Boo Wood
About Me
Hey, nice to meet you! My name is Matt, A.K.A Boo, and I’m just an 18-year-old who loves the great outdoors and anything with tires, tracks, paws, and hooves. And most importantly I love the GOOD LORD! I have one bro who is my employee and best bud, and a mom who was my teacher for my whole life, and a Dad who is a master at all trades!
Since I was young I loved working with my dad. One of our favorite pastimes was, and still is, wood working. We enjoyed making toy trucks and walking sticks the most. One day I decided to make a walking stick for my cousin and the final product was jaw dropping (in my opinion). I made another and another and another, until I just had way too many sticks. So, I started selling them to family and friends by word of mouth.
Then was born – “Boo Wood” and I began to branch off by making many different things you can see on my website and I am continuing to expand my product line to this day! Some popular items I make and sell include vases, coasters, office sets, and bracelets.
One of the many reasons I love wood working is that you can be creative and totally different than everybody else! As you get to know me, you shall see that I like to look at things GOD made a different way.
I hope you will come to my Grand Opening in 2019. It will be a blast!

Master Teacher
I have been an apprentice to Wes Quigley for over a year. He is the owner of WHQ Woodworks, a company founded by he and his father in 1993. WHQ Woodworks is a full-service millworks company, offering fine art furniture making and architectural design. Wes has taught me many invaluable skills for the custom furniture and cabin making industry. He is an all-around great guy and extremely talented teacher. I am grateful to Wes and his family for letting me interrupt their lives, as I have spent numerous days at his shop working with him. Working with Wes has been a once in a lifetime experience.
