Your Vision, Our Craft—Transformed into Wood, Grain, and Glory.
We’re a husband-and-wife team based in Indiana, with one of us a proud disabled U.S. Marine. Every board we cut, join, and finish is crafted with purpose—designed to fit your needs, your space, and your story. From custom planter boxes and cornhole sets to heirloom furniture and smart storage solutions, we build using sustainably sourced hardwoods, time-honored joinery, and a whole lot of heart.
At Made by the Middletons, we don’t mass-produce—we craft joy, one piece at a time.
Please note: We do not carry inventory at this time. The images you see reflect custom pieces built custom for our clients.

Your Ideas. Our Hands. One Custom Treasure at a Time.
At Made by the Middletons, we treat your ideas like blueprints for something special. Whether you know exactly what you want or just have a spark of inspiration, we’ll bring it to life with quality materials, old-school joinery, and the kind of care you only get from people who love what they do. Every piece is made to fit your life, your space, and your story.

One-Off Handcrafted vs. Mass-Produced Woodworking
-
One-Off Handcrafted Woodworking
Whether it’s a custom table, shoe rack, or a simple tray, every piece we make starts with your vision and ends with something built to last. We use solid hardwoods, traditional joinery, and hand-applied finishes—not mass templates. The result? A piece with soul, built around your needs, your space, and your story.
-
Mass-Produced Woodworking
Mass-produced furniture and décor are made for efficiency. They often rely on cheaper materials like veneers or particle board and cut corners to save time. While they can be functional, they rarely reflect the personality or purpose behind your space—and they often won’t hold up for generations.
Choosing between handcrafted and mass-produced comes down to what you value most. If you're investing in something meaningful—whether it's a centerpiece table or a small personal gift—handcrafted pieces offer unmatched character, quality, and story. Built with care, meant to last, and made just for you—that’s the difference.
Highly recommend!
A few months back, I asked Rick to commission me for another project. He has been amazing, seeing my crazy thought process.

Exactly what I wanted, Rick Nailed it!
I'm extremely happy!! (So, I ordered a second cornhole set).
I love my second set, the custom art work is over the top! I love it! Sturdy, Rick killed it again.

Grillmaster wanted a grill prep area
I hired MBM to build mean prep table for my grill station. He nailed it, and lasered the wording I wanted. I've had it for over two years, still going strong!
