Our vision is to inspire sustainable living by showcasing the beauty of reclaimed materials, crafting pieces that honour both nature and craftsmanship. Every item we create is a testament to the potential of second chances—for timber, for art, and for a more mindful way of living.

Meet Jay Hickson

Owner + Creator of Lumber of Love

Driven by a passion for crafting handmade, one-of-a-kind creations, I opened my doors in 2020. My fascination with experimenting across a wide range of materials has fuelled my creativity, allowing me to explore how each can uniquely enhance my work.

With 20 years of experience in the construction industry, what began as a hobby soon grew into a profound love for the craft—and ultimately blossomed into a career designing custom pieces for my clients. Every project starts with a personal consultation, where we bring your ideas and vision to life. Together, we’ll collaborate as I combine your inspiration with my expertise to craft something truly unique.

Each piece is made with the finest, locally sourced, and sustainably rescued materials. Every selection is hand-picked to ensure quality and craftsmanship, reflecting my commitment to sustainability and excellence.
