Well, I'm going to try to make this brief (because I wrote out a whole response and then lost everything). I use Gimp, essentially a free photoshop, to make my textures. The basic techniques are outlined in this video, and work for both gimp and photoshop.

In addition to this, particularly useful for woods, is noise, located under the filters tab. I use mostly HSV noise and saturation, and it adds a texture and color to the texture that is hard to get otherwise.

I also use a bit of colorizing when making textures similar to one I already made, generally from a grayscale image. If you need more information on this, or anything really, it isn't too hard to find with a little research.

Regarding your last question, I don't know what you mean by "Shire crafting table". I hope this response is helpful. Just remember that making textures takes patience, and rarely pans out on the first try. Often even when the texture looks good in gimp, it doesn't tile well in game. I went through 6 versions of my Shire Pine log texture before I was satisfied. Best luck in your texturing endeavors,
