When we started this venture back in 2018, Hammer & Stain North Aurora’s goal was to meet people from our community and offer a fun, laid-back activity that everyone could enjoy. Now, two years later, Hammer & Stain North Aurora has helped DIYers hone their creativity as they take unfinished wood and create beautiful pieces to decorate their homes!

Our Hammer@Home Kits, projects you complete at home with all the materials you need, are perfect for you and your home, whatever your style, taste, or needs. From single planks that you can decorate with fun sayings or your family’s name, to serving trays and planter’s boxes, to cornhole boards you can enjoy in the summer, there are plenty of projects for you to customize to fit your vision!

No matter your craft experience level, our team is here to walk you through each step of the process. When you pick up your Hammer@Home Kits, be ready to dive right into your project! Throw on an apron, snap on some gloves, and have your sponges and brushes ready to stain and paint unfinished wood planks, boxes, and more with your choice of colors.

Enjoy the company of fellow DIYers as you paint, all while sipping a glass of wine or a beer, with our private off-site workshops. From kids’ parties and laid-back getaways for the family, to couples and date nights, to company team-building and fundraising events, we have had plenty of fun afternoons and evenings. We offer a number of options for parties and get togethers, including private parties, fundraising and team-building events, bachelorette parties, off-site workshops, retirement parties, and more! No matter the occasion, Hammer & Stain North Aurora can help you put together an off-site workshop with your favorite people.

While we specialize in taking unfinished wood and turning it into beautiful artwork for your home, we offer a number of other projects that are fun and add a touch of personalization and beauty to your living space. These projects include pillows, large knitted blankets, and doormats, simple decor that add your own personal touch to a home.
