Custom Orders

Every piece from Gentle Grain Workshop starts with your vision. Whether you need a cutting board built to exact dimensions, a charcuterie board for entertaining, or a serving tray in a specific wood combination — I build it from scratch, to order.


How It Works

  1. Tell me what you’re looking for — wood species, size, add-ons, and any details. Use the contact form or call/text directly.
  2. I’ll reach out within 2–3 business days with a quote and any follow-up questions.
  3. Once you approve the quote, a 50% deposit holds your spot in the build queue.
  4. Your piece ships when complete — typically 2–4 weeks from deposit.

Have a question before you commit? Send me a message or call/text (908) 458-6097 — I am happy to talk through your project.

Something Else in Mind?

If it can be made from wood, I can probably build it. Reach out and describe what you’re thinking — I’m happy to talk through any project.
