Missouri, but make it walnut.

⚠️ BETTER TOGETHER MONTH IS HEATING UP ⚠️

Valentine's week? Almost sold out.
River Epoxy workshops? Going fast.
Valentine's Day brunch? DOWN TO 2 SPOTS.

We told you February workshops would fill up. We weren't kidding.
Our most popular workshop from 2025—River Epoxy Serving Trays—is back with two ways to create: Make it from scratch (2-day) OR pick a pre-poured tray and finish it on Valentine's Day.

Plus chocolate boxes, hand-turned pens, personalized frames, nesting charcuterie boards, and more throughout the month.

🥂🍓 ALL Valentine's weekend workshops feature bubbly drinks & chocolate-covered strawberries!

If you've been waiting for the "right time" to book—this is it. Before "I'll do it later" becomes "It's sold out."

SOMETHING NEW IS HAPPENING THIS SATURDAY

We're bringing our farmers market booth indoors - permanently.

This Saturday, 2-4pm, we're launching The Store at Sawdust Studios with two incredible local makers joining us: Kleo Kolor (press-on nails that actually stay on) and PermaLinx Jewelry (permanent jewelry - yes, welded right onto you).

🔨 In the store: Cutting boards, charcuterie boards, wooden goods made right here in our shop. Workshop gift certificates for the people who'd rather make something than buy something. And you can watch us work.

☕ Hot chocolate, good vibes, BYOM (bring your own mug)
3150 Paris Rd, Columbia | 2-4pm this Saturday

And here's the thing - starting Monday, we're open every day, 7am-7pm. No more waiting for Saturday morning at the farmers market to grab that cutting board you've been thinking about.

(Don't worry - you'll still find us at the farmers market on Saturdays starting in March. We're not going anywhere, just growing.)

You know someone who needs this.

Maybe they've been saying "I wish I could make things" for years. Maybe they're stressed, stuck in routine, craving something real. Maybe they just need permission to try.

This year, give them more than a gift card. Give them a welcoming woodshop community where beginners become builders, where mistakes are part of the journey, and where they'll discover what their hands can do.
