At first, all I had was a chainsaw.
I have always loved creating and crafting, but my path towards this business was lit when I set out to design and build a small firewood storage hut and used my chainsaw to make the cuts. The quality of the work was questionable, but I enjoyed the process so much that I began acquiring more tools and with those came more confidence. My next project was a neighborhood library made out of two wall cabinets from Facebook Marketplace, followed by a decorative 8×16’ shed for backyard hangouts.
Since that time, I have expanded the scope of my work, incorporating artistry and unique design into my builds. I also enjoy creating small gifts and wall art for your home, which enables me to serve people at a variety of price points, and I have a passion for reworking furniture and existing materials in new functional pieces. I use wood burning, stenciling, or engraving by hand for the lettering on my pieces and a scroll saw for the artistic cuts on my wood designs, and I take great care and pride in my work.
I currently offer one-off woodworking and furniture products, hand-made gifts, and custom builds. You can visit my shop here to purchase items I have already made, and if you visit the Custom Work tab, you will see what I can design and build to fit your vision and style. I am also very excited to offer in-person shopping for some of my homegrown goods and handcrafted work at my new roadside stand, beginning in October 2026.
Thank you for visiting Snipe Run Craftworks LLC! I am based out of Powhatan, VA and I can ship or locally deliver many of my pieces.
