Our Work

Here's a selection of some previous work. Have a look for inspiration and get in touch if you'd like to commission me to refinish something for you.

Art deco dressing table with mirror.  Upcycled vintage dresser with geometric design in green and gold

Art deco dressing table with mirror

This was my first go at creating a geometric design using masking tape.

This walnut veneer dressing table with mirror was fully stripped (old varnish removed with a chemical solution); it then had a geometric design created in green and metallic gold. The whole piece was then top-coated for durability and to bring out the walnut veneer grain.

All my pieces are refurbished by hand.

Grey chest of drawers with white geometric design

This vintage chest of drawers was also stripped and then painted in grey (soapstone colour by Fusion Mineral Paint). I then created, by hand, this geometric design using masking tape. Top coated for added durability.

New knobs fitted, original casters cleaned.

Blue cupboard with decoupage

This must be one of my favourite transformations! The old cupboard was very 'tired' and needed a ton of work; the top needed a lot of sanding, the inside partitions were removed (presumably it may have been used a a musical cabinet before to store records?); the insides of the drawers were tired too. 

Overall, though, it was such a sturdy oak piece of furniture and it just proves that good workmanship truly does stand the test of time.

As usual, all old varnish was fully removed and the whole cupboard (yes, inside and out) was painted in midnight blue by Fusion Mineral Paint. The sides and insides of drawers were then decoupaged with this leaf pattern wallpaper to add some interest.
