I made my first piece of furniture right before our daughter was born. It was a little changing table I made from 3/4 plywood; drawers and all ! I painted it brown and my wife made the cushion and covering for it. We were both very proud. Our daughter now has a family of her own, and two years ago I made a changing table for her first child (our first grandchild!) I've come a LONG way since then ! !
90% of all the furniture you see here or in my shop is made in the true Arts & Craft tradition. Using quarter sawn white oak, mortise and tenon joinery, hand rubbed Tung Oil or phenolic resin based varnish with a minimum of five coats. Heirloom quality pieces that can be passed down generation to generation. Beautiful in it's natural state or stained per your request. There is no inventory; all orders are taken and custom made. Delivery usually ranges from 8-12 weeks (depending on current work load). Sideboards, dining tables/chairs, corner hutches, hall trees/benches, hall tables, end tables, coffee tables, clocks, mirrors, etc. ALL patterned after the furniture that was popular at the turn of the 20th century and made with beautiful quarter sawn white oak. While this furniture was primarily made from quarter sawn white oak, I realize that some may want their custom made piece made from some other species of wood. This is not a problem. as you can see from some of the photos, I frequently use cherry, walnut, maple, etc. when called upon. Regardless of the wood used, you will love the quality and appearance of your heirloom quality Arts & Craft furniture from Bungalow. I guarantee it ! !

For Dining ChairsI had 10 chairs made by Michael Barnhill (d/b/a Bungalow White Oak Furniture). I am in the process of returning each. The issues are too extensive to described in this comment section. Very bad experience.

For High ChairI was very satisfied with my project… Michael was informative, knowledgeable and helpful… I give him the highest ratings… I know he encountered a serious personal problem that delayed the project and I was very understanding of this, life happens, but he always kept me informed and followed through with excellence.

For tableMike is one of those craftsman and all around good guy that restore my faith in people. From the first time we communicated until I received the beautiful, custom tables he communicated with me regularly. He was professional, timely and most of all honest. The solid teak tables he crafted for me will be in my family for many generations and I will definitely use his expertise again. He also will be receiving referrals from me since everyone that enters my home makes a comment about the unique tables he built.
My thanks go to Bungalow White Oak Furniture for a great experience!
