Top Design Mistakes People Make When Buying Furniture

Buying furniture is exciting — but without planning, it’s easy to make mistakes. At True Grain, we help homeowners avoid the pitfalls of store-bought or poorly made furniture.

Common mistakes include:

-Buying pieces that don’t fit your space or scale.

-Choosing aesthetics over construction quality.

-Ignoring local craftsmanship in favour of cheap imports.

-Overlooking maintenance and material differences.

Our solution? Custom furniture built for your dimensions, your lifestyle, and your design preferences — crafted from solid Ontario hardwoods in our Hamilton workshop.

With True Grain, every project begins with function and ends with lasting beauty — the true mark of custom craftsmanship.
