White Wood Workshops...in the GTA

I haven't shared much about a big part of my life...my White Wood Workshops...

since I started this blog in 2007 I have been asked to share or to teach building and DIY, I think it is in my nature to share...share new finds, new skills and my passion for DIY...that is why I started a blog way back when... it was to share my projects with others to inspire others to try diy projects and just for community...I guess not a lot has changed...

After being literally asked for years I had the opportunity to start planning workshops for a local shop, that didn't work out but I did co-found a workshop brand with another local builder but we decided to go our separate ways and do our own thing, it was for the best...we just had different visions for the workshops moving forward...I think I was certainly meant to be doing my own White Wood Workshops as a secondary aspect of my White Wood Studio business...I always wanted to keep an open mind to how white wood would evolve...I just want to create and now creating with others just fills me up in the best way.

 I was searching for a one of a kind project...that is hard to come up with these days with Pinterest and all... it seems like everything has been dreamt up already...but when I look for inspiration I am hoping seeing others projects will inspire something new....I want to create useful beautiful things....
I have had a metal breadbox and I love it but it never held enough bread...so I decided it was a perfect workshop project...and it was.

 Ryobi power tools has supplied White Wood workshops with more tools than I could have dreamt of and it makes the workshop experience a dream...I want to keep the workshops quite small under 10 to give that real hands on experience, I want everyone to have access to all the tools to make the process fun and educational.

Some people wonder why they would want to pay to attend a workshop instead of just doing it on their own, it will obviously cost less....yes that is true....what I provide is the instruction, the tools, the space and the materials...and I take the work out of DIY....I give you everything to make each project a success and you can leave the mess with me...I do the shopping, I do all the prep and all you need to do is show up and and have fun...

So bring your friends, come alone and even bring your spouse...everyone is welcome...

                     Custom farmhouse clocks are the most popular, they are so fun to customize...

How lucky am I to meet great passionate people right here at my home...lucky

I feel so blessed to be able to open my home to new people eager to learn and flex their creative and DIY muscles...

Thank you Ryobi Canada for helping us bring DIY to the masses...

This is a sponsored post, Ryobi provided me with the tools but I have been a fan for years and years..Ryobi is and will remain my go to brand for cordless power tools
