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 ! !

    This project was a collaboration based on several pieces I liked, but lacked the features I wanted. We were able to come up with a design that is stunning. He was very knowledgeable and helpful in his suggestions to help create this perfect piece. It is a very well built piece that I believe will last for a lifetime (perhaps several). He was able to keep me well informed about the progress of the project with frequent picture updates. I have absolutely no regrets about choosing this maker. He is highly recommended and I will strongly consider using him again for any new items.

    I cannot say enough great things about my modern/industrial-inspired executive desk and the ease by which it took to get there. Michael is an absolute dream to work with; great communication skills, superior carpentry skills, good sense of style etc. I would not hesitate to have him build something else and would highly recommend him.

    I 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.

    Overall a great guy and an excellent communicator. One example of his professionalism was when the first coat of finish didn't come out quite right and he immediately reached out to contact me, and then he worked to perfect the finish until the tables were just right. Made the whole process very easy.

    I commissioned an oversized mission chair from Bungalow White Oak Furniture through Custom Made. I was hoping for a high quality piece that is very sturdy. Not only was I not disappointed but I was also quite pleased with the artistry of the composition. This was expressed in the form of all the parts as related to the pattern of the grain and of course the masterful wood working. The seat features three tiger stripes which really sets the chair apart from anything you could buy in a store. The clear finish adds a sheen as a wonderful enhancement. It will prove to be a valued heirloom for generations, I'm sure. I highly recommend this maker. Please, accept my gratitude for a job well done.
