Welcome to The Hoarder's Workshop
I'm Kirsty, a passionate artisan and the creator behind each of our handmade, upcycled oak plaques. What started as a way to repurpose leftover wood has blossomed into a small business dedicated to crafting functional yet beautiful pieces for your home.
Each plaque is carefully crafted by hand using offcuts of solid oak wood, giving them a second life while also providing you with a one-of-a-kind item. Whether you're looking for a stylish way to hang your dog's lead or need a practical space to keep your keys organised, my plaques are designed to add a touch of rustic charm to your space.
