About Us

Hi, we’re Maria and Tim, the husband-and-wife team behind Just a Little Etch! We started our business in 2024 out of our garage in Dallas, Oregon, after years of working in manufacturing and corporate roles. We wanted to branch out into something more creative — and laser etching quickly became our favorite way to bring unique ideas to life.

We specialize in home décor, custom gifts, and personalized pieces, and we love working with other small businesses to create signs and branded items. Most of our work is done with wood, and each project is made with care so our customers feel listened to and special.

Our favorite part of this journey has been connecting with people — from local neighbors to repeat customers who come back for one-of-a-kind creations. And yes, our dog Marlee is usually close by supervising to make sure everything turns out just right.

Thanks for stopping by and supporting our small business — we can’t wait to create something meaningful for you!
