SIP & PAINT AT OUR WOOD SIGN WORKSHOPS
At Board & Brush in Hanford, 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 Hanford Owners
Allyson & Philip Sippel
Allyson and Philip were born and raised in the Hanford/Lemoore area. Allyson is a teacher at a local elementary school, and Philip has had a life-long dream of owning his own business! With backgrounds in education, and a knack for design, the couple feel right at home in the Board & Brush studio. It is the perfect blend of their love for their community with their love of DIY!
They have 3 children: Callie, Parker, and Piper, plus an adopted Great Dane, Clementine, that keeps them on their toes. They love spending time at the lake and the beach, jet-skiing and surfing with the kids. When they aren’t in the studio doing workshops, you can find them enjoying time with the family or restoring Blue Betty, their classic 1973 Jimmy project. They are thrilled to share their passion and entrepreneurial spirit with their children, who love helping out in the studio!
