Our focus on furniture happened many years ago (25+) as a result of some left-over lumber, the need for a bench by the backdoor, and a frugal resourceful nature that told us to give it a try. The bench turned out beautiful (we still use it every day), the experiment turned to a hobby, the hobby to an obsession, the obsession to a journey… We design and build custom furniture on commission. Our shop specializes in made to order custom furniture specifically for individual clients.

For Walnut End TableAmy is fantastic! I searched every furniture store on the planet for a specific size end table and couldn’t find what I was looking for. And if I did find something close, it wouldn’t deliver for many months at best. Amy made our tables to the exact size, wood, style and finish we wanted in 1/4 the time any online retailer could. I’m blown away by this service. Thank you for existing!

For Amanda's BookcaseThe bookcase looks great. I think it ended up being a blend of Amy's style (based on her portfolio) and mine, which is fine. She was very helpful and collaborative, sending me updates and a sample of the finish by mail. She worked with me to produce a great piece at a reasonable price. I highly recommend her.

For Red Oak Platform Storage BedWe can't say enough about how pleased we are with the experience of working with Amy Gless of Glessboards and with the finished project they delivered. We wanted a king size bed with storage drawers under the platform and storage in the headboard. Our bedroom has windows on two sides, closets on the third and the entry door and ensuite bathroom on the fourth. The bed could only go on a window wall. Critical to our requirements was the headboard had to be of a height to fit under our bedroom windows. We shopped on-line and in many local furniture stores. Many beds had storage, but always their headboards blocked our windows. Amy worked hard, through several rounds of design, to meet our requirements, making suggestions based on her experience and accepting our ideas too. Also important was matching the finish of our existing bedroom furniture. Amy prepared two rounds of samples until we found a practically identical finish. Amy was upfront about timing (5 to 6 months) and pricing. She delivered and assembled the bed right at the 6 month mark, at the contracted price, which was very comparable to the beds we had seen at furniture stores, except the bed Amy built for us met our design requirements. We would not hesitate to contract with Glessboards and Amy Gless in the future.
