Back Story
Hey there! We're Sean and Zach, the craftsmen behind Old Saguaro Woodcraft. Our story began well before our woodworking journey—we've been close friends since sixth grade. Growing up in Arizona, our friendship flourished around our shared love for the outdoors, exploring the desert landscape, and our passion for competitive sports. Over seven years, we played together on various teams, building teamwork skills and a bond that would eventually inspire our future business.
After graduating from high school, we both headed to Arizona State University, eager to explore new opportunities. Post-college, we entered the corporate world, gaining valuable experience but quickly realizing something was missing. The desk jobs and cubicles just didn't resonate with either of us, leaving us craving something more meaningful and creatively fulfilling.
The Start of Our Woodworking Journey
I've (Sean) always loved working with my hands and had become an avid hobbyist woodworker. Over countless weekends and late evenings, woodworking became more than just a hobby—it was my passion. Each project brought new challenges and deeper satisfaction, sparking a vision of turning this passion into a full-time endeavor. Recognizing Zach's complementary skills, I reached out, proposing we combine our strengths to create something unique and meaningful. Without hesitation, Zach was fully on board, and just like that, Old Saguaro Woodcraft was born.
Why woodworking? Simply put, we believe your home deserves better than mass-produced, generic items. Each home has its own story, personality, and needs, and we wanted to craft products that reflect this individuality. Our mission is straightforward: to create personalized, thoughtfully designed, and highly functional pieces that improve your daily life. Every item leaving our Arizona shop is carefully handcrafted from select hardwoods, ensuring exceptional quality and attention to detail in each piece, whether it's a custom drawer organizer or a simple kitchen utensil.
Why Old Saguaro?
The name "Old Saguaro" holds special meaning to us. It symbolizes our deep connection to Arizona, representing the rugged beauty of the desert landscape we both love and the strength and resilience of the iconic saguaro cactus. To us, it's a powerful reminder of our roots, our friendship, and our dedication to creating products built to withstand daily use and enrich your home environment.
At Old Saguaro, woodworking is more than a craft—it's our way of contributing positively to your life. Every piece we create is crafted intentionally by hand, designed to simplify your routines, enhance organization, and add a touch of beauty and warmth to your home. Our commitment goes beyond craftsmanship—we aim to provide a genuinely enjoyable experience from the initial consultation to the moment you receive your product, no matter how big or small.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know us better. We're genuinely excited about crafting something special just for you!
