'RAISING makers THE MAKER'S BLUEPRINT' and a subtitle reading 'The step by step guide for Handmade & DIY Paint Party Businesses- from a studio owner who has been where you are.' on a pale background.

You started because you're a maker. Because there's nothing like a room full of people laughing, creating, walking out holding something they made with their own hands. That feeling is why you opened the doors.

But nobody warned you about the rest of it. The paint jars multiplying on every surface. The sticky notes with prices you're honestly just guessing at. The Sunday nights spent wondering if you charged enough, ordered enough, planned enough. The quiet worry underneath it all: am I actually doing this

'm a maker, just like you. I've hosted the parties, chased the last-minute supply runs, second-guessed my prices, and stayed up way too late wondering if I was building something real. I was — and so are you.

Here's what makes this different from most business courses: I'm not teaching you from the sidelines. Eleven years in, I'm still running my studio at Paisley Grace Makery. Doors open, parties booked, hands covered in paint.

So everything inside The Maker's Blueprint isn't dusty theory from someone

The Maker's Blueprint gives you the foundation. But a foundation is meant to be built on — and you were never meant to build alone.

When you finish the course, a door opens: you're invited into the Raising Makers family, our community of paint party and workshop leaders who've walked the same path you're on. Think of Blueprint as learning to draw the plans, and Raising Makers as the crew that shows up to help you keep building, week after week.

Join Maker's Blueprint and learn to run DIY Paint Parties from Heather Bennett, a leader in the industry for over 10 years. Lifetime access to the recordings and ability to rejoin in each session of live zooms.

Frequently asked questions

The Maker’s Blueprint is a self-paced, 6-module course that walks you through how to build, organize, and grow your DIY workshop business—whether you’re mobile, brick-and-mortar, or somewhere in between. It’s equal parts strategy, systems, and support, designed for real-life makers who want less chaos and more clarity.

Nope! Whether you're just getting started or already knee-deep in projects and paint water, The Maker’s Blueprint helps you build (or rebuild) a business that worksforyou. It's not about doing more—it's about doing the right things, in the right order. Veteran makers will find systems to scale; beginners will finally feel like they’re not flying blind.

Each module is around 30–45 minutes of video, with action steps and workbook exercises you can do at your pace. Some students binge it in a weekend with snacks. Others take it one week at a time. You get lifetime access, so there’s no rush—just progress. Quarterly we will go through each module in LIVE Zooms. You can join as many or as few as you wish!

It’s all pre-recorded and ready for you when you are! You’ll also get access to our private support group where you can ask questions, share wins, and hear from other business owners who get it.

Glad you asked. You’ll get:

A 100-page workbook
Planning calendars and project launch tools
Email and social media scripts
Templates for inventory, SOPs, and more
Basically, the things you’ve been meaning to create—but haven’t had the time to (or didn't know where to start).

This is not a generic business course written by someone who’s never dealt with 47 paint jars drying at once. It’s made by a DIY studio owner (hi 👋) who’s been in the trenches—craft kits, workshops, mobile parties, staff drama, retail setups—you name it. This is a roadmapfor makers, by a maker who knows exactly what you're juggling. I've ran my brick and mortar studio with a mobile component for over 10 years.
