Woodworking is my passion. In 2011 I started it as a hobby and absolutely fell in love. Inspired by the craftsman style of the early 1900s, I began making frames, small pieces of furniture, and kitchen cabinets for my own home. Already a collector of antique furniture from the same period, I had an appreciation for the craftsmanship that went into each piece. In 2021 I took the leap to follow my dream and pursue woodworking full time. As my experience has grown so has my appreciation for other styles. I particularly enjoy working with old growth reclaimed lumber...wood that has a story. While I like the fact that I'm able to save something from going to the landfill, I love that the story of where the wood came from will live on in the pieces I create. My goal is to make pieces that last well beyond a lifetime in a timeless style that fit with almost any decor.
"Bungalow Woodshop exceeded expectation. We were looking for a simple shelving unit for our basement and Timâ s creativity expanded our thinking without expanding our budget. Heâ s as thoughtful and courteous as he is meticulous. We asked him to build a custom pool cue stand as well and he took our idea and made a very cool piece of art. He shared renderings. We talked about it. He always listened to the feedback and was awesome through the process. Highly recommend and endorse. Canâ t wait to bring in on our next project!"

I am a one-man shop trying to put together beautiful and useful works of art with wood so that someone might enjoy them in their home.
"STL Woodworking did a stellar job with my special order for a one-of-a-kind river wood table. I described what I had in mind in terms of wood, colors, and size, and the owner (Greg) crafted the most beautiful table made out of a beautiful piece of macacauba wood and paired with a gorgeous epoxy color and a perfect set of black metal table legs. Greg completed the project on schedule and delivered the piece himself. The table is stunning, so I rearranged my furniture to make it a centerpiece in my sitting area, and I use it daily as my desk working from home. It is truly a piece of functional art. I am so glad I went with STL Woodworking for this project."

High-quality furniture-grade wood will give you the best performance. Softer woods (like pine) and particle boards like MDF can sag under the weight of heavy books. Ideally, your shelves should hold 20 to 40 pounds per foot, so opt for scratch-resistant hardwood plywood or solid wood. Popular options include mahogany, cherry, maple, oak, walnut, and birch.
Built-ins look best when they feel like part of the room, so many homeowners run them floor to ceiling and stop at a natural break such as a doorway. Corner or floating units are smart options for tight spaces. Prefabricated shelves typically run 24–48 inches wide, 10–12 inches deep, and 5–6 feet tall; use those ranges as a quick sizing guide.
The installation time for built-in bookshelves depends on the complexity of the design, the size of the shelves, and the level of customization. A contractor can install a simple prefabricated unit in a few hours, while an elaborate custom unit could take up to a week. Installing add-ons like lighting could also extend the installation process.
For optimal storage efficiency and aesthetics, built-in bookshelves typically feature a shelf depth of 10 to 12 inches. This depth strikes a balance between providing ample space for books and decor while maintaining a sleek, unobtrusive look in your room.
