Professional Business Cards for Carpenters and Woodworkers

Carpentry holds a quiet kind of magic – something about shaping raw materials into something useful, beautiful, and lasting. For me, this isn’t just a design niche – it’s deeply personal. I grew up helping my grandfather in his workshop, holding pieces steady while he built shelves, chairs, and cabinets with the patience only an engineer-turned-woodworker could have.

These cards are a small tribute to that hands-on wisdom and care. While I’m no master carpenter myself, I’ve built a few simple pieces over the years – and these designs reflect both the skill and soul that go into this timeless trade.

“A good carpenter doesn’t just build furniture – they shape the spaces we live in. A good card should show that.”

This post includes just a handful of designs from my collection, but I plan to create many more in the near future. Scroll through the samples below, and if you’d like to browse the full collection, there’s a link waiting at the end.

What to Include on a Carpenter Business Card

For trades like carpentry, your business card should speak with quiet confidence. It needs to say “I’m reliable,” without having to shout.

Here are some essentials to include:

Business name or your own name – Bonus points for adding “custom carpentry,” “joinery,” or “woodworks” to the title for clarity.
Logo or relevant imagery – Even if you don’t have a logo, a visual like a saw blade, planer, hammer, or woodgrain can speak volumes.
Phone number and email – Keep it simple and visible.
Service area or specialties – Do you build furniture, decks, doors? Mention it briefly.
Socials or website – Optional, but good for showcasing your work.

Cards with a rustic tone, wood textures, or tool motifs feel especially right for this niche.
