DIY LIKE A GIRL

Fall Home-Prep Workshop

A hands-on evening designed by women, for women — empowering you to take charge of your home with tools, knowledge, and real-life know-how.

Next Upcoming Session: Wednesday, October 15, 2025 in Belleville

Learn how to stop drafts with weatherstripping, change a furnace filter the right way, and apply caulking like a pro — plus take home your own tube of caulking to get started.

Meet Your Host

TAMMY WATSON

Founder of Canadian Handywoman

I help busy women feel capable and in control when it comes to their homes. Whether you want to finally feel comfortable using a power drill, tackle basic home maintenance, put together furniture without the frustration, or understand the ins and outs of your new cottage — I make it simple, clear, and doable.

I bring both know-how and encouragement, so you leave feeling calm, confident, and ready to take on the next task.

After building a trusted reputation in North Frontenac, I’ve recently relocated to Quinte West to be closer to family — and I’m excited to continue supporting women here who want their homes (and their minds) to feel a little lighter and less overwhelming.
