Wick House Candle Company We are a Veteran owned candle company. We make 100% Handmade candles.

When your friend starts turning wood bowls....of course you buy some!! Here is a small bowl he did that I purchased and then burned this design into the middle (the solid burn rings he did). It's not sealed at the moment....but I had to share. Added a photo of it finished.

This large order was so fun to do!! And I love that the person that received them for Christmas loved them so much!! Each little one got their own matching tooth fairy box and picture board for their school pictures. And that BBQ piece was super fun to do and let me try new things.

Now offering.....TORCHING!!! 😍🤩 I'm obsessed with this look!! I've sold pieces with the torched look before...but that wood came pre-torched. Now, you can have any piece...any size....torched.

It's Small Business Saturday!! Please be sure to support your local small businesses!! Even if you don't shop mine...here are a few of my personal favorites y'all should check out!! 🖤

Putting in some work this weekend on a very large Christmas order!! Three school picture boards (still working on burning one), three tooth fairy boxes, and this fun BBQ Timer board. Everything still needs stained, painted, and sealed.....but they all look great already!!! Names are blocked out so nobody's surprise is ruined.

I know when I first started this business, I had a couple of people ask me if I made stove top covered, and unfortunately I do not...however, this talented young man does. I have seen his work in person and it absolutely beautiful!! Head on over to his page to check out some of work!! Matt's Wood Designs

Hey, y'all!!! Sorry I've been MIA!! I've been super busy with working two jobs for the last 6 months and with life in general. HOWEVER, I'm back down to one job and will have soooo much more time to get back to the business and to all of you!!!! 😍 Drop some comments below and tell me some things you'd like to see!!!

😍😍😍😍 So these notepads happened!!!! Business cars are finally coming up next!!! 🎊🎉

It's been almost two years exactly since I made one of these. 🥰 I still love this one.

If I were to start offering car air fresheners with my logo on them....but YOU got to pick your color (23 to choose from) and scent (23 to choose from)...would anyone be interested? They would be $10 each.

*Winston's little nose for attention*

Another menu board done....and another to do. Another set of coasters on their way to being finished, as well. I really love the way the choice of stain color my Mother chose makes the coasters look kind of weathered.

Here are this month's "Paint Your Own Woodburning" images. They come burned onto a 12"×9" piece of wood. It's $20 for the picture and the 6 paint colors of your choosing. $5 extra for a set of brushes, and $5 extra for a stained or colorwashed background.

Comment on the photo(s) you'd like. I'll then reach out to you to get your choice of colors and if you need brushes and stain/colorwash. ❤

Keep an eye out!! This month's "Paint your own woodburning " designs will be posted tomorrow. 😍

Happy New Year, everyone!!! I hope you all have a safe and healthy year!!

A couple pieces that were done for Christmas gifts. 🏈🍻

Merry Christmas, everyone!!!! I hope you all have had a wonderful time with friends and family!!! 🎄☃️🎁

Hey, y'all!! I know I've been MIA for a while....but life just gets hectic and crazy sometimes. I'm back at it though and am working on a few projects that I can't post pictures of until after this weekend....but stay tuned!!! The monthly "Color your own" wood burnings are making a come back starting next month, as well!!! I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!!!

A couple of the pieces I've made recently.

I was hoping to hand deliver this one yesterday....but unfortunately things happen. So he's now being shipped instead. I think he's pretty darn cute.

This weekend, I will be going through my house and getting together any new or gently used clothes/shoes/hair products/perfumes/etc to send to the lovely people over at Michele's Mission of Love. If any of you have anything you'd be willing to part with (ANY SIZE/ANY GENDER.....kids, youth, teen, adult....) for an ABSOLUTELY AMAZING CAUSE....please let me know and I can either come pickup or meet you somewhere to get your items to take to them. You can also click on the page name above, and their address is listed if you're not local or if you'd rather send/deliver items yourself or make a monetary donation. 🤗

I know of a little girl that is about to lose her first tooth......so of course I had to make her a tooth fairy box!!!!

Just dropped this beautiful piece off to its new home!!!! Look how AMAZING it looks with the color of those gorgeous floors!!!!!! It going to look sooooooooo good once it's hung up!!!! 😍😍

Super excited to get this piece painted, sealed, and delivered to its new home Friday!!!! 😍

Contact me to customize your perfect piece today!

I gave this to my coworker yesterday, and he said he was going to give it to his wife lastnight....so I feel like it's safe to post here now!! I love the way this turned out!! I had originally put clips on for each year....but we decided to take them off because he liked the "cleaner" look better instead of having all of the empty clips on there.

This piece can be ordered either way, with or without clips (I can give you clips if you'd like to add them on year by year). Also, can be ordered with or without the "P" for preschool.

Hey, everyone!!! We have A LOT of new people on the page so I wanted to take a minute to make a post welcoming y'all, telling you a little about how I got started, and how placing orders works! ❤

Welcome to Sawdust&Whiskey: Handmade Designs by Erika!! My name is Erika and I am the owner/founder/content creator. I started this small business of mine, June 10, 2020 when I got laid off from my full-time job due to COVID. I originally started doing it a couple months before that just as something to do....a hobby. But, I quickly discovered how much I LOVE doing it!! So, when I got laid off I decided to take advantage of that time and get my business up and running. Each piece I make is made with pure love and exceptional attention to detail. I want to make sure that you get exactly what you order and pay for. I do ask questions and send pictures through each step of the process, just in case you decide you want to change something along the way. THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE AND SUPPORTING ME AND MY SMALL BUSINESS!! I LOOK FORWARD TO HOPEFULLY MAKING EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU AT LEAST ONE SPECIAL PIECE YOU'LL LOVE. 🥰 I do make everything in my home, which is pet friendly and smoke free.

Please keep in mind, all of my pieces are made using WOOD. None of it is perfect. There will be knots and imperfections in each piece. I do my best to pick out the best pieces of wood...but sometimes I do have to sand and fill anything that is really bad. Honestly, I leave a lot of them though because they help give the piece character.

Below, is a list of a few questions I often get, along with the answers to each one.

FAQ:

☆How can I order?

To place an order, you can either comment on a picture of piece you'd like to order, or you can message/email me with the idea you have and we will talk about size, shape, and every other detail needed to create your PERFECT piece.

Pieces will NOT be started until orders are paid for.

☆How do I pay you?

I accept PayPal Friends and Family, CashApp, Facebook Pay, and Cash if you are local.

☆Is shipping available?

ABSOLUTELY!!!!!

☆I have questions about my order, how can I get in touch with you?

You can private message me here on my business page or you can email me at [email protected].

☆What is your refund/return policy?

Because each piece is custom made, I do not accept returns. However, if you get your finished piece, and there is something wrong with it or something you'd like changed....PLEASE reach out to me and we will discuss how to go about getting it fixed/changed. I want each of you to be 100% satisfied with your order. You must contact me within 7 days of receiving your order to make any changes/corrections....and to discuss refunds.

☆Do you have a multi-piece discount?

Yes! I absolutely do!! This is definitely something we can discuss while talking about your order.

☆What is your turn around time?

The turn around time truly is based on how many pieces are ahead of your and how how complex they are. If you are needing setting by a specific date,, please let me know and we will definitely work something out.

JUST OVER 24 HOURS LEFT TO ENTER THE CONTEST! Tune in Saturday for news about something I'm going to start doing WEEKLY!
