About Us

Artists and people who appreciate good craftsmanship say that wood carving is such an amazing skill to have and a very underrated one.

Once you cut, you cannot stop.

Willie Austin here. I couldn’t agree more to that saying. I have an obsession on wood and making stuff out of it– from a small stool, fancy headboards to intricate animal sculptures, you name it.

My interest in wood carving began when I was 14 years young, when my uncle brought me to his wood working shop. I can still reckon the smell of the freshly cut pile of Mahogany logs and the things he can create out of it. A dull piece of wood transformed to either a work of art or a very functional piece.

I was always in awe with his craftsmanship and I said to myself, “this is something I can do for a hobby”. That little hobby grew and fast forward to 13 years, I finally opened my own custom wood crafts and furniture shop in a little town in Wisconsin.
