About Us
At Handcrafted Hardwood Designs LLC, we specialize in custom hardwood frames, serving boards, and one-of-a-kind gifts—each handcrafted with care, tradition, and integrity. As a proud veteran-owned small business, we combine time-honored techniques with sustainably sourced materials to create meaningful pieces that endure.
Our Philosophy & Process
Every creation begins with an idea—often inspired by the natural world or the functional beauty of traditional craftsmanship. We source only quality, kiln-dried hardwoods from local, family-owned lumber suppliers who share our commitment to sustainability and responsible forestry.
The journey of each piece starts with rough-sawn boards that may look ordinary or even flawed to the untrained eye. But beneath the surface lies the story of the tree—told through each growth ring, knot, and imperfection. Our process reveals that hidden character, transforming it into a statement piece for your home.
We believe in honoring the story the wood tells. That’s why we use traditional joinery, solid hardwoods like walnut, white oak, maple, cherry, and mahogany, and finishes that enhance both beauty and durability. Occasionally, we incorporate natural elements like slate or leather to complement and elevate the design.
Our furniture and home accents aren’t just built for utility—they’re made to last generations. We craft with the intention of creating heirlooms: items that are cherished, used, and passed down—not discarded and replaced.
Every piece is unique. While dimensions may be replicated, no two boards are alike, making your item truly one-of-a-kind. We never compromise on craftsmanship, and every detail is considered. The result is a product with soul—something you’ll be proud to display or gift.
Yes, our pricing may reflect the time, materials, and skill required. But with us, you only buy it once. Our pieces are built to last a lifetime—and then some.
Whether you're browsing our current selection, curious about custom options, or have a vision of your own, we’d love to hear from you.
Thank you for visiting—we’re honored you’re here.
