Hi, I'm Morgan Phillips!
Let's get crafty with a DIY project or dig into some planting together!
The Workbench Wench is where your DIY dreams or home jungle aspirations can finally become reality! Lost in the labyrinth of a hardware store or nervously Googling "why is my plant drooping?" I get it, I've been there. Take a deep breath; you've just found your go-to gal for all things DIY and plant care. Whether you're tip-toeing into your first project or ready to tackle that dream design you saved on Pinterest, you're in the right place.
A Little More About Me & My World.
By day, I'm a full-time STEM and robotics teacher for middle schoolers. I really don't like to brag, but I've got a knack for taking super-complicated stuff—sometimes stuff I'm still grappling with myself—and breaking it down into manageable, digestible pieces. It's both my passion and my literal "job" to help others achieve their goals and express themselves creatively. Think of me as your DIY + Houseplant Care Coach with a power drill in one hand and a watering can in the other.
The Why Behind the Workbench Wench
Ever wished you had a "Been There, Done That" expert on speed dial? Me too! I thrive on collaboration and love asking for help. We’ve all endured those endless YouTube tutorials that don’t answer our specific questions. Two heads are better than one, and many DIYs are doable solo with a bit of coaching.
Got a knack for houseplants but also a knack for killing them? From repotting your pothos to propagating succulents, I'll share my plant wisdom. I don’t know everything, but I can teach you how to keep your indoor jungle thriving with a simple care routine.
Together, we’ll cover everything from budget decor DIYs to mixing your own soil. If you’re local, we can even schedule in-person VIP "DIY tutoring" sessions. With a "watch me, now you try" approach, you’ll say goodbye to contractor fees and plant funerals, and hello to the joy of "I made this happen!"
