She believed she could, and so she did....
If you're ready to get handy, this half day workshop is a great introduction to the most common D-I-Y tools
Why
Doing-It-Yourself is hugely empowering! Not to mention faster and cheaper, especially for the small home maintenance jobs. But having the confidence to give it a go starts with knowing which tool you need, and how to use it properly and safely.
That's what this workshop is about!
Who
Especially catering to women who want to be handy at home, Intro to Tools is best suited to novices and beginners. Come along for a hands-on learning experience with a selection of key hand tools and power tools which will give you the skills and know-how when you need to D-I-Y at home.
