My Story

Welcome! I'm Sarah, the creative heart behind Coal Country Woodworks. I believe that a home should be a reflection of who you are and the connections you build. Through my custom signs and home decor pieces, I aim to create meaningful designs that bring warmth, inspiration, and a personal touch into every space.

In 2020, I had been creating hand lettered signs for several years and found that I couldn't compete with makers who were using stencils and vinyls. I had followed some scroll saw artists and decided to try my hand at a new tool to set my work apart.

I knew I wanted to grow my business, so I signed up for a virtual conference for female small business owners where we were challenged to figure out how to serve our customers. I considered what I was craving at the moment, and since we were in the thick of the pandemic, the obvious answer was connection. I knew I couldn't possibly connect with all of my customers in a deep, meaningful way, so I shifted my focus to providing connection to my customers with their loved ones. 

And that's how handwriting signs were born.

While I make many different types of signs, I've had the privilege of making hundreds of handwriting signs and each one is as special as the next.

Whether you're looking to memorialize a loved one, add a personal touch to your home, or give a unique gift, my goal is to help you tell your story. Each piece is crafted with care, attention to detail, and a passion for making your vision come to life.

I’m so excited to share my love for home decor with you and help you create spaces where memories are made and connections are cherished.

Let’s create something beautiful together!
