Odunayo puts on her DIY hat for the day and takes a wood carving lesson from men that have been skillfully shaping wood into everything, from drums, to Ere Ibeji since before she was born.

The father and son duo take Odunayo around their store and point out beautiful objects that we should all be desperate to own in our homes, including a game called Opon Ayooa that is a coffee table staple in many African homes both on the continent and abroad.
