About Us

The Good Knot is a family-owned and operated business based in Burlington, Ontario, Canada. We've always kept ourselves busy by learning new things and creating. Over the years, working with wood has grown into a passion. Wood is such a versatile medium, and each board has its own character and beauty, knots and all. We are meticulous in selecting each board for our products, bringing richness, uniqueness, and beauty to each piece. For each product, we begin by considering who it is intended for.

When designing our spatulas, we carefully examined the pans and pots used in a kitchen, considering the ergonomics of how someone scrapes a pan or stirs a pot. This information was used to create a number of designs, which were then tested for how they feel, how they look, and how they perform. This process led us to the current spatula design, one that we love and can't live without in the kitchen.

When crafting our tree families, we looked to our own young family and looked to create our own traditions during the holidays. However, buying more Costco or Amazon decorations didn't offer the connection to our family that we were looking for. So, we explored simple, beautiful designs that go beyond basic decoration. Each tree is made from a carefully selected piece of wood for its beauty and character. The designs allow each person to combine them to represent those in their family. What's even nicer is that as families grow, you can always add more. We've also found that we don't limit their use to just the holidays; we keep them up all year long as a small but beautiful reminder of family.

We are passionate about what we do, and we sincerely hope that you enjoy our products and that they become cherished parts of your family.
