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.

For Farmhouse Extension Dining Table5.0My husband and I ordered a custom Farmhouse Extension Dining Table made of butternut wood. We had never ordered anything through Custom-made and were a little nervous about making such an expensive investment. Working with Amy Gless was a very easy and pleasurable experience. Amy kept us updated every step of the way, showing us pictures of the progress on our table. She answered our questions promptly and was very helpful and professional in her response. When a shipping problem was going to delay the delivery of our table, she and her husband personally brought the table to my home and set it up for me. Overall, it was a very positive experience and I would recommend anyone to order from Amy Gless without hesitation.

For Red Oak Platform Storage Bed5.0This 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….

For Cutting Board / Sink Cover5.0Amy built the most beautiful cutting board for me. She incorporated other design aspects of my kitchen in the board making it the perfect accent. I recommend her without reservation!

For Kara's Dining Table5.05 Stars for every measure.
I had a lot of demands for this table. It needed to fit into a small NY apartment and expand to seat 8. I needed sufficient leg room (space from the apron to the floor) to use it as a desk and cross my legs.
It also needed to blend with my sort-of-vintage decor.
The final product is GORGEOUS and does everything I need it to. The expansion/engineering part of the table is smooth and elegant.
Amy was patient and sent me numerous finish samples as I decided on the final color of the table. Communication throughout the process was timely and photos were provided in various stages of development.
I would definitely work with Amy again if I ever need another custom piece.
Friends are already asking where I got this beautiful table and I'm happily providing Amy's contact information.Thank you to Amy for such a smooth and enjoyable process and amazing final product!
