Peak Creative Works

Your idea, cut, engraved and made to keep.

Peak Creative Works is a family workshop making custom wood signs, engraved jewelry, water bottles and just about anything else you want personalized. Every piece starts from your idea, and you approve the design before we make it.

What we make

If it can be cut or engraved, ask us.

These are the things we make most. If your idea isn't on the list, tell us anyway and we'll say honestly whether we can do it.

Wood signs

Round and custom-shaped signs with lettering and artwork cut clean through the wood or engraved. Business logos, family names, home gyms, patios, nurseries and team rooms, plus layered wall clocks. Large signs can be lit from behind for a glow at night.

Indoor & outdoor

Engraved jewelry

Pendants and charms engraved with dates, initials, places or a drawing. Layered discs let each piece of the story have its own tag.

Gifts & keepsakes

Water bottles & drinkware

Bottles, tumblers and glassware personalized with names, logos or numbers. Popular for teams, coaches, wedding parties and company gifts.

Teams & groups

Custom shirts

Matching trip shirts, drawn from scratch for each family and group by our youngest designers at our Souvenir Sisters brand.

Our work

Some of the first pieces out of the shop.

Every one of these was designed for a specific wall, person or place (or puppy). Tap a photo to see it larger.

How it works

You see it before we make it.

Nothing gets cut until you've looked at the design and said yes.

  1. Tell us the idea

    What it is, who it's for, the size you have in mind and when you need it. A photo, sketch or logo file helps, but a rough description is plenty.

  2. Approve the design

    We send you a digital proof and a price. Ask for changes until it's right. If it isn't what you wanted, you owe us nothing.

  3. We make it

    We cut, engrave and finish your piece, then let you know when it's ready.

Big signs come in panels

Our larger round signs are cut as four or more panels and joined on the wall. It lets us go bigger than one sheet of wood, and the seams become part of the look.

Lit from behind

We can mount a sign off the wall with LED lighting behind it, so the shape glows at night. Ask about it for porches, patios and game rooms.

Questions

Things people ask.

How much does a custom piece cost?

It depends on the size, the material and how detailed the design is. Send us your idea and we'll give you a price with the proof, before you commit to anything.

How long does it take?

Most of the time goes into getting the design right with you. Tell us your date when you reach out and we'll tell you honestly whether we can make it.

Can you use my business logo?

Yes. Send the best version of the file you have, ideally a PNG, SVG or PDF. If you only have a photo of it, send that and we'll work from it. We can only use logos and artwork that you own or have permission to use.

Can the signs go outside?

Yes, with the right finish. Tell us where it will hang and whether it gets direct sun or rain, and we'll plan the material and finish around that.

Do you do group or bulk orders?

Yes. Matching water bottles for a team, gifts for a wedding party or signs for an event are all good fits. Let us know the count when you ask for a quote.

Where are you located?

We're a family workshop in Apex, North Carolina, serving Apex, Cary, Holly Springs and the rest of the Triangle. Ask us if you're farther away.
