I wanted to build an organization that would provide the highest quality hand-carved fireplace mantels at competitive prices. This is not as easy as it sounds.

Our beginnings were humble. We started out with a handful of people at our Lehi location. We filled our client’s orders with a small hard-working and smart-thinking crew.

There were times that I wanted to give up, and I learned some lessons the hard way. But I am glad I stuck with it because Lone Peak Carvings has grown into the thriving hand-carved fireplace mantels and carved wood exterior doors supplier we are today.

Our success has allowed us to expand. We are now able to offer more to our new and long-time clients. At Lone Peak Carvings, we are positioned for our best year ever.

We would have folded long ago if we didn’t have the support of customers such as the many Pacific Northwest interior designers who prefer us. All of us at Lone Peak Carvings salute the people, both customers and employees, who have made our success possible.

While there, we met Kelley and Eric Somer.  We discovered that the  Somers live about a half mile away from us in Alpine, Utah. We enjoyed laughing with them as we swapped stories about home remodeling nightmares.

Kelley Somer is a talented artist who creates gorgeous richly textured paintings.  “My work is all about the importance of people connecting over meals,” Somer said. “I love to cook and entertain. I hope that other people who have my art can experience that time, even if they’re not entertaining at the moment.”

I found it very entertaining to look at Kelley’s work on her website. It is not surprising that Kelley is selling her paintings as quickly as she can finish them. We wish her continued success.

The Wort Hotel is an historic luxury hotel in downtown Jackson. The hotel is full of original Western art- paintings, sculptures, etc. We carved doors for ten themed suites such as “The Cowgirl Suite” and the “Silver Dollar Suite”. If you are in Jackson, stop by The Wort, go upstairs and see the incredibly detailed carvings. (Fortunately, the carvings are on the outside of the suites, so you can see them even if you are not staying at the hotel!)

We always enjoy seeing old friends and meeting new western artists. The caliber of art never ceases to amaze and inspire us.

Resort home and ranch property owners from all over the country talked to us about commissioning custom wood carvings for their elegant homes. Scott is now busy creating new designs to complement mountain properties, new lake homes and even a few ocean homes.
