I had bookmarked maker 1Man1Garage for a future post, but when his adorable mini Christmas tree kit popped up in my feed, I knew it couldn’t wait!

These adorable, affordable DIY kits by Marcus Williams make me happy just looking at them. They are lightweight, making them easy to gift and ship, and reportedly easy to make, but don’t let their simplicity fool you. The finished products still have a big effect.

Williams has also done large custom installations, and those works also bear his signature crisp lines and retro feel. And in spite of the shop’s title, Marcus doesn’t work alone. Not exactly.

“I really owe a lot of creativity from my partner, Ellie. She’s the rescue pup that changed my life for the better. Now at age 6, she collaborates on many ideas with me.”

– Marcus Williams

You can check out all of Marcus Williams’s wonderful work on Instagram, and you can purchase his DIY kits on Etsy.

Tiny houses: rolling out the new Boxed Set option for the original Gothic Cathedral Lamp kit from 2014. You can still pick up the old kit, or chose this new gift box collection, complete with an Edison Bulb too. The box is reusable as a lantern or re-gift it to someone special. Think it will hold a box of wine 😉 #1man1garage #lasercut #laserengrave #3dpuzzle #nashvilletn #etsy #miniature #gothic #architecture #cathedral #nashville #lantern #boxset #packaging

Enjoying the Spring tour of the RetroLuxe here at the Historic Nolensville Buttercup Festival on this sunny day. Had to show off our latest edition to the line. The 1938 Stratoliner Boeing 307 Airplane. She was the first passenger airliner to break the 12,000ft ceiling with a pressurized cabin. #3dpuzzle #1man1garage #buttercupfestival #lasercut #laserengrave #businesscard #miniature #airplane #boeing #stratoliner #nashville #nashvilletn

It’s time! 42 of our major cities now in a smaller, 8×10 wood cut version! It’s just $24 and ships within a couple days! Our studio has been cranking up for the holiday season, and we are so happy to sneak in a last minute gift idea this late. We wanted to keep the price low for creative folks to build a collection of their favorite cities! Seen here, the frame and matting came from a local Big Box craft store for around $20. Super simple to make a statement on your own walls! #lasercut #wallartdecor #woodcut #woodcutprint #citystreets #streetmap #mapart #etsyshop #etsyseller #etsy #1man1garage
