Capitol Reef National Park Ornament

Commemorate your journey through the  handcrafted Capitol Reef National Park Ornament, inspired by the park’s dramatic geological features, pioneer-ranching history, and remote beauty along Utah’s Waterpocket Fold. From soaring domes and natural bridges to historic orchards and dark skies, this keepsake captures the heart of Capitol Reef.

Each ornament is 100 percent handcrafted in the scenic North Georgia Mountains from premium birch wood. No two pieces are the same—variations in grain, stain, and paint add a unique personality to every design. All designs are laser-cut, engraved, hand‑painted, and sealed for lasting quality.

Choose Your Design:

• Ornament 2: A color-accented version highlighting the pale sandstone domes, blue sky, canyon shadows, and orchard greenery—evoking the striking contrasts found by travelers in the park.
