Welcome to the Shop!
Hey what's up guys! Thanks for visiting our Etsy shop.
The Creating Curtis shop is located near Richmond, VA. Where Courtney hand makes custom creations full time. Our domestic woods such as Maple, Walnut, and Sapele are locally sourced, and we do our best to support fellow small businesses! We offer some bold exotic woods too, including African Padauk and South American Purple Heart.
Courtney left her 8-5 job in the spring of 2022 to start Creating Curtis full time.
It was a really hard decision and a big risk but with a supportive spouse (with a decade experience woodworking) and a garage full of tools.. she got right to work!
"I learned everything I know from my spouse, or youtube. I taught myself how to use a Computer Controlled Router (CNC Machine) and brushed up on my digital design skills.
My desire to help folks, combined with a love of working with my hands and ADHD/OCD tendencies allowed this beautiful career to unfold for me.
In that time, I have broadened my available products and spent a lot of time perfecting the ones that mean the most. Name plates is what I make the most of, and I love being a part of someone's pride. I support the military and government workers and am proud to create for them everyday."
