It’s usually got tabs that annotate the kitchen, the bathroom, the flooring, and the paint colors. Making sure that everybody has access to the resource is powerful and our trades seem to really appreciate that.” Trades working with Wood Be Art also enjoy special perks during projects and when they’re completed. Brandy brings coffee to the worksite and gives gift cards or a bottle of wine to the workers at the conclusion of a job. She says it’s a way of saying, “Thank you for all the work that you do and see you on the next project.” Brandy also hosts the podcast ‘All Things Renovation,’ which is designed to help listeners take a confident role in their next home renovation project. She says she started the podcast a number of years ago “to educate clients and the general population about renovation so they don’t end up having a bad experience.” Topics discussed on ‘All things Renovation’ include how to hire a contractor, the ins and outs of kitchen and bathroom design, and the value and importance of women in trades.
