The Crafty Cockapoo
Welcome to The Crafty Cockapoo! I love to make things. I make and sell everything you see on the page.
Sending this out to its new home today! My customer wanted to coordinate the frame color with some other art in her home, and we were able to find something that works really well! If you are interested in a custom design or color that isn’t currently listed in my please drop me a note. I’d love to help you out!
Working on another order today! This one is Ebony stain with White paint, and a bigger version than I have previously made in this design. Loving how this one is turning out! Now, I just have to seal it, and then go shovel the driveway. Because you know, Minnesota!
Hope you are having a great Friday, friends!
This guy is ready to go to it’s new owner. I’m loving that rich color of the Kona stain with the cream colored paint!
Are you looking for a unique gift for a special person in your life? I have lots of great options, and always love to make something custom for you, too! Drop me a message and we can get started!
Happy New Year, friends!
I hope you are all staying dry and warm these days. It’s been a snowy one here in Minnesota but I’ve been working on a few orders the last couple weeks. This is my last current order, ready to go out tomorrow! Maybe motivation for a New Year’s resolution? Anyone out there making resolutions this year? My goal is to get our new puppy potty trained. It’s a challenge, for sure!
If you are looking for some home decor- as a gift - or a gift to yourself, let me know! I’d love to make something special for you!
Recently, a customer asked if I could make one of my designs in Spanish. I don’t speak Spanish, but she was able to provide the translation she wanted, so I made the sign! This one (and one in Romanian) are on their way to their new homes today.
I love making for my customers. If you are looking for something unique, please let me know!
Just finished packing this fun sign up to ship out in the morning. Love this fun message of encouragement, don’t you?
First time making this one in this color combination (Carbon Gray stain and White paint). Love how it turned out!
If you need me, I’ll just be working on orders to get them out in time for Christmas. Hope you are having a wonderful Christmas season!
A packed up and ready to go! I can’t share the design until after these have been gifted, but if you are thinking about a for the holidays, send me a message. I’d love to make something special for you! There is no charge for the custom design work, you only pay for the sign you order.
Don’t wait too long, spots are filling up!
I just made and shipped this order out- one of my favorite things about making signs is doing designs in a new color scheme. This customer requested classic gray for the sign and frame, with cream paint. I think it turned out great!
Another this year. I can’t believe is almost already here! What’s your favorite part of Halloween? I love, love, love giving out candy to trick or treaters and seeing all of the awesome costumes. I hope you have a great one!
Who’s ready for Halloween? I’m a little late in posting my Halloween designs this year, but I had so much fun designing this guy. I was looking for a retro/vintage pumpkin and once I found this one, the rest of the design came together.
With Fall officially starting tonight, I’m starting to get all the around here. Are you decorating for Fall?
The latest order is done and shipped! This frame is classic gray. What do you prefer? Classic gray or Kona?
I just sent this sign out the other day, and will be making the same design but with a different frame color today. I’m excited to see how the new color combo comes out. Any guesses as to the stain colors? I’ll post the finished product in a few days!
Happy Wednesday, friends!! I keep forgetting to post photos of the signs I’m making. It was such a pretty morning, I was able to get a quick shot of this little guy before wrapping it up to ship to its new home. Hope this brightens your day!
Packing this beauty up today to send to its new home!
A few orders from this week ❤️
Happy Weekend! How’s your 2022 going? It’s been crazy cold here in Minnesota - negative temps - and our back door is frozen shut! But we are hanging in there, and looking forward to spring. Oh, and I’m working on orders! Here’s on that will be going out today. It’s a cute little shelf sitter, perfect for a desk, or nook or any small space. Available in multiple colors, and can be made as a standard sign, framed or unframed.
Just wrapped this fun sign up to ship out tomorrow! I actually saw people skating on a lake (maybe more of a pond) when I was out the other day. is kicking in! I hope you are staying warm and healthy as we close out 2021. ⛸❄️
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Thank you for your support this year. I have enjoyed making signs for you all this year, and look forward to making special things for you next year too!
This is one of my all time favorite photos I have ever taken, from 2017 when Ellie was just a few months old. I think this sums up Sydney and Ellie’s relationship! 🤣🤣🤣
Take care, and I’ll “see” you next year!
Working on a sweet memorial sign tonight. Did you know I can take handwriting of a loved one and put it on a sign? It makes a truly one of a kind gift for someone special, or just for you!
Just finished this order yesterday- this time with a Kona frame. Did you know you can customize my designs by adding a frame color of your choice? And you can select the sign colors too for a one of a kind piece. What can I make for you today?
Working on a today! Do you have something for everyone on you already? I still have time to make something unique for you, but time is running out. Drop me a note if there is something special you are looking for!
Another new design coming to my shop this week. I love this statement of encouragement! Do you have someone on your gift list this year who needs a little boost of confidence? Let them know you believe in them. This design is available in multiple colors and may also be framed.
The finished product! Anyone else thinking about decorating for Christmas early this year? Or is that just me? 😁 if you are, I have lots of options for you, including this new design. It will be up in my Etsy shop in a few days, but you can message me if you can’t wait that long!
Working on some new designs today! Here’s a little preview of one of my new Christmas signs. Just needs a frame and it will be up in my shop soon! Anyone else getting excited for the Holiday season?
Are you looking for the perfect gift? Instead of a sweater or gift card, why not a custom wood sign? Choose from the wide selection of standard designs, or order a truly custom design. Each wood sign is hand made to order, so you know it will be the right size, color and design. Christmas will be here before you know it, so order today!
