Dressing Table, Stool

Kelly contacted me as she wanted to commission a dressing table and stool for her bedroom.

“…Brenda was amazing from the very first communication. She listened to what I wanted, strive to understand my style and the look I was going for and provided so many inspiring ideas, she also didn’t mind when I said I wasn’t sure about the options and provided fabulous alternatives. Communication was fantastic throughout and her and her partner went above and beyond to deliver us our dresser. I couldn’t recommend her service more highly and will definitely be commissioning some more pieces in the future…”

CREATING THE DESIGN

Having spoken to Kelly as part of our initial consultation, I knew she wanted the furniture to be a deep green-turquoise colour with a bright yellow or orange wallpaper. Armed with her vision, I created a mood board incorporating the various design elements we had discussed and a variety of wallpaper options.

The wallpaper that did catch Kelly’s eye was the exotic Muck n Brass Chimiracle Mustard paper, and as this has a fabric option as well, we were able to upholster the stool with the same design!

THE TRANSFORMATION

This dressing table has a beautiful wood grain on the top that once restored, and combined with the eye-catching wallpaper and vibrant paint colour, created an absolute head-turner of a dressing table!
