Before You Renovate: Lead Safety for Older Homes
Learn how to protect your family from hidden lead hazards.
About the workshop:
Learn how to protect your family from Lead Poisoning. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, "Lead-based paint is still present in millions of homes, normally under layers of newer paint...Deteriorating lead-based paint (peeling, chipping, chalking, cracking, damaged, or damp) is a hazard and needs immediate attention." Young children are particularly susceptible to lead poisoning, and scientists are still uncovering the long lasting effects of lead poisoning in children. In this workshop, an EPA-Certified Lead Risk Assessor Josie Watson will walk us through the steps needed to protect your family and small children from lead poisoning while renovating your older home.

About the instructor:
Josie Watson (she/her) lives in East Westwood with her family. She has a background in Biology and Early Childhood Education, which prepared her well for her journey into working with lead poisoned kiddos, lead-safe home renovation, and ultimately lead poisoning prevention. In 2022 she quickly went from being in complete denial that lead could ever affect her family, to being the mother of a lead poisoned toddler. In the course of having their 1911 home abated for lead, she researched lead safety extensively and eventually became an EPA certified lead renovator. Josie is passionate about empowering parents to keep their kids safe.

About our instructor: Rhett Harkins (he/him) purchased his current home, built in 1886, in 2010 for $5,600 and thus was thrust into the expansive world of home renovations. In 2013 he and his long-time friend and business partner began Red Door Management in hopes to improve historic homes in the neighborhood and provide spaces for Cincinnati residents to be proud of. As the mission became a reality, "RDM Services" was born as a division of Red Door to help homeowners see the full potential of their living spaces and continues to operate today. Rhett believes that our living spaces can be a reflection of both the individuals that inhabit them, and the community of which they are a part.

About this workshop
A class for kids, created by kids! Thanks to The Dapper Hammer (Kalamazoo) for letting us use their super fun youth class idea! Here's what their director has to say about the idea behind this workshop: "A couple years ago, after spending the holiday season making dozens of cutting boards, planters, and candle holders, I was left with buckets of really cool scraps and off cuts. My kids came to the shop with me one evening and while I was cleaning, they raided the scrap bin and started sanding, gluing, nailing, and screwing these scrap pieces together into what my daughter called 'Scrappy Sculptures.'"
In this class, youth will learn about different varieties and colors of wood, learn to use sanders, screwdrivers, clamps, speed squares, and most of all – their imagination! There’s no limit to what kids can create with the time and space to explore new ideas. The class will begin with an introduction and safety talk, some short tool demonstrations, and then students will design and create their own sculpture using hand tools, scrap wood, and glue.
Adults
When purchasing a ticket, please enter your child's name and age.
Upon arrival, please drop your child off by walking them into the building and complete a youth waiver before class begins.
Parents are welcome to stay or leave! There are plenty of local businesses around the corner to grab a coffee, eat, or spend time.
Please plan to return to CCAC 10 minutes early to pick up your kiddo at the conclusion of class.
Safety
Students will use hand tools and learn to operate a palm sander. They will also get to see an adult use a miter saw. Students will be provided with child-sized safety goggles and noise canceling ear muffs, which will be required at all times when standing near power tools. Masks are optional and not provided, please send your child with a mask if you prefer for them to wear one.

The Mission
Do It Yourself Darlin empowers people from all backgrounds to maintain, improve, and engage with the inner-workings of their homes through accessible hands-on education that builds confidence and independence.
What’s more…
We fill a critical gap in practical home education: teaching the fundamentals of how homes work and equipping individuals with the knowledge and skills to care for them responsibly. Our workshops create an accessible, inclusive space where homeowners, renters, and people historically underrepresented in the trades can learn, experiment, and gain the confidence to “do it themselves” or communicate effectively with professionals. Through this work, Do It Yourself Darlin strengthens housing stability, promotes equity in access to the trades, and empowers people to take charge of their homes and futures.
Think of it this way,
Could you do algebra if you never learned basic math? Would you write a research paper before learning to read sentences? No! So why do we expect that homeowners and renters can complete home repair and renovation projects without a solid understanding of the inner-workings of a home?
In a society where there is little in-person opportunity to learn the basics of home maintenance, repair, and renovation unless you are taught by a family member or attend trade school, Do It Yourself Darlin fills an important need: teaching you the ABCs and 123s of how your home works. DIYD workshops will set the solid foundation of knowledge that will empower you to know your home and take care of it.
Think of Do It Yourself Darlin’s workshops like grade-school for home maintenance and renovation. DIYD’s team of instructors are professional contractors and craftspeople who are committed to the “demystification” of your home. They want to address anxieties related to home maintenance and empower their students to feel prepared to “Do It Yourself.” And if DIY isn’t your jam, they will empower you to communicate intelligently with the people you are hiring to do the work.
