Getting Started
Every piece we offer is unique. It can be styled to match your needs. But how do you determine what style matches right? How do you know what wood type is the right one? What different options are you able to choose from and which ones do you need? In this section we go over the process from choosing out the right piece for you, placing your order, build, finishing, and finally having it brought to your home.

Choosing the Right Piece
Every piece we offer is unique. It can be styled to match your needs. But how do you determine what style matches right? How do you know what wood type is the right one? What different options are you able to choose from and which ones do you need? In this section we go over the process from choosing out the right piece for you, placing your order, build, finishing, and finally having it brought to your home.
Red Oak is characterized by its orange reddish hue with the sapwood being white to light brown. The wood has a pronounced opened grain and is very durable with good wear-resistance. The stain absorbs into this open grain pattern becoming darker where the grain is close and lighter where the grain is more open. This is an ideal choice if you desire a warm look.

Getting Started
This isn’t your average shopping experience. We like to call Amish furniture a “build your own” furniture deal. The benefits of genuine Amish furniture is everything is typically built-to-order so you have a vast range of customization you’re able to do. From what is made out of, the hardware, size, stain, etc. The options are virtually endless. With so many options, how do you know which choices are the right choice? That’s where we come in! Rather than overloading you from the start we try to make the process simple. Let’s take everything one step at a time and start with the basics. First thing is first: what to have it made out of?
Brown Maple is a unique combination of brown, tan, white and cream streaks, and has a more rustic appearance. It is a softer wood so it is more prone to scratches and denting with heavy use. Brown Maple’s naturally soft grain best absorbs medium to dark stains and its smooth surface is ideal for painted finishes. Choosing a lighter colored stain will best showcase the natural range of grain colors in Brown Maple, while a darker stain will blend the grain colors better.

Solid American Hardwoods
Every piece is different but they all share one thing: each piece is made from solid American hardwoods. Picking out the right wood varies from what piece you’re looking to get. Below we’ll go over the basics of each wood.
04.
The Final Steps
You’ve measured twice, looked at some samples and pegged down a color, all that’s left is to get your furniture going. In order to have any order get started, all we require is half of your full total and the other half isn’t due until your furniture is just about to be delivered to your home. Once you’ve settled on everything, we overlook your order to ensure everything makes sense for us, our builders, and especially you.
05.
The Building Process
The building process is only as fast as the slowest builder. Every piece is built from scratch and does take time. Each piece of your order is coordinated to arrive to our central finish shop around the same time regardless of who is building a specific piece. Our recommendation when trying to get a status for your order is to call closer to the end of the estimated timeframe you’re given. If we don’t see your full order at the finish shop closer towards the later part of your estimated date that is when we start pulling beards and snapping suspenders to find where your furniture is at.
06.
The Finishing Touch
We use a central stain shop for virtually all of our orders. The benefit of doing this rather than letting the builders stain your furniture is every piece will come out looking the same. Once your whole order shows up at our stain shop is when the staining process begins. It’s stained, wiped down, and then placed in a large walk in oven to have the finish sealed to wood.
The Home Stretch
Your furniture is now built, finished, and finally ready to take its place in your home. Depending on which shipping option you chose will determine how it get ships out to you. We offer two different type of delivery methods: Curbside and In-Home. There are a couple differences between the two. The first difference is how your furniture is shipped to you. Curbside delivery has the your furniture shipped to your front door. Where as in-home delivery will have your furniture set up inside your home. Price is another difference between the two. Curbside is cheaper than in-home delivery and setup. Alternatively, you can pick up your furniture at our showroom; free of charge of course.
