Hey hoomans, Scrappy here. 🪚🛠️
Our new Christmas name tags just hit Etsy! Perfect for tying onto gifts or hanging on stockings.

If you’ve got a sec, can you click the link below? If we can get a wave of visits tonight, Etsy will push the listing out to more shoppers tomorrow (which makes Kyle do his happy dance).

Thanks, holiday heroes 🎄

I made turkey legs you can’t eat!

These little wooden drumstick place cards just dropped on Etsy and they’re kinda hilarious. Perfect for the kids’ table or Friendsgiving 🍗

Go look before I take a bite 👇

Guys… this one was a beast.
Three feet wide, completely custom, and headed to its new home on the side of a barn.

When a customer sends an idea, I always say, “Let’s make it happen.”

That’s the fun part of what I do. Every project’s a little different, and every one starts with someone’s vision.

If you’ve got a big idea for your space (indoor or outdoor), I’d love to make it for you.

📏 Custom sizes
🎨 Personalized designs
🪵 Built to last

Guys… I think I have a problem. These circles keep getting bigger. Send help… or a bigger saw. 😂

But in all seriousness, I can’t wait to share a couple huge projects I’ve been working on—and some big news soon!

Cute and chunky? 🍂 Not sure if they meant the leaves or me. 😉 Thanks for the review, Marti!

Happy Saturday, everyone! Quick favor to ask-if you have an Etsy account and have NOT messaged my Etsy store in the past, can you send me a quick message? Just ‘hi’ is enough. Thanks!

Got the booth restocked today with fresh fall décor. If you’re at Painted Tree this weekend, the whole store’s doing an end-of-season event — worth checking out!

Help us out, local friends!

We’re researching fall & holiday craft shows to be part of this year — willing to travel up to an hour from Island Lake. Indoor is a bonus, high traffic is a must, and we’re looking for events that focus on handmade goods.

Which ones should we check out?

Pumpkins, ghosts, and candy corn… oh my! 🎃👻🍬 Fall orders are ramping up, which can only mean one thing… time to bust out the pumpkin spice beard wash! 🧔🏼‍♂️🧼

POV: It’s your birthday… and it just so happens to line up with several shipments of wooden birthday gift card holders. 🎂 Life’s funny like that.

I make risers in just about every size, including this massive 20”er — perfect for plants, décor, tablescapes… it also doubles as a medieval shield in case of dragon attacks. 🛡🐉

Been testing out a new painting technique and everything finally clicked with this magnet. Clean lines and sharp colors. Exactly what I was going for!
