Board & Brush
Welcome to the Macon
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 Macon.
Macon, GA is a 200-year-old city about an hour south of Atlanta. The majority of the city’s population is employed by either insurance companies, hospitals, something industrial or engineering-related, or the Air Force base located in nearby Warner Robins. True southern charm emanates from the residents as much as it does the historical landmarks like the Ocmulgee National Monument, Rose Hill Cemetery, Mercer University, and The Georgia Sports Hall of Fame. Many famous people have roots in Macon: Little Richard, Otis Redding, the Allman Brothers, astronaut Sonny Carter, Nancy Grace, Jason Aldean, Sidney Lanier, and countless others. Macon has really blossomed over the last few decades with the help of initiatives to revitalize older areas, as well as to attract new residents and businesses by keeping up with new construction, such as the brand new Macon Amphitheater.
Board & Brush Macon is a BYOB establishment.
Please note, BYOB allowed for wine and beer only.

SIP & PAINT AT OUR WOOD SIGN WORKSHOPS
At Board & Brush in Macon, 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 Macon Owners
Tonya & Dustin Allen
Tonya first attended a Board & Brush workshop when she and her husband, Dusty, were living in Savannah, Georgia. She immediately fell in love with the fun atmosphere and returned many times with family and friends in tow. Once they moved back to Macon, she felt the area needed this type of creative experience, and she knew opening up a studio of her own was the right choice. She looks forward to working alongside others to help them bring out their inner DIY side.
Tonya and Dusty were both raised in Georgia and met in Macon while home on college break. Dusty graduated from The Georgia Institute of Technology with a degree in chemical engineering and Tonya graduated from The University of Georgia with a degree in art, so they complement each other well. Dusty has been in the mining industry for 30+ years and now works as a project manager for an engineering firm. Tonya has mostly been a work-at-home mom with business ventures in baking and sewing. They enjoy traveling, spending time with friends and family, and of course, watching football. In fact, they attended the GT vs UGA football game together for 27 years straight! They have 3 children and will soon be empty nesters.
