What do you love most about your job?
It's all about combining my own personal passion for vintage and antique furniture with top quality customer service.
Reworking these beautiful pieces for today's homes allows me to be completely creative and I love the fact that each day starts and ends with me being totally fulfilled.
From seeking out the best raw pieces. to creating their new look, to being a complete fabricaholic, to welcoming new clients in and seeing them fall in love with something...that's why I do what I do, it's a great feeling.
I love the variety in my work and meeting so many different faces over the years, many of whom have become returning customers.
Working for yourself, you just can't beat it...I simply adore my job!!
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have always loved old furniture and appreciate the quality and design of such shapely vintage and antique pieces.
Whilst not to everyone's taste, beautiful pieces of the past can be reworked and upcycled in the hand painted and reupholstered French style of shabby chic, enabling them to become stunning contemporary features of homes today...
Why should our clients choose you?
My clients enjoy the attention to detail I devote to every piece, the quality of the paints and fabrics used and my perfectionist approach.
As well as having a constantly changing selection of finished pieces available and on display to purchase, clients can also commission their chosen pieces from my large selection of raw stock in storage to be prepared according to their own tastes and decor schemes.
Clients can also bring me their own treasures for me to work upon. I work strictly to appointment from 2pm daily, facilitating dedicated personal consultations, offering evening and weekend appointments too, to suit my clients' busy lifestyles...
