The renovation of my new home, which took four months, is finally complete! I drew the design plans myself, and DaWangYe Solid Wood Customization handled everything from creating the renderings and selecting materials to installation. The blogger personally confirmed: "A major brand specializing in professional boards provides greater assurance."
Today we're introducing @一只芋圆仔, a Xiaohongshu blogger who's a big fan of solid wood custom furniture. She's shared her personal renovation experience and prepared 7 tips to help you avoid common pitfalls when getting custom furniture for your whole house.

From design to implementation, this blogger summarizes 7 pitfalls to avoid – bookmark them now!
1. Insist on making a door that reaches the ceiling, with gaps not exceeding 1 cm, so that it looks grand and airy, and is completely sealed to prevent dust from settling in;
2. Insist on using the projected area for calculations of areas with many cabinets, and using the area of removed panels for calculations of areas with many wall panels or openwork.
3. Before selecting a color, always get a small sample and compare it with your existing latex paint, doors, flooring, etc., to avoid a messy color scheme;
4. Insist on using cabinet panels that are at least 18mm thick. The thickness of the panels determines the load-bearing capacity of the cabinet; if they are too thin, they are prone to deformation over time.
5. Insist that the cabinet bodies of kitchen cabinets and bathroom vanities are made of solid multi-layer wood, which has good moisture resistance, and the cabinet doors can be made of OSB, which is not easy to deform;
6. Insist on choosing high-grade environmentally friendly boards. National standard ENF grade boards ensure quality and provide peace of mind.
7. Insist on choosing reputable brand-name boards and whole-house customization suppliers, and avoid outsourcing to prevent receiving products that do not match the specifications.
# Wardrobe
The wardrobe doors are made of PET panels with a matte finish. This ivory white color is perfect for contrasting with a minimalist wood style. It feels smooth and delicate to the touch, doesn't leave fingerprints, and is not easy to attract oil or dust, making it very easy to clean.
The core material of the PET cabinet door panel uses solid wood TT structure substrate, with a board thickness of 22mm, which is thickened and reinforced, giving people a diamond-like sense of solidity.
Made of high-quality materials, the cabinet door straightener saves bloggers a lot of money. There is no need to worry about deformation when using a door that reaches the top, and it is not afraid of moisture, graffiti, or scratches.
# Cabinets
An open kitchen can alleviate the cramped feeling of small spaces. The cabinet body is made of ENF-grade solid wood multi-layer board, which is essential in southern regions during the rainy season to prevent moisture imbalance that could cause furniture to warp and crack. The core of the board is made from eucalyptus wood from trees of optimal age, using Grade A materials with stable moisture content, making it more environmentally friendly and durable.
The multi-layer solid wood furniture boards use green, additive-free ENF-grade environmentally friendly adhesive, which not only has strong bonding strength, but is also waterproof, insect-proof, and odorless, even emitting a slight fragrance of natural wood. From order fulfillment to installation, solid wood customization is handled in one stop, and the blogger reports that the whole process is very worry-free.
# Balcony cabinet
As a semi-outdoor space, the balcony affects the external view of the home. By installing balcony cabinets, this vertical space can be better utilized, extending the home's storage and organization functions while bringing a unique taste and experience to life.
Since the balcony cabinet is closest to the outdoors, the blogger used solid wood TT door panels and solid wood multi-layer furniture boards as materials. The base material has excellent stability, and the high-quality PET furniture surface has stronger moisture resistance and aging resistance, easily coping with environmental factors such as sunlight and air humidity, resulting in better and longer-lasting performance.
