After years of living in the Minneapolis area, we embarked on a new adventure in April 2023 by relocating to Ely, Minnesota. Inspired by countless visits to northern Minnesota's natural beauty, including the Boundary Waters, we chose Ely for its deep-rooted outdoor culture, hardworking community, and thriving artisan scene.

Kelly and Alex Woodworks is a handcrafted artisan shop specializing in woodburning, watercolor, and woodworking creations. Our products are hand-crafted and use traditional techniques and modern tools to create one-of-a-kind works. From intricate pyrography and watercolor designs to functional and stylish woodwork, our shop showcases the beauty and versatility of wood.

We believe in the power of handcrafted items to add warmth, character, and a touch of personality to any space. Every piece of wood has its own character, and we strive to highlight its natural beauty through our designs. Whether you’re looking for a creative gift or a piece for your home, we invite you to explore our work.

All of our completed work can be found on our shop page. Have a custom idea in mind? Please send us a message.

Thank you for stopping by,

Kelly and Alex
