DIY for Females: Painting & Drywall


Adult Enrichment / Home & Garden -
Adult W-SP 24

Anything But Ordinary would like to present it’s entry level BYBS (Bring Your Bad Self) class. Are you a single female? Divorced? Widowed? New to home ownership? Or just a lady who doesn’t mind getting a little dirty to tackle her own honey-do list? Let’s face it, hiring a professional can get expensive and not everyone has it in their budget to pay, to have someone else come and paint the inside and outside of their homes. This course would be a perfect place to start. We will dive into the ins and outs of your basic, and not so basic, drywall repairs and painting. I will demonstrate how to make repairs to various sized holes and cracks that are in your walls and guide you through a step-by-step process of properly prepping and painting your home from start to finish to get you that professional look. We will discuss various types of paints and what they are used for and also discuss how to pick the best color for your spaces. Please wear clothing that you can get dirty and full of paint. Closed toe shoes preferred.

My name is Jamie! I come from a long line of tradesmen and have owned and operated my own home improvement business, called Anything But Ordinary, for the past 12 years. I have a degree in carpentry and multiple certificates in faux finishes, concrete floor coatings and home inspections. I have experience and knowledge in all areas of the home and am all about empowering women to be comfortable taking on any home improvement project at the DIY (do-it-yourself) level. Eventually, I would love to offer classes on light electrical and light plumbing and general maintenance of a home. When I am not running my home improvement business, I am tending grapevines on my vineyard, traveling this big beautiful world and volunteering with a local animal rescue, working on their education committee to teach youth how to properly care for animals, as well as helping with their local and Texas transports. I am also a board member for a non-profit organization that helps local veterans with their honey-do lists. I love being able to provide multiple communities with a positive presence and am looking forward to working with more Maple Grove and Osseo community members on strengthening their abilities to become empowered and confident in their homes.
