I attended the The Home Depot Do It Herself workshop for bathroom updates on Thursday night and was surprised at the turnout for the presentation. There were about twenty people there, including some husbands who tagged along with their wives to view the seminar. The presentation was given in three portions to cover faucet installation, tile installation, and repairing a toilet. As always, the presentations were presented well, and provided detailed information about the repairs, what tools would be required, and how to do it.
I’m not sure that all of the workshops are conducted in the same manner, but the workshop I attended also had snacks, drinks, and door prizes. Every person that attended received a door prize, including the husbands. I was a little shocked when the last two door prizes they gave out were a vanity a a new toilet. I walked away with a new caulk gun, tile spacers, and a sponge for grout and tile clean-up.
Not only does The Home Depot offer women’s workshops several times throughout the year, but they also offer other do-it-yourself classes on Saturday’s and Sunday’s. Check your local Home Depot for classes that will be offered near you. Stay tuned for more workshops being offered at The Home Depot and when warmer weather arrives they also offer workshops for gardening and lawn care.
