Through her relatable articles and humorous social media posts, Emliee has created a safe space for new and aspiring woodworkers to gather, learn and get inspired to break out the power tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We caught up with Emilee to learn more about how she got started woodworking, DIYing, blogging and creating a community of fearless female craftswomen.&nbsp;In the video below, she demonstrates how to build one of her outdoor projects:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Build a Honeycomb DIY Garden Trellis\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-wxZCc3EAT8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>How Life On An Isolated Base Led Emilee to her Passion&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are now studies confirming what most parents have known for centuries: boredom inspires creativity and innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was certainly true for Emilee and her husband:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen we got married we were stationed in California at a very destitute location in the middle of the desert. We didn\u2019t have a lot to do and we couldn\u2019t afford very much furniture for our house. Thankfully, we found out the base had a wood hobby shop with all the tools you could need and people to teach you. Plus, it was only around $4 a day to use it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A curious yet slightly intimidated Emliee convinced her husband to go with her and check it out.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSo we went and it was really amazing. I was the only woman there and that was kind of intimidating but the staff never made me feel out of place. I asked a lot of questions, and I didn\u2019t even know how to use a drill! But they were so patient and it was not the kind of opportunity every woman has. What started as something to spend more time together as a couple turned into my passion and my hobby.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"996\" src=\"https:\/\/www.neforestrydistribution.com\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mama-Needs-a-Project-Bench.jpg\" alt=\"Emilee sits on a table she made\" class=\"wp-image-957\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.neforestrydistribution.com\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mama-Needs-a-Project-Bench.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.neforestrydistribution.com\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mama-Needs-a-Project-Bench-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.neforestrydistribution.com\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mama-Needs-a-Project-Bench-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.neforestrydistribution.com\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mama-Needs-a-Project-Bench-768x765.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Emilee shows off a handmade table.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>Her Hobby Soon Turned Into An Online Business<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once Emilee mastered the basics in the desert hobby shop, the couple was relocated and started a family. Emilee planned to continue working her day job, but the stress of parenting, working and her husband\u2019s deployment schedule necessitated a change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI left my job when my son was 18 months old to become a stay at home mom. It was really wonderful&#8230;but I needed something that was all mine and didn\u2019t involve me doing things for everyone else. So I started the Mama Needs A Project blog.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting a good blog isn\u2019t without its challenges for the tech novice, but just like with woodworking, Emilee didn\u2019t let her inexperience stop her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t have any experience building a website or marketing or anything like that, so there was definitely a big learning curve. I am still not a tech wizard but thankfully everything is Googleable and now I have it under control.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>As The Blog Evolved, It Became More Focused On DIY And Simplifying Woodworking For Women<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI found I really enjoyed writing about DIY building, but then I started learning how to make woodworking plans and share them with other people. Having people building my plans has become the best and most fulfilling thing about the website!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since starting Mama Needs A Project, Emilee noticed a trend:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve had so many women reach out to me and I\u2019ve helped a lot of them build their first projects. But I\u2019ve had so many <em>more<\/em> women reach out and say, \u2018I really want to do this but it\u2019s overwhelming, I\u2019m scared, etc.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSo, I feel like my mission has turned into simplifying DIY and encouraging more women to get started building. I truly did not learn how to turn on a drill until I was well into my 20s and I think depending on where you\u2019re getting your information it can get really complex. But really all you need is just a saw to cut the wood, a drill to join the wood and\u2014if you want it to look pretty\u2014you probably need a sander.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Emilee added that she started with all second-hand tools, and encourages newbies to start there and upgrade as their interest\/skills evolve. She\u2019s also big on helping women learn how to create functional and efficient workshops in small or temporary spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve moved around quite a bit so we\u2019ve had to pay attention to making things mobile, functional and safe while taking up the least amount of space.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Make a Scrap Wood Christmas Village\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/erdPT4JEzIo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Emilee demonstrates how scrap wood can transform into home decor in a matter of minutes.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>Emilee\u2019s Favorite Wood, Worst Project Ever And Where She Goes For Inspiration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Emilee\u2019s go-to wood for the majority of her projects is pine or white wood found at your typical big box store.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI feel like it\u2019s really good for learning since it\u2019s more accessible and less expensive. But I feel like maybe I might branch into some hardwoods some day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Part of the reason her blog has been successful is because she shares her project successes <em>and<\/em> all her mistakes. Here\u2019s what she had to say about her worst woodworking blooper ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe project that still haunts me is our dining room table. It was my first really big project and I built it in the garage and stained it and put on several layers of topcoat. Then, I moved it into the house and the house lighting made me realize it was a deep orange and it looked horrible! It didn\u2019t match our floors or anything and I just hated it. So I tried to live with it for a few days, and then moved it back into the garage and just had to sand for hours and hours and re-stain it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSo I learned to always look at a stain sample on the exact lumber you\u2019ll use in the lighting you\u2019ll display the project, because each piece of lumber can vary in how it takes stain.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked where she went for inspiration as a newbie, Emliee\u2019s go-tos were fellow female woodworkers Ana White at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ana-white.com\/\">ana-white.com<\/a> and sisters Whitney Gainer and Ashley Turner at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shanty-2-chic.com\/\">Shanty-2-Chic<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"DIY Modern Wood Planter\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OJyqh2c4PMc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Emilee showcases her modern wood planter.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>Tips For Moms On Carving Out Time In The Shop<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The belief that stay-at-home-moms have tons of free time to pursue hobbies is a complete myth&#8230;especially when you have small children at home. Emilee, who is now a mother of 2, has found a way around this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy son is 4 and he\u2019s been helping me in the garage since he was 3. These days we work when my infant is napping. From the very beginning we focused a lot on safety. So he has his own ear and eye protection, and we taught him to stay away from all the saws and things like that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur setup has also made it easier in that I\u2019m able to roll my tools, benches, etc. into the driveway. So, I\u2019ll set up something for him to do like sidewalk chalk or build towers with the scrap wood. He\u2019ll come over and he\u2019ll help. He\u2019s good with the drill and can even bring me drill bits. It\u2019s fun to have him out there, and a lot of projects I\u2019ve done are for him. He feels very proud.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She stressed that every child is different in terms of their ability to listen, follow directions and stay out of trouble. Do what feels safe for you based on your child, setup and level of patience\/confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"761\" src=\"https:\/\/www.neforestrydistribution.com\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Inspiring-Woodworking-Women.jpg\" alt=\"Emilee stands in a workshop with tool benches, tools and a saw\" class=\"wp-image-960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.neforestrydistribution.com\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Inspiring-Woodworking-Women.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.neforestrydistribution.com\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Inspiring-Woodworking-Women-300x228.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.neforestrydistribution.com\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Inspiring-Woodworking-Women-768x584.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Emilee helps take the intimidation factor out of woodworking for beginners, letting them know it&#8217;s ok to make mistakes and learn from them.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>Emilee\u2019s Best Advice On How To Get Started DIY Building<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI would say to start small and just pick one project you want to do. Then, if you don\u2019t have the tools yet, buy the tools for that specific project.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once again, Emliee emphasized the importance of making and embracing mistakes:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRegardless of how much you prepare, you\u2019re going to make mistakes. Even though that can be really frustrating, I think it\u2019s one of the most rewarding parts of the hobby. Just knowing when you look at a finished piece that you also see all the things you had to learn and mistakes you had to fix makes it so meaningful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI used to get really hung up on the mistakes, but now I just call it character and that makes it even better.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To learn more about Mama Needs Project, download plans and more, visit <a
