SIP & PAINT AT OUR WOOD SIGN WORKSHOPS
At Board & Brush in Ahwatukee, 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 Ahwatukee Owner
Justin Watts
Justin and Danielle Watts have always had a flair for the fun and unexpected. Justin grew up in Wyoming and Danielle grew up in Colorado, but both moved to Arizona nearly 20 years ago to get away from the cold! Both of them love the outdoors and activities; from skiing all the way to golfing. While it was chilly outside, Justin and Danielle were always busy with either painting, creating, entertaining or perfecting their sports.
Justin has worked with Bass Pro Shops, has run his own retail shop, and most recently, was the Regional Director of the National Wild Turkey Federation. Danielle has been a District Manager for Forever 21, Dollar General, and is currently the District Manager for The Vitamin Shoppe in three states. As they have grown older, they have realized that travelling for work and missing time with their beautiful family was not something they wanted. Their children are the heart of their life; Austin, Aspen and Aurora. Each member of their family is super creative and artistic in their own way: from art, to music, to drawing.
Justin and Danielle discovered an opportunity with Board & Brush and felt that it was the perfect fit for their artistic, creative household. Each member of the Watts family is so excited to help promote this new adventure and help call it their own. With Danielle and Justin’s successful business track record, passion for the arts and their love of people, they are the perfect partners for Board & Brush!
