Do an image google search for "wood" or use a Photoshop plugin to do this

AlienSkin has some of the best plugins:

The AlienSkin Eye Candy: Textures plugin has a wooden texture in its texture generator:

Alternatively, there are many tutorials about wood. Check http://www.good-tutorials.com

Here are a couple:

edit > fill
use - pattern
custom pattern - wood

its basic but i dont know the look you want. but i would do as md5 first suggested.. simply search for a wooden texture on google and then paste it - position it - then cut it to the shape you want
