The Process


I have created furniture to fit my life and home. Sometimes the vision or idea starts with a picture, sketch or a combination of space limitations and color pallets. If you like what you see from my gallery, we can make it in a variety of colors and finishes to meet your needs. If you have a vision you want to see come to life, we will work together to determine if, when and how that can happen. As we explore the creation process the following are areas for customization:

  • Dimensions (height, width, depth)
  • Wood selection
  • Stain
  • Finish
  • Hardware

Every piece of custom made furnishings from Stephanie Spice Designs will be made of hardwood and quality material. The result is longer, lasting products that are meant to be handed down from generation to generation.

I partner with a variety of builders in the Central Ohio area. Some are one man shops and others are large facilities. I work directly with the builders to create and determine every part of your furniture. If it can’t be done, we tell you. If we see ways to improve the piece, we will suggest it.

Some of the builders are not tech savvy, nor does their religion allow for the convenience of telephones and internet. This can slow down the quoting process but it does not temper the quality and craftsmanship you will love looking at and living with for many generations to come.


The quoting process can take up to 3 weeks. Typical build times range from 6-12 weeks depending on the type of furniture being built. Additionally, I work only with reputable shipping companies to ensure your custom designed furniture reaches your home in perfect condition.

The process for upholstery furniture is simple. You can customize the pieces through fabric, details such as nail heads, cushion size, cushion type and wood stain color. Lead time on the upholstery furniture is around 35 days and these items can be drop shipped to your home. There is a large selection of fabrics to choose from and can be seen at www.norwalkfurniture.com.
