Our Story
For Noah Arvidson and his wife, living and traveling in a tiny house on wheels meant finding beauty in the small things that make a house your home. This lifestyle of living small inspired a dedication to crafting superior-quality cabinetry and more for your home that are both functional and beautiful. After their travels, they “landed” in Durango (the area Noah had fallen in love with while attending Fort Lewis College) to open Animas Craft Woodworks.

Customer Reviews
“Noah made us a custom front door, a custom live edge table, and a custom light fixture for our new home. I could not be happier with both items. Noah is an artist with the wood he works with. He is great to work with and you can tell he really loves what he does. I highly recommend Noah for your woodworking project. He will make your vision come true.”

“Our experience with Noah has been excellent; from our initial discussions about the design we wanted, to completing the cabinets, to the installation. We really appreciated him communicating and keeping us updated. We will utilize his services again.”

“Noah was amazing from the beginning until the end. He was able to take my idea and create something perfect to enclose a stand alone dishwasher and still be functional with butcher block on top. Noah guided me through the process of material selection, style of cabinet, and stain color. With his professional advice, the cabinet came out beautifully.”
Lori Z.
“Wow! We started with having Noah build a bed frame. It was pretty complicated because it was an adjustable base bed. Noah absolutely nailed it and it is beautiful! We’ve since hired Noah to build an heirloom quality side board, a mud room bench and all sorts of shelving. He is delightful to work with and the quality of his pieces is outstanding. Thanks Noah!”
