Make it useful. Make it from the heart. Yard Gnome Woodworks
We’re a small-batch woodworking outfit based in the Midwest, specializing in handcrafted furniture, outdoor decor, and practical home and garden solutions. Every piece is designed with purpose—whether it’s a slatted garden bench for your backyard, a firewood rack that keeps the kindling dry, or a custom coffee table built from reclaimed
cedar. Our work blends rustic aesthetics with everyday durability. We focus on clean lines, solid joinery, and wood that tells a story—think cedar, pine, oak, and ash. Each item is made by hand with care and intention, whether we’re building for a farmer’s market, a front porch, or a client’s living room. We value craftsmanship over mass production and believe functional design can still have charm. No gimmicks—just good wood, good work, and a little grit.
