Welcome to the Kenmore
DIY Wood Sign 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 at Board & Brush Creative Studio in Kenmore.
Kenmore is a quaint village which is a suburb of Buffalo. Recently it was named one of the top 10 great neighborhoods in the United States to raise a family. It's known for being the city of great neighbors and a sense of community. Buffalo is the home of the famous Buffalo Wings as well as Beef on Weck and Weber's mustard. We also have great pizza and a great Friday night fish fry and don't forget our infamous snow storms. We have the fantastic Buffalo Zoo, which is right near the famous Frank Lloyd Wright Darwin Martin House. Local favorite restaurants include Anderson's, Ted's Hot Dogs & The Anchor Bar.
Board & Brush Kenmore is a licensed establishment.
Beer and wine are available for purchase in the studio.
Please note, BYOB is not permitted.

SIP & PAINT AT OUR WOOD SIGN WORKSHOPS
At Board & Brush in Kenmore, 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 Kenmore Owners
Denise & Mike Katus
Denise and Mike have been working in corporate America doing the 9-5 for 30+ years. While the security has been a great way to raise a family and pay the bills, Denise always felt that there was something more out there for her. For Mother's Day their two daughters Samantha and Sabrina booked a workshop for the three of them in Penfield, NY. Denise immediately fell in love and knew that this is what was missing. She couldn't wait to go home and share her enthusiasm with her husband Mike. Mike encouraged her to look into opening a franchise and the rest is history. Since then, they've all attended several workshops in different areas and continue to be amazed at how much they love Board & Brush and know that this truly is their future.
Denise & Mike met in 1986 while attending Buffalo State College; they also both worked at the same retail store while attending college. They married in 1990 and have two daughters as mentioned above. Samantha attends The University at Buffalo for her Master's Degree in Pathology & Sabrina attends The University of Fredonia for Childhood Education. Both girls are very crafty and cannot wait to be a part of this new adventure that the family is embarking on. They also have a one year old Havanese named Selena. Denise's first project at Board & Brush was "A House Is Not A Home Without A Havanese."
