Having Custom Furniture Made: Everything You Need to Know

While the idea of ordering a custom piece of furniture may seem daunting and ridiculously expensive the process isn’t as tedious as you’d think.

Why spend money on something that’s kind of what you want when you could have exactly the perfect piece to go exactly where you want to put it?

Here we will go over a few simple strategies to make the whole process less stressful and let you end up with a one-of-a-kind piece that will be your favorite in your home.

Why Create a Custom Furniture Piece?

Have you been searching everywhere for something and you just can’t find the right one. Maybe your vision doesn’t exist yet.

Maybe you want to combine two different pieces into one or you dreamt up a dining table that you can’t get out of your head.

Instead of spending hours and weeks, or even months, searching for something close to what you imagined, create a custom furniture piece and get exactly what you want.

By working with a professional team of artisans, they can bring your exact vision to life and you won’t have to compromise or waste any more time searching.

Planning is Everything

Think about the space you have and where you want the piece to live. Measure the dimensions a few times to make sure you have everything right.

How tall are the ceilings? What else is in the room? Take a bunch of pictures of where the new piece will live so we can get a good idea of your aesthetic. Then bring in as many inspirational images that you can find.

If you love it, we want to see it. This all helps in pinpointing the perfect piece for you.

Pick The Right Piece to Customize

If you’re going to the extra work and expense to create a custom piece of furniture you want to place it in a high traffic area of your home so you can enjoy it every day.

Create a piece that’s going to be functional and usable no matter how long you have it. Things like dining tables and bedroom furniture are used daily and deserve some inspired design.

Request to See The Work

We work in wood and antiques. Some custom furniture shops make their own fabrics and linens. Before you start diving in make sure to come and look at the work that is produced.

The best place to work with to customize a piece for your home is somewhere that you’ve fallen in love with their aesthetic already. Something about their work calls to you.

Maybe you’ve seen a piece in a friend’s home and can’t get it out of your head. You saw something online that you’re getting obsessed over.

This process takes time and communication so if you’re not super excited about the artist and their work, it’s hard to maintain a great experience.

What If I Don’t Like It?

This is certainly the worst-case scenario. You’ve spent all this time working together and then you don’t like the final result.

Here at Tampa Bay Salvage, all of our work is guaranteed. If you don’t like it, for any reason, we will keep working to make you happy and make it what you want it to be.

With over 25 years of experience in design, our carpenters and welders want you to have a piece you will love for a long time.
