About this Event
What’s This All About:
This May, we’re building something practical, personal, and perfect for gifting: a reclaimed wood toolbox that’s as beautiful as it is useful. Whether you’re making it for your mom, with your mom, or as a mom, this hands-on workshop is all about celebrating care, craft, and functionality.
You’ll learn to measure, cut, and assemble using salvaged materials from the RBX yard — with guidance from Beech Tree Studio’s expert teaching. The final piece is sturdy enough for gardening tools, craft supplies, or kitchen gadgets, and charming enough to live on a shelf when not in use.
Come solo, bring a friend, or team up with someone you love. No experience needed — just a willingness to try something new and leave with a handmade gift (or a well-earned treat for yourself).
What You’ll Learn
- Basic woodworking and upcycling techniques
- Safe use of shared tools and materials
- How to plan, measure, cut, and assemble your own shelf
- Finishing tips to make your piece gift-ready or display-worthy
What You’ll Leave With
- A functional, handmade toolbox
- Confidence in using tools and working with reclaimed materials
- New skills and new friends
- The option to personalize your piece to fit your space or style
Cost
$95 per person – includes all tools, materials, and instruction
No prior experience needed — just bring your curiosity and creativity.
Who This Is For
- Total beginners and weekend warriors alike
- Makers who love sustainable, reclaimed materials
- Anyone looking for a unique Sunday experience
- People who want to create, not just consume

Meet Your Hosts
Beech Tree Studio is all about hands-on creativity, community connection, and empowering people to make beautiful, functional things — no matter their experience level. With a warm teaching style and a love for reclaimed materials, Beech Tree turns every build into a celebration of craft and collaboration.
Rebuilders Xchange (RBX) is Cleveland’s go-to spot for salvaged and surplus building materials. Their warehouse is packed with character-rich wood, hardware, and fixtures just waiting for a second life. Together with Beech Tree Studio, RBX is helping turn “waste” into wonder — one project at a time.
