How I Built a Booming Custom Furniture Business Online
Posted On YouTube On December 31, 2020 By Chagrin Valley Custom Furniture [ChagrinValleyCustomFurniture.com]

This video shows you how Sheldon Myeroff turned his custom furniture making hobby into a profitable international custom furniture making company – all after retirement! Success came primarily from specialization with a focus on designing, building and selling custom-made river (epoxy) tables. A “river table” is two pieces of natural wood with a river of epoxy resin flowing down the middle. That’s become 80% of his furniture making business.

Sheldon started Chagrin Valley Custom Furniture from his home in 2013, but only became serious about growing the company after moving into a large high-end furniture manufacturing facility in 2017. CVCF has become a manufacturer of high quality, handcrafted, custom designed furniture, specializing in custom live edge epoxy tables and desks for sale online to individuals and businesses throughout the continental United States and Canada. Sheldon’s innovative ideas for furniture and his furniture business have become a hallmark of his success.

The audio for this video is comprised of extracts from Andy Levine’s Second Act Stories podcast on December 7, 2020, and titled “Goodbye Executive Recruiting…Hello Furniture Marking”. Andy interviewed Sheldon and CVCF VP of Operations Zach Schulte for this podcast – which Adam wrote and voiced. The full podcast is only 20 minutes long and we hope you’ll give it a listen. You can find it at https://www.secondactstories.org.

The Chagrin Valley process is different from other custom furniture makers (builders) because we only make true custom furniture. That means you don’t go online to order and pay at the start of the process. With CVCF, you are part of the custom furniture-making process every step of the way as together we create a completely new, one-of-a-kind piece of epoxy resin furniture, specific to your unique needs and desires. You give us your design idea, choose the epoxy color, wood slab, make tweaks in the design, all remotely through video technology. You can even have an emblem or your company logo machined into the wood and filled with epoxy, or embed items in the epoxy such as school and college logos, rocks, crystals, and other sentimental memorabilia.

We harvest our wood sustainably, often under the direction of the U.S. Forest Service. This ensures the long term health of the forest. We spend up to 2 years removing moisture from the logs before starting to work with them. This helps prevent warping and cracking of the wood. Our 6,000 sq. ft. workshop is fully equipped to handle all the challenges of making a beautiful epoxy resin river table, which includes a temperature controlled, clean spray room for a smoother, scratch-resistant coat. We also offer a large variety of metal and wood legs, plus you can design your own legs if you wish.

Our furnishings include custom epoxy resin river tables, epoxy resin river beds and headboards, epoxy resin desks, epoxy resin wall art, rustic to modern farmhouse tables, barn doors, benches, countertops, shelves and so much more. Prices for our conference tables are based on such factors as size, wood species, live edge/not live edge, conference table components, epoxy resin, engraved company names, engraved logos, embedded objects in epoxy resin rivers, etc. Prices for our solid wood and live edge conference tables start at about $4,500, average about $9,000, and top off at about $18,000. Prices for conference tables with epoxy resin rivers and epoxy-filled CNC logos or scenes will cost more.

For a quote on handcrafting your epoxy resin river furniture design and shipping it to your home or place of business anywhere in the USA, call Sheldon Myeroff at 440-591-551, scan or take a photo of your design and text it to us at 440-591-5511, or email to shel@chagrinvalleycustomfurniture.com.

    Features of high quality custom furniture often showcase thick live edge wood table tops and natural edge countertops.

    Order The Book The rustic furniture design drawings you submit to CVCF can be technical drawings, simple crude sketches or they can be engineering drawings with reference dimensions.

    Rustic furniture made in the USA has a long and interesting history. In the mid 1800’s, a clamor for rustic furniture was created by magnificent Adirondack country retreats, or “camps” – the summer escapes for wealthy families such as the Vanderbilts, Morgans, and Roosevelts.

    Along with Chagrin Valley Custom Furniture, a company based in Wisconsin, called the La Lune Collection is also a leading manufacturer of high end rustic furniture. Their firm produces very fine handcrafted rustic furniture including sofas, chairs, cabinets, beds and tables. Their rustic furniture is found in cabins, homes, lodges, resorts, hotels and restaurants.

    The term “rusticating” means to live or go to live in the country; or to make something rustic or rural in style. Rusticating became a popular expression in the mid to late eighteen-hundreds. Well-heeled city folks developed elaborate country retreats and cabins (many were called “camps”) and “rusticated” during the summer. Most of us have heard about the “camps” built by the Vanderbilts, Morgans and others during this time. Many of these “rustic homes” became America’s castles.

    Books To Help You Design Your Own Rustic Furniture

    Fifties Furniture by Paul Mccobb: Directional DesignsDesign Your Own Mid-Century Modern Furniture For CVCF To Custom Build And Assemble

    If you are obsessed with the Mid-Century Modern look so popular in the mid decades of 20th century, you can draw your furniture plans and submit your Mid-Century Modern furniture design to CVCF for a free consultation and price quote.  You can design your Mid-Century Modern furniture and CVCF can build and assemble your retro furniture for you if you live in the continental United States.

    Midcentury furniture design has a firm grasp on the American consciousness.  If your taste in furniture veers away from elaborate and formal traditional furniture or rustic furniture, Mid-Century Modern furniture is a style you may enjoy.

    If you like to design furniture that evokes another era, such as the 1950s, you should read Cara Greenberg’s book titled “Mid-century Modern: Furniture of the 1950’s“. CVCF specializes in building simple and functional office furniture, living room furniture, bedroom furniture and dining room furniture that integrates nature’s beauty.

    If you want to design a piece of “furniture candy” or a throwback style chair that incorporates clean sculptural lines, CVCF can custom build it for your family or company.  CVCF can handcraft a casual yet elegant bench to the exact design requirements you specify.

    Our furniture makers often handcraft Mid-Century Modern furniture by combining only two materials, such as splayed metal furniture legs and wood table tops for homes and commercial spaces.  Our woodworkers are experts at using natural wood finishes and stains because our company also specializes in refinishing wood furniture.

    Typical materials that we use to custom build Mid-Century Modern furniture include teak, stainless steel and glass. You can design a charismatic Mid-Century Modern table that features an epoxy resin river.

    If you place an emphasis on form and function in your furniture design plans, you can visit Etsy to get ideas for a Mid-Century Modern style sofa, sideboard, keyboard stand, table, dresser, lounge chair, cabinet or bed.  If you want a design idea for a Mid-Century Modern chair, check out the Le Corbusier LC4 Chaise or the Barcelona Chair designed by Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe, which are both now displayed at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.

    If you think that your vintage furniture design should complement your architectural space, not compete with it, then Mid-Century Modern furniture may be the way to go. The furniture makers at CVCF truly enjoy building well designed furniture that has a timeless look that stands the test of time.

    Custom Farmhouse Dining Table Sold Locally [Industrial Base]

    In this video, furniture maker Shel Myeroff, owner of Chagrin Valley Custom Furniture, talks with local customers Matt and Molly from Chagrin Falls, Ohio about the high quality made-to-order extendable farmhouse dining room table that CVCF custom built for them.

    After an initial furniture design consultation, CVCF furniture builders set off to handcraft the rustic, yet modern and simple, farmhouse dining table from 100-year-old reclaimed oak wood beams, sustainably sourced from a barn in Southern Ohio.

    The expert CVCF craftsmen at the Cleveland, Ohio workshop, completely customized the farmhouse dining table by adding a sturdy and durable industrial style metal (steel) base. This video shows all the attention to detail, including the welds and the two pullout inserts. The comfortable farmhouse dining table is 128 inches long when fully extended. Now Matt and Molly are living happily ever after with their new beautiful, and very unique, solid wood farmhouse dining table.

    Listen to the couple talk about the exceptional customer service they received from CVCF. Find out how they got helpful design ideas from Shel for their custom table. Get their thoughts on the remarkable workmanship provided by CVCF craftspeople.

    Because pine is inexpensive, it is frequently used by America artisans to make farmhouse tables (also know as a farm table or harvest table) tops. For the farmhouse table shown in this video, CVCF used more expensive oak barn beams because they will last for generations (they already lasted over 100 years in a barn) and because the cut beams display a more authentic style and absorb wood stains more effectively.

    The country living inspired design style of the charming contemporary farmhouse dining table shown in this video, combines clean sleek lines with a cozy and warm farmhouse feel. This homey style of farmhouse furniture and décor certainly has not gone out of style.

    Popular farmhouse style furniture made by CVCF typically incorporates versatile traditional aesthetics and industrial components (legs and bases) to convey a fresher character and a more relaxing appeal than rustic furniture and décor.

    Truly custom farmhouse furniture and farmhouse dining tables are handcrafted by CVCF in any design style that the client wants. Exact sizes, dimensions, shapes and wood species are specified by the customers. CVCF ships custom built farmhouse tables to homes, restaurants and businesses in all 50 states.

    Buy Real Authentic Custom Furniture Locally Near You Or Online At CVCF

    CVCF builds custom furniture for people that have an interior design concept they want to bring to life. While furniture retailers claim they sell furniture that will make this happen, we suggest that you have 100% real and authentic custom furniture custom built for you.

    If you design your own furniture, our craftsman will incorporate the colors, textures, woods, drawers, panels, metals, fabrics, shelves, textures and shapes you desire for your dining table, wardrobe, bed, sofa or chair.  At the end of the day, when a customer designs their own furniture they should get exactly what they want – not furniture in stock that a furniture retailer is trying to sell.

    Designing your own furniture is more than simply taking measurements so that the piece of furniture or suite of furniture will fit into the space you have available in your abode.  Learn more about drawing your furniture design here.  Designing your own furniture extends beyond the size, shape, color and upholstery. You can learn how to design furniture by using the MIT OpenCourseWare available online.

    When you design your own truly custom furniture, you do more than choose from a wide selection of materials, woods, finishes, leather, fabrics and hardware.  If you are really serious about designing your own furniture, you can apply online for the SCAD furniture design program.  If you simply want to order customizable furniture that is in stock from a company that will ship it in a few weeks, click here.

    Designing your own furniture is completely different than going online to customize chairs, tables, sofas and beds that are already stocked in a warehouse in the USA.  If you admire the perfection and quality of your furniture design and want your design published and promoted, you can submit your concept stage or realized furniture design to the A’ Furniture, Homeware and Decor Items Design Competition.

    If you want to download free furniture plans, click here or here.  Learn how crowdfunded furniture is assisting furniture designers develop new products that are sold on Made.com.

    You can design your own couch, table, bed, desk or chair and then send us the design. Once we receive your design, we can provide you with a quote to handcraft your furniture and install it in your home, cabin, RV or business. To learn more about submitting your custom furniture design, click here.

    If you want to design your own couch or ottoman, CVCF can build the sofa perfectly to the exact dimensions you specify and our furniture makers will use all of your favorite materials.  If you are considering making your own patio, deck or outdoor furniture, you can sketch out a drawing, submit the drawing to CVCF and our fine furniture makers will custom build it and assemble it for you.  You are dreaming of your individual TV-Sideboard, wardrobe or individual cabinet?

    If you can visualize and specify the furniture size, furniture shape, species of wood, fabric and fasteners, CVCF can handcraft your furniture by hand in the USA.  When you design your own furniture you do more than select from a color swatch and choose a silhouette or fabric.  When you design your own furniture, you should be able to do more than take size measurements and go online to customize your order by choosing from in stock furniture styles, materials and fabrics.

    You should be able to specify every last detail and the exact dimensions, down to the inch.  Building your own furniture goes beyond going online to a furniture company’s website to select cushions, bases, arms and pillows for a couch. If you want to actually build your own furniture, CVCF can handcraft and assemble it for you.

    Some furniture manufacturers and retailers in the U.S. offer to create exactly the furniture you want. In realty, they don’t offer you unlimited options like CVCF does. These furniture websites offer you a choice of trim, finishes, fabrics, models, textiles, upholstery or leather, but they don’t actually build and assemble 100% custom furniture.

    You can use an online design studio website to explore hundreds of fabrics and finishes for a chair, but only CVCF will make the chair to your exact design requirements. While you can’t exactly build your own furniture online, you can use software on the web such as Sketchup to design the furniture that the carpenters and woodworkers at CVCF will build for you.

    You can find decent and highly qualified woodworkers who sell made-to-order furniture on CustomMade.com but most of these merchants are offering made-to-order products which are normally size-adjusted replicas of furniture they have already made. Additionally, these vendors normally will not provide assembly services throughout the USA.

    Most local and regional furniture makers showcased on furniture maker directories would be a bit surprised if you submitted your furniture design to them.  Some furniture companies suggest that you can build your own sectional sofa, but they don’t mean that you can actually design it yourself and that they will handcraft it from scratch and assemble it for you in your home or business. CVCF can make the furniture you design.  If you want help designing wood furniture you can read tutorials here.

    Chagrin Valley Custom Furniture sells and manufacturers one-of-a-kind handcrafted furniture and other wood projects to customers throughout the USA.  You can order handmade solid wood living room furniture, kitchen and dining furniture, accent furniture, office furniture and bedroom furniture by calling 440-591-5511 or you can request a quote.

    Popular online retailers of high-quality furniture misrepresent their furniture as custom because they don’t actually manufacture the sofa, chair, table or bed to match your precise design requirements.  They allow you to mix and match in order to “make it yours“, but they will not manufacture the furniture just the way you designed it.

    Online retailers of custom furniture may let you choose from a selection of leather colors, fabrics, wood, wood stain, size, leg options or orientation, but they don’t have furniture makers that will collaborate with you to build your furniture from the ground up.

    Yes, you can order a custom sized modern sofa online, but that is not the same as designing your own furniture, submitting your furniture design to CVCF and then seeing the exact furniture you envisioned assembled in your home.

    We design and build custom furniture hand-in-hand with you and build it to your exact home or office specifications.  We passionately build custom mudroom cabinets and benches, and entry furniture, Mid-Century Modern furniture, patio furniture, bathroom furniture, bar furniture and bar tops, kid’s furniture, game room furniture, pet furniture, unfinished furniture, home decor, sectionals, sofas, chairs, ottomans and benches in our manufacturing facility in Cleveland, Ohio.

    You can buy space-saving storage solutions and bookcases online by choosing from a few different heights and wood types, but only CVCF allows you to submit your modern custom furniture design in order to have the furniture made the way you want.  Have rustic and modern furniture custom built for you in Cleveland, Ohio.  We ship custom built deck furniture, solid wood table tops, outdoor furniture, live edge bar tops and wood slab countertops to customers all across the country.

    Buying Custom Furniture Can Be Easier Than You Think – 9 Companies Making Made-To-Order More Accessible

    How To Shop On Etsy For Custom Furniture – Small Businesses on Etsy Are Making Custom Furniture More Attainable

    You don’t need to spend your life savings on a nice set of chairs. You know you’ve reached a certain point in your adult life when you’re ready to graduate from the pieces you accumulated for your dorm room to more long-term furniture options like an investment piece from West Elm. But did you ever consider going bespoke? No, we’re not talking about a $20,000 George Nakashima dining table—but rather a whole subset of smaller, boutique craftsmen who make the big-box options look like they’re giving you very little bang for your considerable buck.

    Getting Comfortable With Furniture Customization

    A growing number of e-commerce companies are offering personal choices at affordable prices. Customization has always been part of home furnishings. Urged on by their clients, interior designers seek out luxurious fabrics and collaborate with workshops to design special pieces. And even mass-market items like Crate & Barrel sofas come with size, finish and upholstery options. But in almost all situations, the more personalized the piece, the more you will have to pay, and the waiting time for made-to-order is months. It doesn’t have to be that way. A new wave of e-commerce furniture companies, including Inside Weather, The Inside, Interior Define and Benchmade Modern, are promoting speedy customization for all. To buy a sofa in Inside Weather’s online store, shoppers choose among a dozen arm styles, including fat upholstered perches and grooved timber slabs; upholstery options like woven linen-and-polyester fabrics and vegan leathers; and details like tufting and stitching.

    Custom Furniture Online: Made By You Making It Easy & Green

What’s more, she’s doing it in a sustainable way, right here in Australia, using real timber. “If the timber furniture industry was restaurants, we’d be the really good cafe between fast food and fine dining; basically flatpack furniture that looks high end, but without the price tag, and everything is customisable online!” Read more here.
