DIY Wood Sign & Wood Project Workshop!
Are you looking for a night out with friends? Is your inner DIY itching for a fun new project without having to buy all your own supplies and make a mess at your house? Then BOOK A WORKSHOP for the ultimate paint and sip experience at Board & Brush Creative Studio in Crown Point.
Crown Point is a beautiful small town tucked away in the Northwest corner of Indiana. It is considered to be more of a suburb of Chicago. This unique location allows residents to enjoy small town apple pie America with one of our nation’s most exciting cities just miles away. We have one of the most beautiful Courthouses in the country surrounded by a collection of unique shops and restaurants. We are also known for letting one of America’s most wanted criminals, John Dillinger, escape from our jail by using a gun carved out of soap. If you’ve never been here, you need to visit soon.
Board & Brush Crown Point is a licensed establishment.
Beer and wine are available for purchase in the studio.

SIP & PAINT AT OUR WOOD SIGN WORKSHOPS
At Board & Brush in Crown Point, we marry the joy of wine and paint with the classic timelessness of wooden signs. Our instructor-led DIY wood sign workshops allow you to combine your creativity and willingness to learn new skills. We provide you with the instruction, materials and design for you to distress, sand, stain, paint, and customize your personalized piece of art!
HOW IT WORKS
1. REGISTER FOR A WORKSHOP
View our calendar above to find a date and time that works best for you and your friends and family (the more, the merrier!). You can also look for a workshop that features the type of project you’d like to create, like a PYP or specialty project. Then, you’ll browse our gallery of hundreds of designs to choose which one you’d like to create in your upcoming workshop!
2. ARRIVE EARLY!
Our workshops start on time, so you’ll want to arrive early to get settled! You can start thinking about the endless creative possibilities ahead, take photos with friends, and enjoy your favorite beverage (some studios are BYOB, while others sell alcohol, please check with your local studio about their policies).
3. GET YOUR DIY ON!
At your paint and sip workshop, you’ll turn raw wood into a finished project fit for your home! You’ll be guided by our expert instructors throughout each step in the workshop - sanding, distressing, staining, painting your stencil, and waxing! You choose all your colors in person at the workshop! Our workshops are typically about 3 hours long.
4. DISPLAY YOUR NEW DÉCOR
When you leave our workshops, you’ll leave with a wood project that you’ll be proud to display in your home! We mean it when we say that no experience is necessary - our instructors are there to help turn you into a DIY expert. Now that your beautiful farmhouse-inspired project is complete, you’ll take it home to find the perfect spot to display it!

Meet Board & Brush Crown Point Owners
Alyssa & Zach Breuckman
Alyssa and Zach haven't always thought of themselves as the DIY creative craftsman types. Alyssa graduated with an associate’s degree in Dental Assisting from Indiana University Northwest and works as a dental assistant. Zach graduated from Wabash College with a bachelor’s degree in History and Psychology, and he still currently works in his family’s automotive repair business.
As a couple, Alyssa and Zach established a newfound knack for expressing their creative energies a few years back when Zach surprised Alyssa with a new Cricut machine. Since then, the two have relished in the endless stream of creative projects that they have been able to create for others. They genuinely enjoy crafting custom pieces of art that bring smiles to the faces of those that request them. When approached by past owners, Annie and Artie Equihua, Alyssa was tickled pink to find that they saw her as a perfect successor to their studios. Both Zach and Alyssa are young and have a lot of passionate energy that they cannot wait to bring to both Board & Brush Crown Point and Board & Brush Valparaiso!
Zach and Alyssa graduated from the same high school a few years apart, yet never knew one another. It wasn't until a few years later that Alyssa's oldest sister and her husband introduced the two, and the rest is history. They have two adorable little boys, Hugo and Otto. Their little family would not be complete without their fur baby Oakley. The couple thoroughly enjoys hanging out with family and friends, playing outside with their boys and dog, and indulging in creative DIY projects whenever possible!
