Web design
I would plan on learning PHP and also some SQL. Since you sound like more of a hands-on person, I think you will do well investing about an hour a day.
You may not have to build something from scratch also. I suspect you can find software that does all or most of what you want already, and can make modifications as you learn.
There are a LOT of good learning resources both online and off (books and classes), so it's really just a matter of your ability as a student. Depending on how much skill you want to have, it's hard to tell how much time will be needed, but I think after a month you will have quite a bit of knowledge that will allow you do many things, or quickly figure out how to do things you are clueless about today. :-)
I do have to mention that learning web design and learning programming are generall not the same thing and most people are better at one than the other, so keep that in mind.
