Custom furniture 101

When I was able to save enough money to finally build the home of my dreams, I started looking at custom furniture almost immediately.

When you are building a home, you have the freedom to create a space that is the exact size, shape and color that you imagine.

From basic to unique, there are so many ways to go about building the perfect home for you and your family. I have a friend and he owns a furniture building company. He has told me about the most wild pieces of custom built furniture that you can imagine! Some of the things he has built look like they’d belong on a Hollywood set. In the beginning of his days of creating custom furniture, he would make things like bar stools to fit a counter that was not a standard size. You have to think, once you start building a house, nothing is going to be standard. A custom built table requires custom built chairs to match while a custom built vanity requires a custom built stool, and so on. If you are not prepared to fork out a ton of cash on these custom built pieces of furniture, it might be worth it to hold out until you are financially stable enough to do so. People who build custom furniture usually charge a lot of money for their time and labor. The costs of wood can also range from average price to an insane amount of money. Most wood used for custom made furniture is of great quality and will last for many years.
