Handcrafted Christmas Gifts That Bring Warmth and Story to Every Home
Give a Gift That Feels Like Home
Every Christmas, we search for the perfect gift: something thoughtful, beautiful, and made with heart. But between mass-produced gadgets and generic gift cards, true meaning often gets lost.
That’s why at Stumps Custom Wood, we create handcrafted Christmas gifts that tell a story of gifts made from real wood, shaped by real hands, and built to last for generations.
From personalized cutting boards to live-edge home décor, every piece is designed to carry warmth, character, and a bit of the holiday spirit into your loved one’s home.
Why Handcrafted Gifts Matter During Christmas
In a world full of factory-made products, handcrafted gifts stand out because they mean something.
Each grain of wood, each edge and finish, carries the story of where it came from and who made it.
At Stumps Custom Wood, every item is made in our family-run workshop in Shelby, Ohio. Our passion for woodworking grew from a story of resilience, and that love is what we put into each board, each shelf, each custom creation.
So when you choose a handmade gift, you’re not just buying an object you’re sharing a part of our craft and your own care.

The Heart Behind Every Gift – Our Story
Behind every board and beam is a story of second chances.
Stumps Custom Wood was founded after a life-changing motorcycle accident, a moment that turned loss into purpose. Through woodworking, our founder rebuilt not just a business, but a way to create beauty and connection.
Today, that spirit lives on in every Christmas gift we craft by hand, each one shaped with precision, love, and resilience.
