Our Story

At Bootleggers Dezignz, we breathe new life into retired bourbon barrels, transforming them into exquisite home decor that captures the essence of Kentucky’s finest spirits. Our journey began with Luke Smith, a skilled artisan with a passion for bourbon and craftsmanship.

Luke’s vision was simple yet profound: to honor the rich heritage of bourbon-making by repurposing the very vessels that once nurtured these prized spirits. Each barrel that comes through our workshop carries its own unique tale, having cradled some of the world’s most exceptional bourbons.

With meticulous attention to detail and a deep respect for the craft, Luke personally handcrafts every Bootleggers Dezignz piece. His expert touch transforms weathered oak into stunning works of functional art that bring a touch of rustic elegance to any home.

Our Creations

From eye-catching wall art to intricately designed furniture, our collection spans a wide range of home decor items. Each piece is a testament to the marriage of form and function, embodying both the rugged charm of bourbon barrels and the refined aesthetics of contemporary design.

Our Commitment

At Bootleggers Dezignz, we’re not just creating furniture; we’re preserving a piece of bourbon history. Our commitment to sustainability drives us to reimagine these barrels, giving them a second life and reducing waste in the process.

When you choose a Bootleggers Dezignz piece, you’re not just selecting a unique addition to your home. You’re embracing a slice of Kentucky’s bourbon legacy, crafted with passion and precision to stand the test of time – much like the spirits these barrels once held.
