My in-laws only buy Amish furniture. At first I was shocked by the prices but I totally get it now. We only have an Amish coffee and side table so far but there is much more in our future. It’s beautifully made. We have 2 little kids and they both still look amazing considering what they’ve been through.

I wanted a really great TV tray and not the cheap stuff at big box stores either because I use mine a lot. I ended up ordering one from an Amish company in Ohio that cost more to ship it to me in CA than the price of the tray itself. Totally worth it IMHO

If you’re in the LA area you should check out The Barn!

my dad builds furniture as a hobby. He's built us some really amazing stuff. But hes not interested in even trying to sell the stuff because he'd have to try to sell it for so much not many people would want to pay. My coffee table he built would probably cost $3000.
