SIP & PAINT AT OUR WOOD SIGN WORKSHOPS
At Board & Brush in Draper, 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 wood sign 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 Draper Owners
Leslie Waite & Heidi Julian
Leslie is a DIY’er and educationist at heart and loves to get her hands dirty with projects around the house. Leslie has her sister, Crista, to thank for introducing her to the Board & Brush Family. Crista owns two studios in Prescott and Flagstaff, Arizona. I guess you could say DIY is in the family genes! After owning Board & Brush Draper for a year, Leslie asked one of her top performing employees to join her in owning the business. Heidi came on board as Leslie’s partner and the duo has developed an amazing friendship and partnership. The ladies are thrilled to be on this adventure together and cannot wait to meet you in studio.
Heidi has worked as a Pharmacy Technician for 18 years. Her dad owned his own pharmacy early on in his career and she basically grew up in a pharmacy. However, her passion has always been anything and everything crafty. Her mother spent her days doing cross stitch, crochet and tole painting. Heidi spends as much of her free time as possible doing DIY projects for her home and as gifts. She and a friend were looking for something fun to do and through word of mouth ended up at the Board & Brush Draper location. A short six weeks later – she was working at the studio, whenever she wasn’t at her other job. When the opportunity arose to join Leslie and become partners at the Draper studio, Heidi jumped at the chance! She was finally ready to make the big career change and do something every day that makes her truly happy. Heidi is married to an amazing husband, Adam, and has two daughters, Trinitie and Baylie, and one son, Michael. They have three dogs in their family and they love them so much! When Heidi is not working or crafting she loves to be spending time with her family, going camping and boating at Bear Lake.
