Spooky season is done. Time to trade the ghosts and goblins for Christmas chaos!

4 holiday markets. 5 weeks. 1 very busy woodworker.

What could possibly go wrong?

The shop is about to be running full tilt, the sawdust will be flying, and sleep might become optional.

Wish me luck, send the eggnog, and maybe a little help questioning my life choices!

Swipe through to see where you can find me this holiday season. Come say hi, shop local, and help make all those late nights in the shop worth it!

A little bit of everything happening in the shop lately!

Engraving some custom keychains for Indigo Leatherworks, carving out a few ring valet trays, and making another batch of bread knives because apparently I can’t make those fast enough to keep them in stock!

Next up? A fresh batch of board butter to keep all those beautiful boards looking their best.

The to-do list keeps growing, the sawdust keeps flying, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!

Welcome to the glamorous world of woodworking.

Here’s a collection of random pictures and videos I’ve remembered to take over the past few months.

Lots of sawdust, piles of clamps, projects taking over every available surface, and the occasional finished product.

It’s not always pretty, it’s definitely not always organized, but somehow things keep getting made.

If you need me, I’ll probably be sanding something.

Have a custom project in mind? Let’s talk!

It’s been busy in the shop lately, but here are a few projects that have made their way to their new homes!

A bulk order of cutting boards, charcuterie boards, and cheese boards for a local plumbing company to give as customer thank-you gifts.

A few cookbook cutting boards for a local mortgage broker, some custom baguette trays for customers, and an advent calendar that made its way to LuvLocal!

Lots of sanding, engraving, and late nights in the shop, but seeing these projects head out the door makes it all worthwhile.

Whether you’re a business looking for unique customer appreciation gifts or someone searching for a one-of-a-kind gift, I’ve got you covered!

Have something in mind? Send me a message and let’s make it happen!
