Recognition that actually gets displayed.
Custom awards, employee gifts, and branded pieces for businesses and organizations across Central Louisiana. Local, personal, and built to last.
The Problem With Generic Awards
A plaque from a trophy shop says "we had to get something." We make something different.
Most recognition gifts end up in a drawer. Generic plaques, mass-produced trophies, logo'd pens — they signal effort, not intention.
When you hand someone a piece that has their name, their years of service, and their actual achievement engraved on a material worth displaying — that's the kind of recognition people remember. And talk about. And post on LinkedIn.
CarvingTree.art makes custom awards and recognition pieces for businesses, organizations, and institutions across Central Louisiana — each one made to order, right here, by a real person who cares what it looks like.

What We Engrave
Four materials. Endless possibilities.
Wood Warm, natural, and timeless. Cutting boards, plaques, frames, desk pieces. Laser-engraved to last a lifetime.
Acrylic Modern and clean. Available in clear, frosted, or color. Great for contemporary award designs and branded pieces.
Metal Sleek and professional. Keychains, plates, tags, and nameplates. Engraves with precision and holds up to daily use.
Glass Elegant and impressive. Tumblers, awards, paperweights, and desk pieces that catch the light.
We can work from your logo file, your design, or we can create something from scratch. Just bring us the idea and we'll handle the rest.

Seasonal & Annual Programs
Make recognition a habit, not an afterthought.
Many of our business clients set up annual programs — employee appreciation in the spring, year-end gifts in December, quarterly performance awards. We keep your preferences on file so reordering is effortless.
If your organization does recurring recognition events, ask about our preferred client pricing.
Your team deserves better than a generic plaque.
Let's build something worthy of the people you're recognizing.
No minimums for first orders. We'll work with your budget and your timeline.
