From Our Hands to Your Home
Crafted with Heart, From Wood to Warmth
At Pipimu, every piece begins with care — and a story.
Our journey started with a visit to a quiet wood workshop in China, where a handcrafted wooden tissue box shaped like a cat stopped us in our tracks. Carved from North American walnut and maple, it radiated warmth, intention, and character.
Behind it stood Joe and Joyce — a husband-and-wife duo who had quietly spent years handcrafting hundreds of healing wood pieces. From animal figurines to trays and kitchen tools, their creations felt like gentle companions in a noisy world.
We knew instantly: this was something worth sharing with the world.
So we built a team — crossing continents, time zones, and cultures — united by the belief that even the smallest piece of wood can bring calm and comfort to a home.
Today, Joe’s Woodworks bridges craftsmanship and creativity across China and Canada. With Joe & Joyce handcrafting in their workshop, and Lucy, Leo, and Tim shaping the brand, design, and global reach — we work together to bring warm wooden companions to people who value softness, stillness, and soul.
Small in size. Big in warmth. Always made with heart.

Our Philosophy - Made to Be Felt. Made to Last.
In an age of speed and stress, we all long for something real — something to hold onto.
Our crafts are not only made of wood, but also of warmth and intention. From seamless blending of walnut, maple, and cherry, to the soothing curves and hand-sanded finishes — what you feel in your hand is not just craftsmanship. It’s care.
✨ It’s not just “wooden” — it’s made with heart.
✨ It’s not just “decor” — it’s a gentle way of living.
What We Make – A Wooden World, Made with Soul
From heartfelt gifts to everyday companions — each piece is unique, lasting, and crafted with warmth.
