Salty Soul Woodworks

Due to an unexpected emergency room visit yesterday we are closed for the day & potentially tomorrow as well.

I will return all messages as soon as I’m able to.
Thank you for your patience as I recover & heal.

It’s been a rough start to 2025, I’m finally getting back on track & happy to be accepting new orders again.

Right now my turnaround time is 4-6 weeks.
I’m still playing catch up from January as all the catastrophes (see previous posts) put us pretty behind, however I have a little help in the shop when he’s available & for that I’m so grateful!

Aiden is looking to start offering his own line of woodworks through my little shop!
I want to gauge interest if Aiden sold these so leave a comment if you think yes! - I’ve previously offered these & they were super popular!

Happy Monday! Yes, I’m aware it’s *actually* Tuesday Karen. 🙄
However, yesterday we were closed to attend the final funeral service sooooo I didn’t tell you all yesterday. Better late than never right? 🤣

Throwback! 🖤🖤🖤

On right: What I brought to life with “3D” woodworks. Multi layers, metallic paint & attention to the fine details really brought this together perfectly. I love it so much!

✨ My books are currently filling up, but I AM accepting orders with a 2 week turnaround!

Good Afternoon,
I am back open, accepting orders once more & am excited to share some new products, roll out my DIY kits & subscription boxes & launch the new website!

I appreciate the love, support & grace we’ve been given lately. Life has been throwing us curveballs left & right but we are persevering through it all.
Thank you,
- Ashlynn 🖤

Please bear with me, I’m going to attempt to explain the past 2 weeks in one sentence: S**t hits the fan in 3s.

- I say “us/we/our shop” often but it’s 99% of the time a one woman show - just me; I am on day 5 of being sick as ever after taking care of half my family who’s been sick the past week.
- While we survived the Icemageddeon of 2026 I cannot run the laser in these frigid temperatures of Northern Virginia without risking cracking the laser’s glass tube that costs $1500+ to fix & I am absof***kinglutely not working in the garage that has no insulation either right now.

- The past week we’ve had not one but two family emergencies that have removed us from being able to focus on work. Right now we ask for continued prayers.
Additionally, I will be closing shop for a few days for a funeral & to help support my family - I do not know the dates yet.

I’m taking this weekend to try to kick this virus & rest up so I can avoid the hopsital myself! I will be back in the shop Monday & touch base with each client on my books, provide February closure dates & reopen custom orders with an accurate turnaround time.

Here’s a throwback to 2016!
Of course now I want to remake this sign after 10+ years of experience, skill & a completely different style.

From cricut beginnings to now hand painted artwork, growth looks amazing.
