We enjoy making custom Commemoration Plaques for our clients. We’ve been honored to be part of the design and creation of such unique pieces celebrating business ventures, military advancements, weddings, anniversaries, personal retirements, homecomings, home purchases, and precious baby births.
With so many reasons to celebrate, it’s a good thing that there isn’t an end to the styles and shapes which constitute a Commemoration Plaque. They can be crafted from various materials — from Acrylic to Zebrawood, and so many in between. Commemoration Plaques are an excellent means of expressing your creativity while celebrating a memorable milestone. Your personalized Commemoration Plaque can be displayed on an easel or hung on a wall.
We were commissioned to create a one-of-a-kind Wedding Anniversary Plaque for our client’s parents’ 50th Wedding Anniversary. This project had an endearing element in that the wood used in the creation was from a Maple tree which had at one time graced the couple’s property. Our client relished the opportunity of retaining the live edge.
Our client also requested a dedication to be carved on the back of the Plaque. This certainly made an attractive keepsake for the couple.

Equestrian Tack Armoire
Give the gift of organized storage –
This tack cabinet has room for everything but the horse. Our client came to us with a limited budget and a wish list of features for this custom tack cabinet. The tack armoire was ordered “unfinished” so that our client could enjoy the process of painting the cabinet with the recipient of this thoughtful gift.
Everything on the wish list was incorporated into the design – right down to the heavy-duty swivel casters. With two saddle racks and two bridle brackets, it’s going to be a breeze to get organized. There is plenty of storage throughout and a hasp lock to keep it all secure.
What do you need to help get your barn or stable in order? Our Groom Boxes can certainly help keep your grooming tools tidy. Or perhaps you need the whole tack armoire. Contact us and let’s get started designing your tack cabinet.

Personalized Gifts for the Bride & Groom
There are so many wonderful items which would make memorable gifts for a newly married couple. A couple’s wedding registry would certainly provide well-wishers with an abundance of suggestions. Having a gift custom crafted and personalized is undoubtedly a wonderful way to celebrate the Bride & Groom’s union, as well. Our Serving Trays can be custom carved with the couple’s surname or their monogram to commemorate their special day. The Serving Tray’s surface area is your blank canvas waiting to be carved with your unique design.
This recent creation featured the Bride & Groom’s names, along with their surname and the year of their family’s establishment. We hope the lovely couple enjoys their new Serving Tray for years to come – in serving one another and practicing hospitality.
All the best to Elissa & Joseph Maxwell. We wish you peace & joy.
Congratulations from all of us here at Gathering Wood.

Personalizing Your Kentucky Clock
Our Kentucky Shaped Clock artistically conveys the outline of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. You can also order your Kentucky Shaped Wall Clock custom carved with your preferred text.
The clock pictured below was custom ordered to simply read “Home”. For our client, temporarily living outside the Commonwealth of Kentucky, this subtle aide-memoire hinted to the time that he would someday return to Kentucky.
For another client, the Commonwealth of Kentucky is now home. However, he didn’t wish to forget his birthplace in Canada. Along with carving his surname, we incorporated the beautiful Maple leaf as a subtle reminder of his Canadian roots.
Contact us and let’s discuss your custom Kentucky Wall Clock.
Gentleman’s Valet Tray
This Gentleman’s Valet Tray was created from domestic Cherry hardwood. Our client appreciated the beauty and elegant detail of our oval Serving Trays and wanted to incorporate the same touches into a Gentleman’s Valet Tray.
With the addition of a custom carved monogram, we created a unique gift to sit atop her father-in-law’s dresser top or nightstand and hold his pocket accessories. Handcrafted solid Cherry hardwood feet brought the finishing touches to this custom design.
