Are you ready to get handy?
Let’s Do It Together!
Come for a day. Learn skills for a lifetime.
Stop waiting around for someone else to fix the problems in your house! The How To Handyma'am Weekend Intensive is a hands-on, immersive workshop designed specifically for women who want to conquer tool anxiety, gain ultimate home competency, and build a community of badass friends.
💡 Did you know? The average cost for a plumber to swap out a toilet is $400+ in labor alone. The average cost of a drywall repair is $250 - $400. By learning to handle basic repairs yourself, this intensive literally pays for itself on day one.
🔨 The 3 Core Learning Stations
You will spend the day inside our warehouse venue rotating through three deep-dive, hands-on stations led by supportive pros:
Tool Competency: Demystify the toolbox, master power saws, and learn to use heavy-duty tools safely and confidently. Learn how to choose the right tool for each project.
Plumbing Basics: Stop leaks, replace bathroom/kitchen fixtures, and handle emergencies without panic. Know exactly when you need to call a plumber.
Drywall Repair: Learn to patch, sand, and smooth out walls like a professional. Learn tips and tricks for beautiful finishes.
