If you’re new to the world of custom furniture, having a custom, solid wood end table or side table designed and built for your home can be a great place to start! End tables and side tables are small pieces that can still be dramatic statement pieces in a living room. When placed next to a couch or a chair in one of the most-used rooms in the home, these tables often see daily use, while also contributing to the style of the room.
When you work with Smith Farms for custom, solid wood end tables or side tables, you get the exact style and size you want, as well as a finished piece that is built to last a lifetime!
Uses for Side Tables and End Tables
Most people use side tables as functional pieces of furniture. They are there to hold your drink while you’re sitting on the couch or in your favorite chair. They provide a surface on which to place a lamp for extra lighting in your living room, or they might even hold your remote control or the book you’re currently reading. Drawers can be added to store small items to help keep your living room from becoming cluttered.
If your living room doesn’t currently have any sort of side tables or end tables, you and your guests almost certainly feel their absence, since they can have so many practical uses.
However, these types of tables don’t have to be purely functional. A well-designed table can also serve as a beautiful decorative addition to your living room.
At Smith Farms, we design side tables and end tables that are stylish, as well as sturdy and useful. Every piece we construct is unique to the client who commissions it. During the design phase of the project, we go over with our clients how they want their table to look and how they see it being used. We then create a piece that checks all of their boxes.
Wood Selection for End Tables and Side Tables
Almost as important as the design of the end table or side table is choosing the species of wood from which it is built. There are so many great options when it comes to hardwoods! Here at Smith Farms, we have some favorites, but we always work with our clients to select wood that is perfect for their needs and that will complement the design of their piece.
We have many beautiful slabs of wood in stock at our shop, but we are also happy to accompany our clients to local sawmills in Southern California to help them select the perfect wood for their project.
Don’t worry if you don’t know much about the different types of wood used in custom furniture building. We are here to help you make the perfect selection!

Bases and Tops for Solid Wood End Tables and Side Tables
One of the first things you will need to decide on when we start the design process for your custom end tables or side tables is what type of base you want and the shape of the top.
While many side tables have square or rectangular tops and four legs for a base, there’s no reason why your tables have to look like this. After all, that’s the beauty of having custom pieces built! Your end tables can have a round or oval top and a pedestal base. They could have an organic, live-edge top and a three-legged base. They could even be made from a solid tree stump, like our Haven Side Table.
Styles of End Tables and Side Tables
Here at Smith Farms, we don’t specialize in one specific style of custom furniture. Instead, we design our furniture based on each of our clients’ unique tastes and décor styles. We appreciate many different styles of furniture—from rustic to traditional to modern to minimalist.
Take a look at our portfolio of completed furniture projects, and you’ll see that we aren’t limited to a certain style of furniture. We encourage our clients to come to us with their ideas and their unique points of view. We’ll take those and turn them into custom furniture pieces that will complement their home’s style.
Completely Custom Solid Wood End Tables and Side Tables
Everything we do at Smith Farms is completely custom! We’re not a manufacturer of furniture, but a designer and builder of unique pieces that are made specifically for our clients.
People often come to us because they can’t find exactly what they’re looking for in furniture stores, or even online. They might find something close, but it will be the wrong size for their space or won’t have the types of details they’re looking for. When you work with a custom furniture maker like Smith Farms, you don’t have to compromise on any of the details. Your tables can be made to your exact specifications.
