Custom Table Before Christmas in Edmonton
Ordering Before Christmas? The Honest Custom Furniture Timeline for Edmonton Hosts
Hosting this Christmas and thinking about a new table? Let us be straight with you about what the calendar allows.
Every year, someone calls in the fall and says the same thing: we are hosting Christmas, and we want a new table. We love that. And we owe you an honest answer.
Our custom builds usually take roughly six to twelve weeks. An order placed in the third week of October lands between the end of November and early January. That means some projects can be ready before Christmas, and some cannot. It depends on the design, the wood, and the schedule.
What is realistic
A simpler design, a wood we can source quickly, and decisions made fast can sometimes fit before the holidays. We will tell you directly whether your project is one of them.
What probably is not
Large live edge tables, complex bases, and designs that need extra drying or finishing time are the least likely to be ready by Christmas. Rushing them is how you end up with a table that does not last.
We would rather tell you no than hand you a rushed table.
If the date will not work
You still have good options.
- Plan for the new year and have the table for the next gathering
- Keep your current table for this Christmas and order now for January
- Gift the plan: a consultation and a design, with the table to follow
Ask us at the consultation what we can offer for gifting before you promise anything to the person you are surprising.
How to speed up your own timeline
Measure the room, decide on the number of seats, and have a rough idea of the wood and finish before you call. The faster the decisions, the sooner the build can be scheduled.
A table that arrives a few weeks late and lasts thirty years is a better trade than one that arrives on time and does not.
Tell us your date. We will tell you the truth about it.
