Welcome

My name is Joe Stemple and I've been a woodworker for 30+ years.  My work is a mix of reproductions and original designs.  Some of my pieces are available for sale in my Etsy shop or (less frequently) at local arts & craft shows.  I'm always grateful when others look at my work and take time to send me a note!

Purpose

My goal is to create furniture & home decor accessories that bring joy and satisfaction to people who value & appreciate the beauty of unique, handcrafted work.  I aspire to continually improve my woodworking skills and stretch my capabilities in original design as well as more complex woodworking techniques.

Giving Back

Giving back and having a positive impact is important to me.  All gross sales from Alchemy WoodShop are donated to non-profit organizations.  This includes all of my expenses, including raw materials, supplies, shipping, taxes, etc.  I'm grateful to be in a position to be able to pursue my passion while benefitting organizations in need of financial support.
