  • Great service

    This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

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.

    The table and benches she crafted are beautiful. Amy picked beautiful wood out and her woodworking skills and finish work only enhanced the wood. I was kept informed on how the project was progressing and sent pictures of how it was coming together. Glessboards made the entire experience of buying custom furniture very pleasurable. They also have a preferred delivery guy that is just great. I will be purchasing a dining room set next year, and I will be going back to her. I could never have gotten the quality of furniture that she produced from a furniture store-no matter what price I would have paid for it.

    These chairs are absolutely gorgeous and an amazing value. We feel so lucky to have found Glessboards and hope to use them in the future. Not only are the chairs beautiful but Amy was excellent at communicating and providing updates, and the delivery was flawless. Highly, highly recommend!

    This has been an easy project, at least for me, mainly due to Amy. She had been easy to reach, flexible with the schedule and modifying the project on the fly, including completion of the project and delivery. Thank you Amy….

    Amy made 3 beautiful dining chairs to go with our farmhouse table. The process was super simple: I explained what we were looking for and she suggested a design that made perfect sense. We selected our wood, she sent stain samples, and the chairs were delivered right on schedule! We could not be happier with how they turned out.

    Working with Amy was pure joy. I had two bedside stands custom built by
    A local carpenter. I asked that same carpenter to make two more bedside stands, same measurements only stained a different color. After waiting ten months, and then looking online for something close to what I wanted I decided I didn’t want yo settle and decided to google custom furniture makers and found Custom Made.
    Amy was THE maker for my project.
    I sent Amy the measurements, a picture, and a sample of the color I was trying to capture. Built to Perfection! I wish she had made my first two bedside stands! Excellent communication, excellent pricing. CAD drawings were emailed to me and different sample stains were sent via mail to settle on the correct stain color with some tweaking. The project was completed a month before her original timeline. She shipped on a Thursday and were delivered on the next day! I was not home to accept the delivery so I don’t know how they were packaged up. No damage, so how they were packaged worked.
    I find myself walking into the guest bedroom several times a day when I’m passing by, stick my head in the door, admire them and smile!
    What a blessing! Thanks Amy! The waiting is now over.
