Story in Wood – A Gift from the Heart

Looking for a gift that’s almost impossible to put into words?

Let me do it for you – in wood, in verse, in meaning.

Why is it special?

Finding the right gift isn’t easy.

You want something real.

Not generic. Not impersonal.

Something true – that speaks for you.

That’s what Story in Wood is all about.

How it works

1. You tell me about the person, the feeling, the message.

2. Within a few days I send you a concept: shape, mood, and words.

3. We refine it together.

4. I create the wooden object + write the poem or story.

Your gift arrives beautifully wrapped, ready to give.

What’s included

A handcrafted wooden object – the shape of your feeling

A short poem or story – the words of your gift

Natural packaging (cotton pouch or kraft box)

A small tag: “Story in Wood – just for you”

Prices

Mini item (pendant, keyring) + poem: €25–56

Medium item (plaque, tray) + poem: €60–95

Small furniture (side table + poem): €180–250

(Final price may vary depending on idea and materials.)

Who is it for?

Those who want to give from the heart – not off the shelf.

Those searching for a gift that means more.

Those who feel deeply – but don’t know how to say it.

Those who know: sometimes the simplest gifts are the most powerful.

How it’s made

Every piece begins with a story – yours.

If you have an idea, memory, symbol, or dream you’d like to see come to life in wood, I’d love to hear it.

From your story comes the shape. I create a visual concept (in Photoshop), and we refine it until it feels just right.

All objects are made entirely by hand: no nails, no screws, just traditional joinery and natural glue.

Time needed

Small objects: approx. 3–4 days

Small tables: approx. 12 days

Larger projects (e.g. bar table with stools): approx. 14 days

Each piece is made with care – always one at a time.
