
Last January, a source exclusively told The Sun that Jana was desperate to get married as she’s forbidden from moving out of her family’s home until she finds a husband.
The source elaborated saying: “Jana is very independent and more alpha compared to her sisters, but she can’t get a place of her own until she meets someone her family approves of.
“The Duggars are so religious, they wouldn’t agree with her moving out and living alone, or living with a friend or boyfriend, it’s frowned upon, it’s ridiculous but it’s how it’s always been.
“She wants to fly the nest, but it’s hard as she has to find the right guy, which is a goal for all of the girls, and she hates being the last single sister.
“Jana likes doing things on her own and enjoys DIY, she’s not the type who needs looking after in any way, but she’s really ready to move out and live her own life.”
UNDER PRESSURE
They added: “Her dates are usually chaperoned, even though she’s 30 years old she can’t be alone with a man, it’s the way it’s always been in the family, so it makes it harder for her.
“She also can’t just join a dating app like other women her age, it’s just not the done thing for the Duggars and they often meet their spouses through family connections.”
Jana previously shared that she feels “a little more pressure” to find a husband because all of her adult sisters are married and have expanded their families.
Fans have even dubbed her “Cinderella Duggar” as she’s often responsible for helping take care of her younger siblings while living in the home.
