“What I’ve always loved about working with wood or flour is you can spend your whole life doing it. The joy, the art, the beauty is in the imperfection.”
Slow crafted. By hand. One at a time.
Some people meditate. I build our houses, furniture, and doors.
I bake our bread in between.
I made this website to share a little bit of this love beyond my family.
Choose American Rock Maple or Southeastern Black Walnut.
Here’s what I think.
Working with wood, like flour, is a craft. You can only get better by doing it more. The joy is in making.
I love making stuff for people I love. From building our house to baking baguettes. Crafting unique doors and custom furniture, rolling buttermilk biscuits and Neapolitan doughs, all for my wife and daughters and family and friends.
I think every loaf you bake, every board you shape, is gift of more than the time you spend making it—it’s a gift of all the time you’ve spent honing that skill.
That’s how wood and grain become the ultimate expressions: you can give your loved ones entire decades of time and love in a single piece. These pins are like that.
Also, I don’t need your email.
