We were starting our new kitchen journey when we came across Long Lane Furniture at the home & outdoor living show at Grand Park in Westfield IN. (They will also be back at Grand Park Feb 7-9 2020). The cabinets they had on display were beautiful, and I thought that they would be really pricey, but we went ahead and got a quote from them. After shopping around, they came in thousands less the box stores like Home Depot, and the cost of our new cabinets was even far less than the cabinet door makerover company by around $4000.00.
The experience has been nothing less than impressive as they walked my wife through what she wanted in the cabinets and focused less about how much she wanted to spend. We have attached photos starting with the pile of wood that would soon be the making of our new cabinets. From the making of the door panels, the frame and the large piece for the center island. I will update this post as the process moves into the install, then the...
Read moreLong Lane Furniture and Fairview Woodworking (the owners are brothers and are located 1/4 mile from each other) are our "Goto" when it comes to furniture. We used to live in SW Michigan so it was an easy trip to drive there, pickup some furniture, and head back in the same day.

For our new home we had Fairview Woodworking build us a custom gray elm island and stools for our kitchen. We bought a grey elm dining room table and chairs here also. We bought a new dark stained oak bedroom set for our master bedroom from Long Lane. All of our furniture is beautiful and meant to...
Read moreWe just bought a custom bedroom set from here...it turned out AMAZING. The people there are very easy to work with, and they even took some OFF the price for using less wood for one of the items we wanted altered a bit. We are very happy with the quality, and it was thousands cheaper than the Amish-made furniture store stuff. They only sell what they make, so it is very reasonable priced (no overhead costs!).
Everything is real wood, and you choose the wood you would like it made with, as well as the stain/finish color and the hardware. They have several different designs for bedroom sets, kitchens, and offices, and the "brother shop" on the same lane (Irvin's Millwork) has lots of nice quality dining sets, benches, tables, and china cabinets. This place, off the beaten path, is truly worth checking into if you are looking for quality real wood furniture at an...
