Hey there, maker fam! The holiday hustle is here, but before the season kicks into full gear this week, I’m sharing my wish list to make your workshop merry and bright (and in case any family see's this 😉 ). Make sure to come back to this page!
Some of these are my trusted favorites, while others are dream items I’ve been eyeing (hint hint, Santa!).
A few links below are affiliate links, meaning if you purchase through them, you’re helping a starving artist like me stock up on wood and caffeine.
Thanks for supporting my craft! 🎄 Now let's treat yo'self...
1. Kutzall BurrsMy go-to for shaping wood, Kutzall burrs are a maker’s best friend. High-quality, long-lasting, and made in the USA, these burrs are worth EVERY penny. Their Black Friday Deals (11/28-12/2) include 30% OFF Thanksgiving Day and 20% OFF site wide + 30% OFF select packages through Cyber Monday. Your projects—and wallet—will thank you! Fact? I find using them with shaping to be therapeutic... check out my experience! |

2. AEONLaserYes, I already own two AEON lasers, but their Red Line models are swoon-worthy. And well, they are practically family. But don't worry, you can be too! For Black Friday, they’re offering deals like a free fiber laser or up to $9,000 in free materials (ends 11/29). Whether you’re new to the laser game or expanding your shop, these deals are 🔥... and limited! Need more? Check out 3 Reasons Why I love AEON Lasers ands also, Why I Chose AEON. |

3. Croc ClothCleaning up after a project? Croc Cloth makes it a breeze, especially when your time is VALUED! Just one or two cloths clean my entire laser—no mess, no stress. I have a video showing their magic, and you can grab some through my for 15% off AND free shipping over $30! Did I mention Im obsessed? |

4. Paper and Spark SpreadsheetsKeeping up with bookkeeping can be a chore, but Paper and Spark’s spreadsheets make it simple. It's honestly hard to put into words the value that one simple excel sheet is for my business. Designed specifically for makers, these are lifesavers for tracking expenses and sales. From 11/26-12/3, they’re offering a new deal every day. Don’t miss out! I'm sworn to secrecy in advance 😉 |

5. Always Summer Presets by Ashley VictoriaConsistency is key for professional photos, and these presets paired with Lightroom are a game-changer. They keep colors true to life and remove unwanted shadows. Not an affiliate here—just a huge fan! Check them out for yourself with a little behind the scenes that I did, and purchase them here. |

6. SurfPrep Sanding SystemsA 5” Electric Ray Gen 2+ Pro Sanding System has been on my radar. Introduced to their brand at WorkBench Con last March, Their passion for quality is unmatched, and their Black Friday sales (starting 11/28) are the perfect excuse to snag one. |

7. Bear Woods SupplyMy next big order is coming from Bear Woods Supply, which sells supplies for woodworkers world wide. With items like the Pegas scroll saw and Marathon rotary tool topping my list (Got that, Santa?), there's a lot to love, here! They even created a holiday gift guide to help you shop smarter. |
8. WoodcraftFrom their product selection to workshops, Woodcraft is a maker’s paradise. My wish list here? The King Arthur’s Tools Total Sanding Kit—perfect for intarsia pieces. Pro tip: Sign up for their email list to catch all the sales! |

10. CarharttOften imitated, never duplicated. Durable, dependable, and downright essential, Carhartt is a workshop wardrobe staple. Their Black Friday deals of up to 40% off are the best time to stock up. (Psst… becoming an affiliate for them is on my wish list, but for now, just shop!) There are no overalls or hooded sweatshirts like them. |
