Welcome to g3Designs

AFFORDABLE - CUSTOM - HANDMADE PRODUCTS
Made to order in our Upstate New York workshop.

Please take note: On 12/31/2023 we closed our Esty storefront. This strategic decsion was made for several reasons:

  • To reduce the investment in time and financial resources being ulitized for our online presence.
  • To slow the unauthorized copying and commercial utilization of our creative designs and products.
  • To eliminate the administrative and operational requirements Etsy imposes on small creative organizations.

While we join many others in the movement of leaving Etsy, this is no way an indication of our capability, committment and capacity to deliver custom, quality products in a timely matter.

About Us


We exceed expectations everyday!

custom laser work by g3Designs

g3Designs is a division of Grey Goose Graphics, LLC.

Formed in 2020 after receiving a unique request from an existing client and not having the capability or capacity to deliver on their request. The missed opportunity was the catalyst for the development of this division.

Since that time, we have provided custom products to individuals and organizations. Some of the types of organizations we support include (but are not limited to):

  • Breweries and Wineries
  • Sports Teams
  • Festivals and community events
  • Fundraiser
  • Hotels & Restaurants
  • Fire, EMS, Law Enforcement
  • Military Members and Air Crews
  • Corporate Sales Teams

In 2021, we started supporting other local artisans, craftsmen, and fabricators with advanced milling, tooling, cutting and engraving solutions. Today, several rely on us as an integral part of their normal workflow.

In 2023, we began working with clients as part of their research and development process by fabricating custom products to support their manufacturing, operations, and marketing initiatives. We anticipate this part of our business to continue to grow in the near future.

In addition to our direct to consumer channel, we attend a limited number of shows each year. We try to bring a variety of items to each show we attend. If you are looking for something specific, custom engraved, etc., we are happy to connect with you an upcoming show, however, it’s probably best to reach out directly to us.

Whether a gift, promotional item, display, or piece designed especially for you, our team is obsessed with containing costs at each step in the process from material acquisition and production through packaging and shipping. This allows us to deliver custom quality products at a very competitive price.

While our company is just a few years old, our crew has decades of experience in the design, fabrication and finishing process. We are customer focused and have high standards for delivering quality products. All our products are designed and created in our Endwell, NY workshop. Each product is made from raw materials locally sourced. We strive to use reclaimed materials when possible. Our products can be shipped to a destination of your choice.

Our Workshop


Our Endwell, NY studio and workshop is equipped with a variety tools and specialized equipment which allows us to efficiently deliver a quality product.

In addition to the extensive array of hand tools, power tools and heavy equipment you might find in a professional wood shop, we have embraced and implemented bleeding edge technology.

We are one of very few workshops in the State of New York equipped with a sophisticated, liquid cooled CO2 laser. We can cut and etch a variety of products including wood, glass, mirror, tile, stone, leather in our production process.

We also utilize a commercial 3D printer in our workflow for creating everything from specialized tools and equipment to templates and customized parts.

This equipment is what kickstarted our research & development and prototyping services for new customers as well as other professionals.

In January of 2024, we added an industrial grade CNC machine to our workshop. While the specific impact this will have on our product offerings as well as the services we provide to others is too early to discuss, the possibilities are almost endless. We are looking forward to sharing more about the integration of this equipment into our shop in the coming months.

Contact us today to discuss your project or idea. We love custom orders and are always excited about new challenges.

Products


Our quality hand crafted products are custom designed and created using a variety of products. When possible, they are all sourced locally and may vary based on supplier availability, seasonal availability, etc. As a result, our products and “in-stock” inventory is always changing based on material availability, orders, and our manufacturing processes.

Our products may also be made to order and can be personalized to make the perfect gift or the addition to a comprehensive marketing or promotional campaign.

From one to over one hundred items, our products are perfect for:

  • Home Decor
  • A gift for that Special Someone
  • Baby & Wedding Announcements
  • Bridal Party Gifts
  • Birthday, Family Reunion, Anniversary & Wedding Favors
  • Sales Team Gifts or Production Promotional Activities
  • Awards and Recognition Gifts

our products are made using quality materials and constructed using the strongest, food safe glues and adhesives available. When possible, our products are made from reclaimed wood from local mills and distributors.

It is important to note that when working with wood, no two pieces are identical, and it is not possible to make identical finished products. While we can often deliver products with similar compositions such as type of woods, thicknesses, and design/layout, there is always a variance in the final product.


Our "Stocked" Product Line

While a majority of our business is custom work, we also have a small line of items which we stock. This inventory is used for quick turnaround times for small custom orders and it taken to different craft shows and events thoughout the year.

Click on the link below to learn more about these offerings.

Wood Coasters

All of our coasters are hand crafted. From the selection of the wood and "glue up" patterns to the oreintation of imprinting, careful thought is put into each set. From assemblly, drilling, routering, sanding and finishing, out team makes sure that a quality product is produced at each step. All coasters are approximately 4"x"4 and are assembled with recessed felt feet.

While we are proud to offer three basic types of hand-made coasters, the customization possibilities are almost endless. If you do not see what you are looking for, contact us! Chances are we can bring your idea to life!

"Just the Grain"

Just The Grain Coaster

While we love adding a special touch to your product, sometimes wood in it's natural state is simply beautiful without anything more. These coasters may be finished to a customer's specification or finished at the discretion of one of our team members based on the natural colors within the wood used.

In Stock Designs

Stock Coasters

These start with a sanded "just the grain" natural coaster, are then imprinted using a precision laser and then sealed with a fine finish. The stock imprints are typically complete and ready for same business day shipment, however on days with large order volume, it may take up to two business days for shipping.

Custom Designs

Custom Coaster

Our custom designs allow customers to quickly customize products already set up within our system or perhaps a design specifically created for you. Typically, these items ship within 2 business days. Customers wishing to create their own design should click here to learn more!

Cutting Boards

When we started creating our promotional products, we said we would "never" offer cutting boards. There are many artisans, several we consider to be friends who offer beautiful boards made of exotic woods in a variety of patterns. Since then, we have launched a line of boards to specifically address our customer's requests.

Most of the boards for sale on our website and at shows are all without any logo or imprint. If you are looking for something custom built to your specifications or looking to add an imprint to one of our boards, contact us!

The possibilities are endless.

Basic Boards

Basic Boards

No Frill cutting boards designed, built, and priced with everyday use in mind. These hardwood boards glued and finished to withstand everyday chopping, washing, and drying. They are affordable and priced to use, not simply cherish like a higher priced boards made from exotic woods (expensive materials) in intricate patterns (extensive labor) which result in a board costing three, four, five or more times the cost of this durable kitchen board.

Mini Chop Blocks

Chop Blocks

When you do a lot of chopping or butchering you don't want a board; you want a block. The problem is that most butcher block styled boards are big and heavy to maneuver around a kitchen and require a lot of storage space. That is why we created our Chop Blocks. These thick, durable blocks are designed for chopping with a knife or cleaver, will hold up with daily washing and do not require a lot of room to store.

Charcuterie Boards

Charcuterie Boards

Charcuterie most often consists of a variety of meats and cheeses and often fruit or nuts. While we do not provide you the food, we can supply you with one of these trendy boards. Our boards are uniquely crafted using simple materials, in a variety of sizes with the focus on filling the niche for small, durable, quality boards. Our simple, minimalist design is deliberate as we believe our boards should only be the vessel for the food you are showcasing.

Artisan Boards

Artisan Boards

These are the boards we said we would never make as many craft vendors compete for this limnited market! Our Artisan Cutting boards are constructed of a mix of Maple, Walnut, Cherry, Red Heart, Purple Heart, and other specialty hard woods. We are very particular regarding the quality of the wood, the patterns of the grain as well as how they are assembled and finished. If you are paying a premium for a cutting board, you should be getting a premium cutting board. All boards are finished with wounded edges and are power sanded to ensure they are flat and then hand sanded several times.

We can custom build a board with juice grooves, custom lasered logos, images, text and more.

Bulk Productions

Our CNC capabilities allow us to not only create unique and complex shapes and configuration, we can produce as many IDENTICAL in shape and conifuration as needed. Bread boards, beer flight boards, beer tap handles, and branded charcuterie boards are some of the bulk items we've produced for customers.

We often hear from customers at shows that they could never cut on our boards because they are so beautiful. Our response is always the same... “You know you can flip it over?” We recommend reserving the front to showcase your food and use the back (the side with our logo) for everyday cutting.

Wood Slab Bottle Openers

Bottle Openers

With the contiunued growth of mircro brewerys and the small batch cideries the demand for "good old fashion" bottle openers has continued to fuel our simple, cost effective product line of bottle openers.

We start with reclaimed wood which may be a solid piece or glued from smaller strips. The wood may be routered, shaped or laser engraved before being sealed, and hardware attached.

We stock several standard designs, but also offer custom design, laser engraving, etc. for the perfect gift or promotional item.

Contact us if you are looking for something special.

Slate Signs, Coasters & More...

Slate Products

The look of slate has long been associated with warmth while appealing to many different tastes in decour. We started producing generic welcome signs and coasters a few years ago and these have since beecome a desirable gift for new home owners, adding custom decour to a cottages cabins and lake homes.

To accomodate special orders, we typically keep a limited suply of slate sign and coaster blanks in the show for timely turnaround for small custom orders.

Some additional examples of our slate products are in the portfolio section of our website.

Product Care


We want your items to last a lifetime.

At g3Designs, we take our time and work hard to deliver custom wood products and wood coasters which are designed to exceed our customer’s expectations. Below are tips and recommendations to keep your product looking new and long lasting. If you have any questions or we can help you make a selection of one of our custom products or help you care for one of our existing products, contact us.

Natural products.

Natural Wood Items

These products are delivered without any protectant, sealant, etc. This allows customers to finish them on their own to match their other décor, or in a specific preferred way or using a specific product. Natural products are not protected in anyway and may be discolored by sunlight, liquids, or other environmental exposures.In comparison to finished products, non-finished products are more susceptible to changes in temperature, humidity, and may shrink, swell, or warp.

Care should be taken to protect these items from exposure to sunlight and liquids as well as significant changes in temperature or humidity until they are sealed.

Butcher Block Sealants. (Coasters, Cheese Boards, Cutting Boards, etc.)

Sealed Cutting Boards

With care, a cutting board could last a lifetime.

  • Boards can be washed/wiped with dish detergent and warm water. It’s important to always wash both sides, even if you only use one.
  • NEVER put a board in a dishwasher, submerge in water, or let it soak in a sink full of water.
  • Boards should be stored out of direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and away from sources of high humidity.
  • If cut marks start to show up on the face of the wood, you can sand out deep ridges by sanding the entire surface of the board. When done, you’ll need to re-seal it.
  • Even with the proper care, some boards may warp over time. If glue joints fail, cracks appear, or deep cut marks can’t be removed, food and bad bacteria may build up and potentially make you sick. It’s time for a new board.

Danish Oil & Polyurethane. (Coasters and other sealed wood items.)

Sealed Wood Items

Danish Oil and Polyurethane are the most common sealants we use on items that will not have prolonged contact with food and/or have a higher probability of exposure to moisture (like condensation of a beverage glass on a coaster.)

Our products may be manufactured with one or more coats of sealant which may have been applied in spray, wipe on, or brush on formulation. While under normal use, they should not require resealing, however some of our commercial customers or those with more than average use may choose to reseal their items. Light sanding with 400 grit or more is recommended before applying additional coats of sealer over what has already been applied.

Tips for caring for sealed products include:

  • Items may be washed/wiped with dish detergent and warm water. It’s important to always was both sides, even if you only use one.
  • NEVER put the item in a dishwasher, submerge in water or let it soak in a sink full of water.
  • Keep the items away from direct sunlight, high levels of humidity or extreme temperatures.
