Empowering Creators

One Weekend at a Time

What Drives Us

Turn Ideas into Practical Home Projects

Our Mission

The purpose of HomeThingMake is to encourage creativity and to educate about making home things.

We concentrate on fun, feasible and fulfilling projects that allow anyone to make functional and beautiful things for their home without ongoing obligation.

We think making things is the best way to learn and to improve your home at the same time.

What Sets Us Apart from the Rest

At HomeThingMake, we don’t just teach you how to follow a pattern. We teach you how to create. Every single class we offer is not only practical, but also creative. Not only will you walk away with a new skill, but you’ll walk away with something beautiful that you can use to decorate your home.

Practical

The skills you learn can be applied to countless other ideas, from basic crafts to more complicated DIY items.

Functional

Every single class we offer results in a functional final product that you can use to better your home and your life.

Creative

We encourage you to think outside of the box and come up with unique ideas to personalize every single one of your finished products.

How we teach

Every project is broken into smaller tasks. We provide explicit guidance when you need it and room for customization when you want it.

Our classes are designed to help you develop the skills you need to go from complete beginner to a capable weekend DIYer.

We focus on problem solving, material mastery and streamlined project execution so you can derive the maximum enjoyment from your limited time.
