When it comes to furniture stores in Temecula and Murrieta, there really aren’t any high-end options. The furniture stores in the area that sell dining tables are more of the discount variety. For most homeowners, these options are completely fine. They aren’t necessarily looking for a dining room table that will last for a lifetime—just one that will meet their current needs and fit in their current home. They know the style of their home may change down the road, or that they may move to a different home in the near future, so they don’t want to invest in a high-end dining table right now. People who are just looking for a “good for now” dining table can often find something suitable at stores Jerome’s Ashley Furniture, or Living Spaces, or even online from sites like Wayfair.
The people who turn to custom furniture makers in Temecula, Murrieta, or Menifee for custom dining tables are often those who have purchased or built their forever home in the area. They are looking for a piece that they will use for the rest of their lives. They want it to be sturdy, durable, and have the exact look that will complement the style of their home. They don’t want to settle for something they find in a store that is almost what they want—they want it to be perfect in every way (size, shape, color, style, etc.).
For our clients, quality is very important. They want a table built from solid wood, as opposed to one that uses veneered products. At Smith Farms, we use many different hardwoods for the custom dining tables we build. For those who want a table of the lighter variety, we typically use White Oak, Ash, or Maple. If a medium-colored wood is desired, we often go with Cherry, and for those who want a dark table, Walnut is a popular choice. However, we are open to working with many different types of wood, so if you have something specific in mind, we are happy to talk to you about it! And if you’re not sure what type of wood will look best in your home, we can make suggestions based on your style and preferences.
Some of the first decisions you will need to make when it comes to the actual design of your dining table will be its size, shape (round or rectangle), and the style of the base. The most common dining table base styles are 4-leg bases, trestle-style bases, or pedestal bases. From there, we will get into the finer details.
If the process of designing a custom furniture piece overwhelms you, don’t let it! We will walk you through the entire process. If you want to take your time to think through your options, that’s no problem! We’re also here to help you weigh the pros and cons of the various options. We’re not here just to build you a piece of high-quality furniture, we want you to have a great experience in the process as well!
