FURNITURE RESTORATION

Have you inherited a sentimental piece of furniture from a relative or have a non-sentimental, high-quality antique or vintage piece of furniture that needs some TLC?

I offer a range of services that can bring your treasured pieces back to life including:

  • REPAIRING – From minor dents and gouges to minor structural repairs, I can turn back the clock by repairing your wood furniture.
  • STRIPPING – Is your furniture hidden under layers of old paint or varnish? I can bring back its natural beauty by stripping it down and refinishing it (if needed).
  • REFINISHING – This comprehensive service goes beyond simply fixing furniture; it’s about breathing new life into your cherished heirlooms. Each piece undergoes a meticulous restoration process, ensuring its structural integrity and lasting beauty.
  • RESTORATION – This comprehensive service restores a piece of furniture to the best condition possible. I don’t just restore furniture, I bring heirlooms back to life. Every piece receives the care it deserves, ensuring your cherished possessions are preserved for generations.
  • MODERNISATION – I take pride in transforming vintage and antique furniture into stunning pieces that complement modern and contemporary aesthetics. My approach respects the heritage of each piece, whether it’s highlighting the original wood grain with a subtle stain or replacing dated hardware with sleek, modern alternatives. The result? A unique conversation starter that seamlessly blends the charm of the past with the clean lines of today.

FURNITURE RESTYLING

Do you have a piece of furniture that no longer fits with your decor style? Do you want to modernise your furniture? I can work with you to re-imagine a piece of furniture and restyle it using a variety of techniques, including:

I offer a range of services that can bring your treasured pieces back to life including:

  • PAINT – I can achieve a variety of stunning effects, from textured finishes and blended colours to captivating faux metallic looks. With the right paint and technique, your vision becomes a reality.
  • DECOUPAGE – Applying decorative wallpaper, fabric, or tissue to furniture surfaces (e.g., drawer fronts, doors). The design is then sealed with multiple coats of varnish for lasting protection
  • METAL LEAF – Elevate your furniture with the brilliance of gold, silver, or coloured leaf. Highlight specific details or create a dramatic statement by covering larger areas. For a touch of understated elegance, metallic gilding wax adds a subtle shimmer to accentuate details.
  • STENCILLING – Add captivating details or create stunning repeating patterns across large areas with my furniture stencilling service. From a single, statement-making design to intricate all-over patterns, stencils offer endless possibilities. For an extra touch, consider embossed stencils that create a beautiful 3D effect
  • TRANSFERS – Furniture transfers offer a stunning alternative to wallpaper, fabric or tissue decoupage. Single images can be strategically placed, or multiple images layered and grouped together to create an impactful image to transform your painted furniture into a unique work of art
