Introduction
Hi! I’m Nick Rowan and I’m the founder of Tiny Workshops.
Although I’ve had to give up my full woodworking workshop in recent years, I’m a former professional woodworker and lifelong craft enthusiast. I’ve also been a teacher and instructional designer in the past, creating training programs for some of the biggest companies in the world.
I love making things with my hands and have tried out just about every creative hobby I’ve come across. In fact, I like to say that my favorite hobby is collecting hobbies! To share my love of crafts (and hopefully inspire others to try them out), I started Tiny Workshops in 2020.
Although I grew up in the United States, I currently live with my wife and two kids in Spain. I can’t wait to introduce them to more crafts as they get older! My four-year-old is starting to mix colors and paint with watercolors, and I’m all about it.
My latest craft obsessions: Woodworking, rug tufting, punch needle, macrame, printmaking, and miniatures.
