Custom, handcrafted pieces made from Mississippi trees, each one a piece of functional art. And now, for the first time, their work is available for purchase on Main Street Collective, starting March 31st.
Buddy Grayson isn’t just a woodworker—he’s a craftsman with a connection to his materials that few can claim. Each piece begins not in a lumberyard but in Buddy’s own backyard, where he personally chooses the wood from storm-damaged trees the wood from Mississippi trees. It’s a process that starts with nature itself. Buddy selects the wood with care, then sands, shapes, and perfects each piece until it’s ready to become a timeless creation.
While his handcrafted birdhouses are a favorite, Grayson Unlimited offers much more.
