The Wood Whisperer Guild

Welcome back, and happy new year! We’re excited to kick things off with our first Watch Along Wednesday of the year tonight at 8pm Eastern! If you’re new, or just need a reminder, Watch Along Wednesdays are meant to be a casual, low-pressure, “water cooler” way for the community to come together. We tend to watch older woodworking videos, chat, share ideas, and enjoy some shop talk together for about 45 to 60 minutes. No prep work, no pressure, just a relaxed way to connect with fellow Guild...

Before we close out the year, we just want to say thank you. Your support throughout the year on thewoodwhisperer.com and twwguild.com means more to us than we can ever properly put into words. Whether you’ve been watching videos, building projects, joining courses, or just cheering us on, we truly appreciate you. If you didn’t quite get what you wanted under the tree, or you’re still hunting for a meaningful last-minute gift, here are two very clear ways to make your woodworking dollars go...

Most of these projects have FREE plans or templates and you can access those using the links below. Looking for more easy projects? Check out some of the projects available from our sponsor,...

We’re excited to invite you to a live Preview Party for our newest Guild course, the Parlor Settee with master craftswoman Alex Dolese. This elegant project blends sculpted curves, thoughtful joinery, and refined details into a true showstopper, and it’s just as fun to build as it is to admire. 📅 Tuesday, December 16 at 8pm Eastern, 5pm Pacific During the live event, Marc and Alex will walk through the design, construction process, and techniques used in the build, talk about what makes this...

Hey Guild friends, It’s Watch Along Wednesday, and tonight, December 10, we’re diving into two beautifully crafted cabinets from two of the most thoughtful designers in modern woodworking. First up, we’ll explore Philip Morley’s Wall Cabinet, focusing on the Introduction and Door Panels sections. Morley’s take on proportion, grain matching, and subtle shaping always leads to elegant results, and this cabinet is loaded with ideas you can borrow for your own builds. Then we’ll switch over to...

If you're in the mood for a fun weekend project that makes use of scraps and puts smiles on faces, look no further than these Greeting Card Holders. It's a super fast build and I think they'd sell like hotcakes at a local holiday craft fair. I'll know more tomorrow when we actually try to sell some at our local Flint Hill holiday craft show. In the meantime, please enjoy the video and let me know if you have any questions. For your convenience, here are some relevant links from the video:...

Hey Guild friends, It’s Watch Along Wednesday, and tonight, December 3rd, we’re getting into a couple of great small-shop builds that add a lot of charm to any home: plant stands! We’re starting with Marc’s Tiered Plant Stand from the Guild. It’s a clean, modern design with great proportions and a fun little challenge for anyone looking to sharpen their layout, joinery, and shaping skills. It’s one of those projects that’s approachable but still feels like an accomplishment when it’s done....
