About Creative Accents

Handmade gifts of faith & service — Duncan, Oklahoma

Creative Accents is a small but growing wood craft company. We have been doing craft shows in the Oklahoma-Texas area for many years and have decided to put our products on the web. With your support, we will continue.

Betty has been in crafts all her life, from high school until now. She makes the Flag Crosses, Tile Crosses, Cardinal Wall Hanging and Prayer Crosses and is instrumental in the design of everything on this site.

David spent 4 years in the U.S. Marines, 19 months in Vietnam between 1966 and 1968. He later became Commander of VFW Post 3361 in Baltimore, Ohio.

We have been transferred to various parts of the country, and have now landed in Duncan, Oklahoma.

Most of our products are made from scratch to our own designs then carefully cut and assembled. The final quality assurance judge is Betty. If it doesn’t pass muster, it doesn’t go on the site.

We hope you enjoy our work. We’ll do everything possible to make sure you are satisfied.

Inside the shop

The Creative Accents woodshop in Duncan, Oklahoma, with the table saw and planer
The table saw is the most important tool in the shop. Bulk wood is cut to the size each project requires. The planer in the background surfaces the wood to the desired thickness.
The drill press and pegboard wall at Creative Accents
The drill press can drill holes from 1/16" up to 3", so it gets plenty of work.
The router table at Creative Accents
The router table creates the edge profiles on each piece, making it smooth and pretty.
The spray booth where finishes go on at Creative Accents
Practically everything we make gets a finish of paint, stain or clear coat. That all takes place in the spray booth.
The dust collector by the garage door at Creative Accents
The dust collector is for safety and cleanliness. Woodworking creates a lot of sawdust, and the dust collector feeds it into a plastic bag for easy disposal.
The tool chest at Creative Accents
The tool chest and workbench go together as a place to assemble projects and keep small tools ready at hand.
