My Handmade Journey
I am a woodcarver, father, organic gardener, musician, photographer, and lifelong admirer of all things handmade. CarvedWoodenSpoons.com began in 2013 after encouragement from friends and family who believed my work deserved a wider audience. What started as a small online shop for custom, hand-carved wooden spoons and kitchenware has since grown to include curated wooden kitchen gift sets and other finely crafted handmade wood products.
I create each piece in my small studio in Brunswick, Maine, nestled along the coast and surrounded by an organic garden, open fields, a flowing brook, and mixed hardwood forest. Nature is both my setting and my inspiration. Many of my hand-embellished designs echo the organic forms found in the landscape around me. From tree to timber, I seek the hidden spoon within each piece of wood. Today, my work has found homes with collectors and cooks across the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, and South Korea.
The craft of hand-carving spoons has remained largely unchanged for centuries. I honor these traditional methods while incorporating modern techniques to produce heirloom-quality pieces with a distinct, refined character. I believe the most meaningful objects are both beautiful and functional. For me, the creative process comes alive when imagination, intention, and skilled hands work together. Each utensil is shaped using a thoughtful combination of tools, techniques, and patience.
Thank you for supporting my handmade journey.
