DIY Home Interiors

Have you ever noticed that you can always tell when someone’s a handy man around the house.  Either they leave the tools in the hallway or they’re always sanding something down when you visit or simply they’re the person you call on when you need help picking out the right type of wall paint.  Their homes are usually the ones that really feel homey, where you love stopping by after work for a quick chat.  Everything isn’t always in the right place but the house feels liked in and loved.

If you want to create that same feel in your home, you might want to consider consulting with the Brooklyn Custom Furniture shops. This way, you’ll get the same original feel to your furniture, without actually having to do any of the work yourself.  That is, with the small exception of the actual designing, which you will be asked to partake in.

Bronx Custom Furniture shops are a rare treat. You won’t find one in every town or city, because it’s easier and cheaper for a furniture retailer to mass order 200 of the same kitchen table chairs, and keep them stacked in the storage room at the back of the shop.  Besides, by definition they need to be run by woodworkers, who know their craft and who can produce high-quality furniture.

Their philosophy is to create, straight from your sketchbook, unique furniture that offers originality in design, at fair prices, and while maintaining top quality.  What makes the whole process charming is that you’ll be asked to help co-design that cherry-colored chest of drawers you want or the entrance hall door with a vintage tint and chrome knobs. Here’s how it works.  You book an appointment with a design consultant, who takes spec notes based on what you say, and then they add their expertise, and call you when it’s done.  And if you want to design the whole thing, the consultants will happily only step in when your request is ready to be sent to the workshop.

It’s fair to say that you’ll be able to gauge very early on in the process if you’re sitting down with the right design consultant for you. If they’re as excited as you are about making a set of bar stools to go around your floating kitchen centre piece, that’s a good sign already.  Of course, you’ve got to be passionate about your woods, to work in customized furniture.
