American Estates A Custom Furniture Business | The Origin Story
I recently had the opportunity to sit down with Jesse, the owner and man behind @AmericanEstatesNWA Furniture. They are located in historic Rogers, Arkansas and are known for their quality custom made furniture. Jesse started making furniture when he was a teenager and like many of us he started out with very little tools and work for several years building furniture for friends and family as a side hustle. Jesse discusses his origin and how he made a successful full time business doing what he loves. If you are just getting started in woodworking or looking to take your woodworking business to the next level Jesse has amazing advice to share.
