Handcrafted, Heartfelt

Crafting family gatherings is what we do best. Together we can build the perfect piece to suit your family's needs that will last for generations to come.

Handcrafted just for you and heartfelt for generations. Homestead Furniture is more than a furniture store. We've been crafting family gatherings and creating heirloom pieces for over 27 years using local, Ohio talent. Whether you're commissioning a piece of hardwood furniture or customizing upholstery from a top-selling retailer like Stanford, Norwalk or La-Z-Boy - if you can dream it, we can make it.

Beginning the moment you walk in the front door, we're here to help you bring your concept to life - from the first seed of an idea all the way through to white-glove delivery. Everyone starts somewhere different. Maybe you already found something you like but it's the wrong size or color.Or maybe you don't have a vision but you do know what you have isn't working. Wherever you're at in the process, we'll meet you exactly where you are. When you sit down with La Vern, Chris or another member of our design team, they'll work at your pace to help you shape each and every aspect of your piece. It's just one of the reasons our furniture is heartfelt for generations.

FUNCTION & SIZE

The first and most important question we ask is, "What's the problem?" What's not working now and how can it be improved? It's important to determine the function of a piece so we can sculpt your vision. Then we'll think more about specifics like where it will go and what size it should be. You might have anything from a basic idea to a very specific image in mind, but either way, we'll help you define what your needs are exactly.


STYLE

Design style is crucial to the final look and feel of your furniture, so it's important to plan out every detail from the cabinet doors to the table legs. You might gravitate towards traditional, transitional, rustic, modern or any number of styles and fusions - together we'll plan the right look for your taste. And for those unsure of the look they're trying to capture, we can help hone in on styles through inspirational photos and existing pieces in your home that are working for you.

THe options are endless with more than 2,000 colors. Spend as much time as you need browsing our color wall for your piece.

SPECIES & COLOR

Once you've established a style direction, it's time to choose the wood species and color to achieve the look you want. If you've got a specific wood in mind - great. If not, we'll guide you in choosing what's best for you, whether it's rich cherry, grainy hickory or durable oak.

For a more modern or industrial vibe, you might consider incorporating metalwork forged in-house or a live edge slab of wood. We offer a large inventory of solid live edge slabs that can be cut down to your exact specifications. Each is truly one of a kind and can be finished with or without bark.

Choose from over 2,000 color and finish options ranging from trendy earth tones to bright and bold Jewel tones to natural wood. Sheens from flat matte to high gloss can be applied over any color before sealing with a special Protekt™ Finish that's tested against battery acid, tomato Juice, fingernail polish and other abrasive substances.

Every pair of hands at Homestead will give your furniture the same detailed level of attention.

DETAILS & FINISHING TOUCHES

With everything else decided, it's time for the icing on the cake - things like hardware, lighting and any other features that give your furniture that final, polished touch. Hardware usually includes knobs or pulls added for aesthetics. Choose whatever hardware speaks to you or build a custom design from our metal shop. Horse shoe-shaped drawer pulls? We can do that. Detailed or oversized hardware can really add a pop of visual appeal, while something simple and streamlined will complement the natural elements of a piece. Incorporated lighting can accent your furniture beautifully or increase the overall functionality.

When the conceptual shaping of your custom piece is finished, we'll sketch everything out for you to scale in 3-D then draft it on the computer using a 3-D software program for your final approval. Next it moves on to the crafting and construction phase, which typically lasts 10-12 weeks. One craftsman will be in charge of your piece from start to finish for the best possible quality assurance.

After final assembly comes white-glove delivery. Prepare your space and our delivery specialists will do the rest from setup to cleanup. Get excited to live with your new heirloom!
