About Skilled DIY Creations
Founded in 2018 by master craftsman Michael Thompson, Skilled DIY Creations has grown from a small garage workshop into Portland's premier destination for custom handcrafted furniture and home décor. With over 15 years of woodworking expertise and a passion for sustainable craftsmanship, we specialize in creating unique pieces that tell your story.
Our journey began with a simple philosophy: every home deserves furniture that's as unique as the people who live in it. We combine traditional woodworking techniques with modern design sensibilities to create pieces that are both functional and beautiful. From reclaimed barn wood dining tables to custom built-in shelving systems, each project receives our complete attention to detail.
What sets us apart is our commitment to sustainability and quality. We source our materials from local suppliers whenever possible, often incorporating reclaimed and eco-friendly woods into our designs. Our workshop is equipped with both traditional hand tools and modern precision equipment, allowing us to tackle projects of any complexity while maintaining the personal touch that makes each piece special.
Over the years, we've completed over 500 custom projects for homeowners throughout the Pacific Northwest. Our work has been featured in Portland Home & Garden magazine and we've earned recognition from the Oregon Woodworking Guild for our innovative designs and craftsmanship excellence. Whether you're looking for a statement piece for your living room or a complete kitchen renovation, we bring decades of experience and an unwavering commitment to quality to every project.
