Hello Autumn : )

Hello!!

I can't believe its September were has this year went!!! Autumn is here Yeah!! this is my favourite season with the best stuff coming up Halloween, Guy Fawkes and my wedding anniversary : ) 

So I've started working on some of my own pieces of furniture with some to be added to my etsy shop over next few weeks, I have started with this lovely retro 50's style chair, I've picked the fabric for this pieces (actually picked months ago, can't help myself) So!! I chose orange woolen fabric from Bute but ironically its called pumpkin so picked the perfect season for it.

I've also just added our little bespoke footstools to the etsy shop yeah!!! you can click on the shop here on the website. Each one is different they can also be customised to suit your colour and interior taste. I'm drawn to bright colours and funky fabrics so I always like to clash colours. What would you go for?

As its Glasgow, that we live in you can't predict the weather its sunny with rain with a mixture of tropical storms, hoping over the next two weeks weather permitting that I can get down to our storage container, to up-dated the website stock page of all the new vintage pieces that we have got. If you are after something in particular or have an item of furniture that you would like to talk about or maybe looking for a piece to have a bit of a makeover, you can contact me anytime.

Busy, busy, busy!!!

Hello folks,

Its been a bit busy for me (not complaining) : )

This week i got the keys, and moved into a new workshop aaaahhhh!!! excited                              still got a bit sort out and move about so should be settled in for Saturday.

Got two jobs to start this week for two lovely customers; the first is four country style dining chairs can't wait to show you what these will look like got some amazing bright colours for these. The second is a vintage dining table that's in need of some TLC and a new colour so this will be stripped back.

The cocktail chair is coming along nicely, finished the piping and buttons... just to finish applying the fabric, shes going to be a little cracker.

I picked up some more stock last week a little retro chest of drawers and a stunning vinyl to go with it, also a vintage dressing table got lots of ideas for this piece stay tuned for that.

Catch up!!

Hello I'm back!! :)

Missed last weeks blog entry but back this week with more jobs completed and new ones starting.

I recently finished a couch repair for a lovely customer in the west end, the couch was a modern style with the inside frame crumbling causing the metal foot to fall off. This involved building a small frame for inside to create strength to allow the foot to be re-attached, finished off with new bottom cloth.

I also completed the dining table to go with the six dining chairs from the previous week. This extending table needed to be colour matched, for this the full table was scraped back and stained to blend in with the colour already on the legs. The table was then finished off with a wax oil in clear satin.

I've started working on two of my own pieces - The retro cocktail chair & A two seater mid century Parker knoll got amazing fabrics for these pieces - stay tuned for them they will be available to buy. (Hoping to get a shop on the website this week)

Also got some lovely new stock coming cant wait to show you. :)
