Our goal is to make your experience memorable and enjoyable. Our workshops are ever-changing and we strive to bring you fresh new projects regularly.

We offer digital & PHYSICAL GIFT CARDS so you can give the gift of creating.

Be sure to CHECK OUT OUR CALENDAR of events with all upcoming workshops and private event availability!

Hammer & Stain Workshops

Attend a public workshop, book a private party, or just spend time crafting during the day with one of our Hammer @ Home kits.

We walk you through the process step-by-step, sharing our tips and painting techniques to add texture and visual interest to your one-of-a-kind handmade project.

We offer all types of projects from wall signs, yard games, customized picture pallets, porch decor, knit blankets, and functional decor.

We want you to create something you would proudly display or give as a gift.  If the public setting isn’t for you, we can create a Hammer @ Home kit for you to craft at your convenience.

Everyone can enjoy the experience at Hammer & Stain Eastern Shore from experienced maker to first timer, and any and all age groups are welcome. We offer custom pieces as well as pre-made projects upon request.

If you don’t see a project you like, just send us a message at hammerandstaineasternshore@gmail.com let us help you bring your vision to life!

Such a great night!! Laura was amazing from welcoming us to explaining to process. It was so neat how the choices for design, stain and paint colors made it fit each persons style! They all looked so great! It is for those of all skill levels, both those crafty and not so crafty. I highly recommend this and will definitely be back! Thank you for so much fun!

Amanda E. Southern Pines, NC

Great place for a girls night! :) Or even a couples night. Three ladies brought their husbands and did their projects together as well! Fun time had by all.  Everyone's project turned out wonderful. Very fair price too considering the space, materials, color options, and professional experience to make sure my project turned out just right!

What To Expect

Never been to a wood and paint studio? No worries, you are not alone!  Here is what to expect when you arrive:

Both your wood and your personalized stencil will be placed on a work table at a reserved spot. If you requested to be seated next to a friend, you should find their design in the spot next to you.  In order to protect your clothing, you will want to put on the apron provided. If you also wish to place your purse/handbag away from the work table, there is a designated area where you can safely place your things. 

Once everyone has settled in, we will begin class. A typical class will last for 2-2.5 hours. Larger pieces and furniture projects may last up to 3.5 hours.

The instructor will guide you through the process, from start to finish. We will also help you with the selection of stain and paint color options. If you get lost, written instructions are provided at the center of each table as well as on the wall. We will be hands-on throughout the entire workshop, but if at any time you have questions or need help, please let us know! We are there to HELP YOU!! 

OUR CALENDAR

As the workshop progresses, know that not everyone will be moving at the same pace. This is normal – don’t compare yourself to anyone else. This is YOUR project and YOUR experience! HAVE FUN, ENJOY YOURSELF, and BE PROUD of your creation! Again, we are there to help. So, if you have questions or need a hand with your project, let us know!

When you have finished your project, you are free to go! BUT before you go, and if you are up for it, we’d love to get a picture of you with your project for our gallery!

Last, but certainly, not least … we are so grateful to you for spending time with us at our workshop, and we hope to see you again very soon!
