The Lady Behind the Lumber

Built by hand. Made with purpose.

Hi, I’m Katelyn—the maker behind Lady & Lumber Co.

After serving 12 years in the United States Navy, I discovered a love for woodworking toward the end of my military career. What started as a hobby quickly became something more: a way to create meaningful, one-of-a-kind pieces that honor the people, careers, and memories behind them. I decided to turn that passion into a business and build something of my own.

Lady & Lumber Co. is a woman-owned woodworking business specializing in custom military keepsakes, challenge coin displays, personalized gifts, and handcrafted pieces for the home.

Every piece is made by hand, from the first cut to the final finish. I put care into the details because I know these aren’t just pieces of wood—they can represent years of service, a hard-earned accomplishment, a special person, or a moment worth remembering.

Whether you’re honoring a military career, celebrating a first responder, commemorating a milestone, or looking for something uniquely yours, my goal is simple: create something that means as much to you as it does to me to make it.

Thank you for supporting a small business, a veteran, and a fellow maker.

Built by hand. Made with purpose. Made to tell your story.
