Boardwalk Soap Dish - Poplar Wood

Poplar wood is a fast growing and sustainable hardwood found in abundance here in North America. It performs exceptionally well with water and moisture exposure.

Boardwalk Soap Dish - North American Red Cherry

A sign of luxury, this heavy hardwood finishes exceptionally smooth to the touch. North American Cherry wood will darken and become richer in color over time and with exposure to light.

Boardwalk Soap Dish - Red Alder

Red Alder is a quickly growing and sustainable hardwood that looks very similar in color to cherry wood, though less dense and heavy.

Extend the Life of Your Soap

Soap Saver Pouch

Love love, love these🥰 they are not too rough on the skin and hold a rather large bar of soap. Will definitely be adding this to my shop.

Kyle

Soap Saver Pouch

Awesome for exfoliating and soap saving all in one. Great addition for the soaps.

Sustainable Practices

Our handmade wood products are crafted from wood scraps that are retrieved by the pallet from one of the largest lumber supplier and mill in the Portland area.

The mill supplies Howells Products with the short mill end pieces that are useless to them, but the perfect size for some of our products.

The Beginning

In August of 2011,

Howells Custom Cabinets in Milwaukie, OR shut down due to an urgent family tragedy.

Finding himself out of a job with the family business shut down, Chris Howells (son of owner, Dave Howells) decided to put his wood working and innovation skills to use. He began making items out of wood, such as children's toy building blocks, coasters, wood puzzles, and soap dishes. Chris sold them wherever he went, including farmers markets and Christmas bazaars.

Innovation in Business

Slowly but surely,

Soap dishes grew in popularity and became the most requested item, which led to phasing out other products in 2013.

Using equipment from the old family cabinet shop, Chris maintained relationship with the same lumber suppliers that his family had worked with for decades. Business continued to flourish, despite disbelief over the popularity of soap dishes from friends. Over the next 10 years, Howells Products grew to become the largest wood soap dish manufacturer in the U.S. 

The keys to H/P success has always been superior customer service, innovative designs, and lightning fast shipping.

New Beginnings

Growing the Family Business

20 years prior to his new found success, Chris and his highschool buddy, Jon, had dreamed of taking over the family cabinet shop one day. 

Fast-forward to 2022, Chris brings Jon, now brother-in-law, into the business to handle sales and help with production. 

Both families eventually moved to beautiful Central Oregon where they are raising their families and loving the new small town small family business lifestyle.
