VanEss Expressions is ceasing all operations.

We will sell what little remains in our On Line Store , but then we are going to
re-think exactly what we want we want to do & how best to proceed in the future.

VanEss Expressions is a Ma & Pa operation - and we both work full time 'regular' jobs.
We started VanEss Expressions because we love working with wood and creating
unique & original wood gifts and home decor items. But in the past few years - it has
started to totally consume our lives, and we have found it just impossible to keep up.
We hope to be back someday- but I don't know when.

We apologize for not responding to those who have recently sent in inquiries,
and our sincere apologies and 'Thanks' to our long time, devoted customers.

Unique & Decorative Handmade Wooden Boxes

VanEss Expressions makes a variety of original & custom, handmade wooden boxes. Each decorative wood box is individually & personally handcrafted, by us, in our Minneapolis, Minnesota workshop - 100% hand-Made in the USA.

Our handmade decorative wood boxes come in a variety of sizes & types of wood; and for a variety of unique purposes. Book boxes & display boxes/cases are typically custom ordered for the specific item the box will hold. Jewelry boxes & tea boxes are usually segmented. Keepsake or Memory boxes come in many sizes & shapes. And decorative handmade wood Gift boxes are a unique & unusual way to present that other special gift.

Handmade from 100% hard-wood - Oak, Ash, Cherry, Walnut, Maple, Hickory & Multi-Wood - all of our decorative wood boxes have the distinctive box-joint corners - structurally superior with a decorative accent. When using a single wood, the effect is subtle; but when combining contrasting wood, the result is quite dramatic.
