Welcome to the Dan Mills Woodshop!

I love making stuff out of wood and I'm so glad you're here to see the things I've created. I started out making custom wooden planters and the menu of available items has expanded as I have created unique gifts for friends and family and as I have experimented with new techniques and new ideas for projects.

Have a look below at my current listing of items and if you see something that interests you, click the link for more pictures and details. If you find you would like to adopt one of my creations as your own, give me a call and maybe we can arrange a new home for it. Your home! And if you have something in mind that's not listed or you'd like to customize something you see below, I'm happy to talk with you about producing just exactly what you want for your home or as the perfect gift. My contact info can be found here.
