7 More Woodworking Projects That Sell - Wedding Edition- Make Money Woodworking (Episode 14)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 бер 2023
- Grow your woodworking business with wedding "smalls"! You asked for it so here it is. The average cost of a wedding right now is $30,000 with over $2000 of that being spent on decor and rentals. There is a ton of money to be made by renting or selling wedding decor... and if you're not interested in that... these are great high-profit items for any woodworking business!
Let's break down some more builds and I'll also show you step-by-step how to make 3 decorative lanterns using only 1 fence picket!
Often, smaller items are looked over by new builders looking to make a name for themselves because they are looking for "that one build" that they can sell for a ton of money. They aren't considering the cost of the build and the time spent making it. Ultimately any business comes down to profit margins. I'll give you a few examples of how selling items that anyone can afford can generate crazy sales with minimal cost of goods sold!
Sometimes we overthink things when the most profitable items we are looking past. Let's change that.

Would u be able to help me identify some wood that I have in my barn? It's a little over 100 years old. It was leftover from my house that my great grandfather used to build the house I live in now.
I believe it was used for the floor joist.
2×8/12'
2×10/12'
They are reddish brown in color.
I wish youtube would let us post pictures in the comments.
I picked my mom up from work yesterday and she told me she wanted me to make something cheap yet beautiful out of fence pickets. I said I follow a guy on UA-cam that has a bunch of crafts from fence pickets.. Matthew Peech. She pulls up the video and it is your planter boxes lol. Now I have to make those, the snowflakes, all of it!
Busy man soon.
We are very blessed to have Matthew's guidance and encouragement!
never give your source away. only make a few items!
@@jetah she pulled up his channel! I said how do you know about Matthew Peech? She said the planter video was on her feed. I leaked no source!
@David Lynch Actually, UA-cam spies on your accounts on the same wifi, basically. My brother gets some stuff in his feed from what I watch.
Man I love this whole "smalls" series
Nice! It’s one I’ll keep rolling with for sure
This is my 20th year as a wedding DJ. I've seen all the trends. One of the most enduring is the rustic decorations. The log slab centerpieces. The old glass pane door, white washed, with the seating chart written or attached to it (one table per pane). The directional signs. Take your ring box but narrower and instead of boring a hole put a band saw blade slit in one end. Then put a rectangle of card stock with the guest's name and table number in the slot. Instant card holder from a 1" branch that's ½" high. Easy. Wooden crates turned sideways on the desert table. I even saw a 2'X3' board with dowels sticking straight out. Then they hung 4-5 donuts on each dowel and put it on the dessert table. Hysterical. So many options. Thanks Matthew.
Thank you for your experience! Great ideas all.
Hola! 🖐You or UA-cam must have been listening to my conversation with my soon to be Daughter-In-Law who just asked if I can make a few for her, their wedding is this year! Excellent timing that I found this video and I am not lying when I said to her, "sure, no problem", that YOU were the fist resource that came into my mind for how to put it together. This video did not disappoint, thank you. Take care and have a good one, Adios!👊
The fence picket king returns 👑
Love the video!
Lol I do love some fence picket builds
Started making planters boxes. And selling them to my local nursery can't keep up . I am 12 behind as or right nown
Nice! Congrats on the sales. Planters are hot right now.
The square boxes? What do they sale for? Stained ?
Pvc boards would make great material for RENTAL products that take a beaten. Cuts and Attaches like softwood. Pvc comes w/ wood grain on one side and one flat smooth side.
Good ideas. The rental idea is great. Personally I don't want to store rental signs.
It will work for some but not all. Selling them may be better for some.
My opinion is this,,, i am pretty sure that there is always someone that will see these and just make them for themselves.
my husband and i just made a chicken coop out of cedar fence pickets I’ll send you some pictures
Oh nice! I’d love that. Send them to the brag board if you’d like to share with everyone.
Someone needs to make a playlist for you featuring just your fence picket plans! They are friggin genius!
I was blessed I got my whole thing done for 1200 and it was in my wife's dream church of a small white church with wood pews.
“Ole PB is cutting a couple of holes in some firewood and calling it a cutting board” 🤣 I absolutely hollered. 😂
Truth! Lol
Another way to make the colored jars is to put some medium to fine sand blasting media inside of them and shake it up real good to put some texture on the inside of the jar. Clean the jar out. Pour some chalk paint of whatever color you want inside and roll it around until it's coated, pour out the excess. The texture from the sandblasting media will cause the paint to be matte and since it's inside the jar, it makes it more durable and cleaning easier. I used to take cheap glass vases and do this to them and sell them.
Thx for sharing enjoyed it you could add a finial to the top of the lanterns
Yes, pre-turned finials are cheap & easy to install & add a lot to the finished look. I made about 5 lanterns last year, turned out great, added finials that i had saved from old wooden curtain rods! Never throw stuff out! I’ll make a few more closer to Thanksgiving - they make great holiday center pieces.
Thank you Matthew looking for ways to improve my pension. God bless
You can do it!
There's not many people I actually enjoy watching on UA-cam, you are a natural at making videos,enjoy listening to you're ideas and insights,thanks
They're open at the top to allow the heat from the candle to escape instead of heating up the wood and being a potential fire risk.
I don't even have to buy the fence pickets - lol. I have a pile of them I bought at auction for about 5 bucks and they are in decent enough shape to use.....love this series!!
Awesome find!
The candle holders are kind of funny because I saw them at a store and saved a few pictures as a future idea chest.
Yep!
I never know where to get decent wood at. Lowes and Menards are always all jacked up
Sometimes I have to sort through a lot to find the decent ones
@@MatthewPeechWoodworking thanks for replying!
The paint may be on the inside of the mason jars. I've seen crafts where they either spray paint the inside or just pour in a little and roll the jar to coat the inside and pour the extra back into the can.
Yea!
I like all the ideas you share
The whole pumpkin pie thing is starting to feel personal, lol. Another great video, love the lanterns especially.
Lol… thank you!
My mom and my 10 sisters and my nieces love what I learn from you, lol
Lol and I’m sure they keep you busy 😂
@@MatthewPeechWoodworking as soon as the weather is better in Louisiana (lol) I'll be starting my building class for other disabled Veterans back up and your videos will be a big help. You are appreciated, my friend.
"not pumpkin"
Not sure why, but that cracked me up man.
Another great video Matthew.
You could use torch paste to put the writing/designs on them too!
I'm just trying to make a side hustle.
I actually follow many , but also now you Mr .
Love yr videos
Speaking of engraving! IF you do a deep engrave on hardwood, you can buy pro-tec fishing jig paint and pack the engraving, and put up a woodburning pen near the paint. That will melt it right into the wood. Sand and boom, absolutely spot on quality painted engraving
Matthew I just love your happy cheerful heart.💕
Thank you 😊
I recently came into possession of a custom-built wood Tardis. (From Dr. Who.)
I thought, "I could rent this for weddings & geeky photo ops."
Now you've got me thinking bigger.
Yes!
What you're doing is exactly what I've been looking, definitely gonna try several of your ideas. Keep putting out that content.
Could you do a video on cutting boards, with some info on wood types and what way the grain can be laid.
I don't have a shop, I don't have the tools, but I love these videos!
Thank you!
Oh and I wanted to add, I love your focus. Your videos are not all over the place like a lot of different content creators. I appreciate your focus and you're to the point commentary. Thanks for making amazing videos and helping us make profitable items.
Thank you so much!
Agreed!
I bought a quonset shop for $14,000 and put a new roof on it for cheap.
Cannot wait to build some of these!
Love all your stuff. ✌️🇨🇦
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Great Video. Thanks.
Glad you liked it!
Great video
Your ideas for marketing are a great resource, but your sense of humor is the best. Thanks for it all.
I too have a CNC machine and are always looking for ways to upgrade ideas with it.
Awesome! Thank you!
Hola Peech , another great video !!!!! 💥🔥💥🔥💥
For the candle holders, if using real candles, you might want the top open. Seems like it'd be a fire hazzard if not open. You could easily use a medium sized hole saw to drill out a hole in the top.
If using LED candles then you could leave as-is.
I was thinking the same. It can be surprising the heat that rises out of one of those candles.
The ones he showed in the pictures looked even simpler than the ones he built. Like just essentially a bunch of "sticks" all suck together probably with just a bit of glue and brad nails. They appear to just be a square piece of wood cut into many pieces and build a basic little box with butt joints. Even simpler than the design he made.
Thank you, I’ve been really inspired to start back in woodworking.
My husband and I made those lanterns for our wedding a couple of years ago and they were so pretty. I like your version as well. We also made a version of the wooden center piece boxes that holds the jars for my son and his wife's wedding. I loved all of these ideas.
Thank you! 🐝
You are such a mercenary opportunist! I LOVE IT!
Thanks!
Can also do woodburning on it. I use these designs and do custom woodburning on each piece.
Awesome ideas! Thank you, Matthew.
Love your videos. Thank you
You are so welcome!
My mother in law and I are wanting to build stuff for an upcoming wedding and the candles and perfect. We have been updating my wife's office and I have taken some inspiration from your channel even though I am fairly new here. Thanks for your knowledge.
Wonderful! You’ve got this!
Killed it again thanks keep um coming
I just had a firestorm of ideas after watching this. My booth opens on June which is the biggest wedding month. Awesome video!
Love your work
Thanks!
No problem!
Thanks for supporting the channel!
Of all the videos where you mention the importance of staging / decorating the item - how about making a video on the process of staging or adding plants/flowers to the planters, etc?
Thanks for the tip!
Love your videos!
I love these ideas. The decor is the same but given a different name!!
love it! already busy with em😊
You’ve done it again and again.!!! Life the smallest hopefully in a few weeks I have entries for the Brag Board. Keep it up my brother thanx a million!!!
My pleasure. Can’t wait to see your brags.
Really like the candle holders.
How many times has Mathew said fence picket in his lifetime? Love your videos. Love your ideas thanks for sharing!
Maybe we should start taking a drink everytime he says it. LOL! ;)
Wow thx I’m just thinking of renting some stuff for weddings, just asked a neighbour for rounds from a tree they cut down. Not sure how long it takes for the rounds to dry. Love your videos , especially cause you don’t need fancy machines. Thx
Perfect timing for the video then! You’ve got this!
You and your channel is great for us ' newbies', great ideas and breakdown of how things are put together. thks
Glad to help
Great ideas thanks for sharing
Bro peech summer time is close and I got the planters going but seen all your videos how about making wood products for Halloween time
I have had alot of success building and selling vase holders. They are easy to build, paint and “stage” for sale. They appeal to brides, but also as hostess gifts, and centerpieces for holidays (Easter, Mother’s Day, etc.)
Nice idea!
Men that is the best ideas for my future business because I wish to open a wedding and birthday party place for rent
Good stuff man
Love your channel! Funny story, I was planning on opening up my own business this year, before shoulder and back surgery last year, making several items from your channel. One of my concepts was actually renting things for weddings, birthday parties, and holidays too. There have been several ideas that I have come up with then all of a sudden it's on your channel....lol
I just need to come up with the capital to open my store front with shop in the back.
Keep up the good work and as always love your work.
I’m reading your mind lol… you’ve got this.
The mason jars were painted on the inside
You are probably right.
Great ideas again. Thanks for sharing them with us.
You are so welcome!
Always enjoy your videos and your suggestions for small profitable wood projects. Can't wait to try building some of the ideas myself. 💪😊
Mathew thank you for another great video
Love your videos. Hoping to get some stuff built this year. Just built my workshop last year. Just need to finish setting everything up once this snow melts.
Loving the ring box and yes please give us an update on it.
Thanks!
You’re a smart man
Very detail oriented and you cover every aspect and every option imaginable. Thank you for the great content. Look forward to more a lot of inspiration from all your videos.
Another great video!
Another great video, thanks for some more great ideas 👍
No problem 👍
As always.....another good video Matthew. I have a bit of wiring to do in the garage, then I know I have some scrap pieces of pine that I'll turn into some candle holders and add them to our page. Enjoy your day.
1/2inch square strips are often the remnants of your other fence picket builds !! The garden basket is an awesome build and very easy, I made one in cedar, and I like it alot.
Yeah, those are literally the size of the offcuts from the butcher block shelves I made this weekend. 😂
Using your theory of putting personal spins in stuff, ill use the info you gave as well and combine it.
Use the corner brackets from the tissue box video to cover the top end butt joints on the lanterns. Would look BADASS, plus cover any wierd little gaps that may be there from the jigsaw
Another great video showing products to make and sell. Thanks
Very interesting and informative channel. Glad I stumbled upon it 👍
Welcome aboard!
Amazing content keep up the good work, so glad i found your page
Thanks for the advice on R Z Masks love them from the first day. I looked at how much dust it filters out and it’s amazing ordering more now with extra filters.
I love your channel!! Your ideas are out of the ballpark!! 👏👏👏👏
Thank you so much!!
Love watching your videos learn so much ❤
Thanks so much 😊
Awesome! Been hoping you’d make this video since you teased it at the end of the arbor video. Thanks Matt!
No problem!
@@MatthewPeechWoodworking appreciate this may be sensitive info so no worries if you can’t answer this. I was wondering how successful your rental business ended up being and why if it was a success is it now some that you no longer do? I’m assuming you just wanted to move on to other things as you seem like a man possessed with ideas 😂 But, was it profitable for you? I’m thinking of trying it but don’t have much room for error financially.
Thanks Matt great job
No worries!
Just found your videos and wow really Love all the ideals your videos are rock solid and now a new follower Thanks
Good info.
you know what b cool to have d signatures of guest lazer in a board
Another awesome video. Love the idea of rentals but I have no place to store anything. I build and sell asap. My shop is 200 sq ft. I have to assemble everything outside.
Yes, the rental business is not for everyone. These items would still work for build and sell asap.
could use a storage unit!
@@MatthewPeechWoodworking Didn't mean to diminish the business idea with my writing tone.
Love your channel Mathew, you have inspired me to move forward with my own business doing something i love. Thank you!
Great to hear! You can do it.
I'm sure it's been asked.... 😂 How much do you sell these for a piece?
Just found your channel today. We rehab discarded furniture and wood so you are a man after our own hearts.
another great set of ideas and encouragement thank you Mathew
My pleasure!
@@MatthewPeechWoodworking I can't make enough baskets
Another excellent lesson. I like the candle stands and the small ring boxes.
Thanks!
Thank you for all the great ideas. I’m just starting out and you have provided a lot of great advice in my opinion to get started and keep going. Thanks you again. Rick
You’re welcome. You’ve got this!
Would love to see you do a video (or series of them) on where to sell these types of items. Facebook, Etsy, offer shipping or pickup only, craft shows, etc. I ask because we did a craft show this past Dec and had very disappointing results, barely made enough to cover booth cost, nothing for our time or materials.
That's my question, too. Etsy kills you with the shipping costs so I'm not sure where to sell stuff outside of my friends and family. I'll be taking a few things I've made to the flea market next month and I'm curious to see if anyone shows an interest.
