Large Ash Seder Plate With Paisley Background

Carl was great! Super communicative, understanding, and excellent craftsmanship! He personally delivered the order to me (driving 2-3 hours to do so), which was super appreciated.

My working with Carl to create a Virge for use at church was a very easy process. He kept me informed, asked questions where he needed clarification, and sent photos as he completed portions of the project. I would definitely use his skills again if I needed another project done.

Carl went above and beyond with my engagement ring box. He was willing to go back and forth on design revisions as many times as it took to make everything perfectly. He always communicated promptly and was timely with the delivery. The craftsmanship of his woodwork is truly professional and you'll be glad you chose him for your project!

I’m incredibly satisfied with the way my project turned out. This has me eager to celebrate the holidays. And it will be a beautiful tradition that will last for generations. The craftsmanship is amazing. Carl went out of his way to make sure the product was exactly the way I wanted it.

Absolutely stunning craftsmanship and intricate knowledge of the materials and process. Could not have better bang for my buck. Carl was professional, very open and honest communication, and made me feel like a valued customer. Would absolutely work with him again.

Excellent experience - listened to my thoughts and delivered an extremely well crafted product - would highly recommend

Wonderful wonderful product and experience. Threw ideas back and forth till we settled on a idea we both liked. Never felt rushed or pushed. Very good and clear communication. Workmanship looks solid, quick to make, quick to deliver, and the packaging was superb. Very very good experience with this maker.

I am so pleased with the custom tray I received from Carvings by Carl. First, no one wanted my custom project. I reached out for months to woodworkers with no response--except for Carl. Before accepting the project, Carl took time to understand what I was looking. After that, Carl communicated with me regularly re: cost, dimensions, and materials. He also provided photos before he shipped anything. Not satisfied with generic shipping containers for this custom-size project, Carl built a custom-size crate [which is also so nice that I'm going to upcycle it] so the tray wouldn't be damaged in transit. The final result is a gorgeous cherry-framed tray that fits perfectly over the opening of an old interior foyer planter tucked within two crooked walls and a crooked staircase. Carl made sure that the bottom of the tray is sturdy enough to hold the rock garden I am putting into it, and also suggested a shadow line that enhances the dimensionality of the finished piece in its space. Carl is an engineer and his attention to precise detail really shows. I am so glad I found Carl. A custom woodworking project, done from a distance, requires communication and trust. The finished piece demonstrates that Carl is an artisan, excellent communicator, and someone you can trust with your project.

A true artist and professional. Carl takes pride in his craftsmanship. He took my idea and vision and turned it into a piece of art that will hopefully now become a family heirloom to treasure forever.

Great working with you Carl and thank you so much for putting the writing on both sides. Something I didn’t even mention but we’ll thought out! Woot woot. Got it and super executed. Great working with you and can’t thank you enough.

Good job , well done ,, completed on time or ahead of schedule, would use again ,,

Carl did a great job communicating, the final product is made exactly how I hoped and I could not have asked for anything to be better.

Carl was a delight to work with! His craftsmanship, professionalism and excellent communication made for a stress-free project. The final product is fantastic and will be appreciated by many for years to come. I highly recommend Carvings by Carl!

This is the first time using custommade. Carl reached out as an interested maker and gave some great suggestions on my project request. He gave me idea's I hadn't even thought of. He was timely in his communication, even letting me know when he would not be available. He kept me informed at every step of the project,. The finished product was better than I imagined and my husband loved his gift. I highly recommend Carvings by Carl.
