Our Story

Welcome to Dilley’s Woodcraft

We’re a small, family-owned business based in Fulton, Illinois, dedicated to turning our love for woodworking into beautiful custom small-to-medium-sized creations.

Our mission is simple yet meaningful: to provide high-quality custom wood creations with a special, personal touch. Every piece we produce is crafted with care, love, and attention to detail—because we believe that every item we make should tell a story.

Who We Are

Our own story begins with us, David and Angela Dilley. We’ve been married nearly two decades, and in collaboration with our family, we share a passion for woodworking!

David is a self-taught woodworker with a knack for teaching our family, and Angela grew up helping her father in his woodworking shop.

Together, we initially decided to try our hands at crafting handmade wooden pieces as a hobby—making gifts for friends and family. But the positive response and encouragement from our community soon prompted us to start showcasing our work at local craft fairs.

We had no idea we would grow that weekend passion into what it is today—our full-time jobs, bringing unique, personalized woodwork to life!

What Makes Us Different

We’re not just another woodworking shop, and to us, you’re not just another customer. When you order with Dilley’s, you’re getting our family’s personal time, care, and attention to your project.

Family at the Heart of It All

At Dilleys’ Woodcraft, family is everything. All of our operations are powered by our tight-knit crew, including our three sons and extended family. Whether we’re brainstorming ideas, working in our home-based garage shop together, or setting up at craft shows—our business is a reflection of the love and teamwork we share as a family.

When you choose Dilley's Woodcraft, you’re supporting a family passionate about their craft. Every piece carries a bit of our story, and we’d love nothing more than to make something special to be a part of yours.
