How it worksA clear process from first idea to finished piece.
Custom work should feel straightforward and collaborative. We’ll guide you through every step, from the first conversation to a piece you’ll be proud to live with for years to come.
01
We’ll discuss your space, goals, style, budget range, and timing. Whether it’s a coffee table, dining table, or a full catio project, we’ll talk through what you’re envisioning and explore the possibilities together.
Start the Conversation
02
We develop the concept, dimensions, materials, finish, and key details, so you know exactly what is being built. You’ll receive inspiration, samples as needed, and guidance throughout the design process.
Design & Direction
03
Once the design is refined, we’ll provide a clear scope and pricing. Approved projects reserve a production slot with a deposit, and we’ll confirm the timeline and next steps.
Proposal & Deposit

Your piece is handcrafted in our Ames shop using quality materials and time-honored construction techniques. We’ll share updates during the build so you can see your project taking shape.

05
We provide final delivery and installation where needed, followed by a full fit and function check. We’ll also share care guidance so your piece looks great for years to come.
Delivery/Installation
Catio projects may also include an on-site measurement, permit, or historic review (where applicable), and on-site construction. We’ll help navigate the details so you can enjoy a safe, beautiful space for your cats, and peace of mind.
