Handmade Pickleball Gifts: Wooden Ornaments, Gnomes & Décor

COSMICDEVA / FROM THE STUDIO

If you love pickleball, you know how easily “just one more game” becomes the plan for the whole morning. As a pickleball player and the artist behind CosmicDeva, I enjoy bringing a little of that playful spirit into my handmade wood creations.

My wood pickleball collection includes cheerful gnomes, Christmas ornaments and paddle-shaped wall art. Whether you’re looking for a gift for your doubles partner, a thank-you for a coach or something fun for your own home, there’s a design to celebrate your love of the game.

“Check the Courts” Pickleball Paddle Wall Art 

For the person whose favorite place is the pickleball court, my Pickleball Paddle Wall Art brings that enthusiasm home. The layered wooden paddle features floral accents, a pickleball and the playful phrase “Check the Courts.”

At approximately 15 inches tall and 9 inches wide, it makes a colorful accent for a wall, craft room or indoor door. Choose the hand-painted version, ready to hang, or the unfinished DIY wood kit to paint and assemble in your own colors. The DIY kit arrives unassembled; paint and glue are not included. This paddle is decorative wall art, not playing equipment.

“Gone Picklin’” Gnomes in Blue and Orange

My “Gone Picklin’” gnomes bring a little personality to the pickleball lifestyle. Choose the blue-cap gnome or the orange-cap gnome—each with layered wooden details and the engraved phrase “Gone Picklin’.”

Approximately 5 inches tall, these hand-painted ornaments are finished with a wooden bead, jute cord and a brown-and-white checkered bow. Enjoy them year-round on a decorative hook or in a game room, then give them a special spot on the Christmas tree.

A Gnome for Your Number One Player

The Number One Pickleball Gnome Ornament is ready for the court with a pickleball headband, paddle, ball and gear bag. His raised “Number 1” hand adds a playful finishing touch.

This approximately 3.5-inch-tall ornament makes a fun gift for a favorite teammate, coach or doubles partner. It’s a small way to say, “You’re number one in my book!”

“Have a Volley, Jolly Christmas”

Bring your favorite sport into your holiday decorating with the Have a Volley, Jolly Christmas Ornament. Its layered design features a pickleball court, crossed paddles and a center ball, with the cheerful holiday phrase engraved into the wood.

The approximately 4-inch round ornament is finished with a wooden bead, hanging cord and red-and-white checkered bow. It’s a festive keepsake for your own tree or a thoughtful pickleball Christmas gift.

“Dink the Halls with Pickleballs”

For anyone who loves a good dink and a good holiday pun, my Dink the Halls with Pickleballs Ornament combines both. A festive garland accented with pickleballs, crossed paddles and layered details gives this approximately 4-inch ornament its dimensional look.

Hand-painted colors and a black-and-white checkered bow add a cozy touch. Tuck one into a teammate’s gift bag or include it in a pickleball-themed holiday exchange.

A Little Humor for the Court

The Pickleball Making Tennis Courts Great Again Ornament brings a cheeky court-side joke to the collection. Its compact layered design features a pickleball court, crossed paddles and a ball, finished with a wooden bead and checkered bow.

At approximately 2.5 inches square, it’s a small keepsake for a pickleball friend who enjoys a little friendly tennis-versus-pickleball banter.

Handcrafted in My Alabama Studio

I create these pieces in my CosmicDeva studio in Enterprise, Alabama, using layered laser-cut wood and hand-painted finishes. The painted ornaments are finished on the back, too, and small variations in wood grain and brushwork give each piece its own character.

These designs are made to order, so please check each listing for current options and processing times, especially when shopping for a holiday or special occasion.

From a cheerful gnome to a festive ornament or a paddle sign you paint yourself, I hope you find something that feels just right for your favorite pickleball person.
