🎉 Celebrating 20 Years of Craftsmanship 🪵
This past December marked 20 years since I built my very first coffin—for my grandpa. That simple pine coffin became the foundation of everything we do at Northwoods Casket Company. And to this day, the design hasn't changed. It's still the same honest, handmade pine box—just crafted with a little more experience and a CNC machine. 😄
To celebrate this milestone, we’re inviting YOU to help us mark this occasion in a meaningful and creative way. We’re planning to laser engrave every surface of one of our plain pine coffins and we want your help with the design!
🌻 Here’s how to join in:
1. Comment below with your engraving theme idea. Think in silhouettes or two-color line art—like a cowboy scene, prairie flowers with butterflies and dragonflies, or something entirely unique.
2. Like your favorite ideas in the comments. That’s how we’ll see which designs resonate most with the community.
3. If Julie & I select your idea to bring to life, you’ll receive a $100 prize or a special thank-you gift.
This is the coffin we’ll be engraving:

Whether you’ve been with us for years or just discovered our work, we’re grateful to walk this journey with you. Thank you for supporting small batch, honest craftsmanship.
Let the ideas begin! 🖤
