Schwink.

Meeeeeeeee.

Bam.

These are the sounds of creating.

Fun and functional art, custom furniture, and urns made with wood scraps and repurposed materials in upstate New York.

SOMETHING FOR

EVERYONE


Losing someone you love is always painful, whether a friend, a partner, a family member, or a pet. Our wooden urns are handmade with love by Leah, with the hope that we can share peace and beauty with you during difficult times.

ABOUT
LEAH (& AMELIA)

“I have an idea!” - This is Leah, all day every day. A self-taught woodworker, she prefers never to make the same thing twice. Her focus is on the flaws that make wood (and people) beautiful, and on using every single bit of wood she can. Sometimes she mixes in fabric or metal or epoxy. She’s a creative freight train! Look out! Amelia hangs in the background, doing finish work, shipping, making stained glass creatures, and reminding Leah to eat and sleep. Together they try to bring more light into the world through art, videos, and their YouTube podcast Now With More Cheese.
