MyStory

Welcome to Wishing Well Woods — a tiny workshop with a big love for wood, woodland creatures, and creating things by hand.

I am an artisan maker based in the UK, creating a range of beautiful, whimsical, and often nature-inspired laser-cut and handcrafted gifts. Every piece that leaves my workshop has been designed, cut, assembled, and finished by hand.

It all started with a passion for woodwork and a fascination with what a laser cutter could do. What began as a hobby quickly grew into something more — a desire to create beautiful, meaningful pieces that bring a touch of warmth and wonder into people's homes.

I work primarily with high-quality birch plywood, chosen for its lovely grain, strength, and sustainability. Each item is carefully cut using my laser, then sanded, assembled, and finished by hand. It's a process that takes time, but that's exactly the point — I believe handmade things carry a special kind of magic.

Why “Wishing Well Woods”?

The name "Wishing Well Woods" holds a double meaning that I'm rather fond of. “Woods” speaks to the forests and woodland scenes that inspire so many of my designs — the bees, birds, flowers, and hedgehogs that fill my collection. It also a nod to what I actually make: things from wood. And the “Wishing Well”? That's the hope I put into every piece — a wish that it brings joy, sparks a smile, or becomes a treasured keepsake for someone special.

Handmade in the UK

Everything I sell is designed and made right here in my workshop. I'm proud to be a small, independent maker and I pour my heart into every item. When you shop with me, you're not just buying a product — you're supporting a real person doing something they love.

Thank you for visiting, and I hope you find something that makes you smile.
