SIP & PAINT AT OUR WOOD SIGN WORKSHOPS
At Board & Brush in Tipp City, 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 Tipp City Owners
Ernie Carmack & Colleen Gilardi
Ernestine has a background in PR and managed a rental car company until she decided to stay home and take care of her family. Board & Brush Creative Studio was a great opportunity for her to get back into the work place! She is surrounded by all boys in her family and they all have a love for Crossfit!
Colleen started her career in advertising and led the change from print newspapers to an online news format. She and her husband Marc have three boys and keep very active with football, golf, basketball, tennis and even rubix cubing! They also own a machine shop in Sidney, OH where she still does some of the financial/marketing/HR aspects of the business.
Board & Brush was the perfect fit for Colleen and Ernestine when they both expressed interest in the up and coming Board & Brush franchise! This was the opportunity they were both looking for to spend time with their family, yet get back into the workforce!
