I collected some beautiful teak chairs this morning that are in the workshop for a little tlc. Wobbly joints, flat seats and tired upholstery.

Mid-century dining chairs are somewhat a favourite of ours and well worth the restoration investment when compared to the durability and comfort of many of the modern equivalents.

Do you remember the little antique children's chairs from way back? Well they are completely unrecognisable!

Watch this space for the results.

Cookin' up some beautiful fabrics to bring a bit of soul back into your furniture. Here just a few new projects in the diary...

Just a little colour wheel alternative to a flag to say whoever you are we all welcome you at Dream-tiques. I'm sure you all know this but perhaps a little reminder is good for those less confident.

I have a huge range of clients from all walks of life and I love getting to know you all and appreciate you.

I rarely discuss my sexuality (Le***an) because for me it doesn't define who I am, my quality of work and personality do!

Everyone is welcome in my workshop and getting to know you all makes my life richer.

Happy drizzly Saturday folks.

Happy Pride Month. Love is Love.

Another day another exciting project that's started amongst many.

I've been commissioned to restore this petit bentwood chair from my stock. It's polish has been stripped off and I need to finish sanding it whilst my client chooses a fabric. It's not going to be boring I can confirm that because I have already worked on a Halabala commission for her many years ago.

Watch this space!

More stock available for commissions on the website. www.dream-tiques.co.uk just choose your chair and drop me an email via the website [email protected] with your ideas and I'll cost it up before you commit.

Happy Wednesday Folks!

I've got a beautiful Ercol 2 seater sofa in stock just looking for you to inject some personality.

The wood has now had all the old polish removed and it's been sanded until beautifully smooth, ready to be finished to suit your style.

Get on touch for a total cost with your choice of fabrics and wood finish.

Remember the green trunk? Fully restored and repaired this old gal is ready to be used as a bedside table.

The four snickers bars are now transformed into elegant green velvet benches. Perfectly coordinated with the buildings colour scheme, subtle but strong top stitching and restored feet. Understated in order to not detract from the galleries art exhibitions.
