A bookish makeover for a special family!

When my daughter’s friend asked me to refresh this arched beauty for her kids’ books, I knew exactly what she needed. It had the storage, but it was missing the soul.

Painted with Dixie Belle ‘Collard Greens,’ this gorgeous girl has been completely transformed by the paint. The deep, earthy green turned this tired girl into a goddess.

I swapped the dated hardware for these sleek copper pulls - it’s amazing how such a small change can elevate the whole look!

She’s officially finished, styled, and heading home soon to start her new life holding all the bedtime stories.

Look what just dropped into my workshop for a makeover - stay tuned for finished piece 😮‍💨

Proof that paint can fix anything! 🖌️

My friend asked me if I could take these units from basic dark grey to a clean, modern white! And how amazing do they look! The textured chevron pattern pops even more now, and the new black handles are the perfect finishing touch. Morale of the story - don't throw it out - transform it! 💪

When my client contacted me to ask if I would repaint her bedroom furniture I had no idea it would be as big a job. Everything was covered in thick lilac chalk paint and gold wax, which took forever to strip. But with sure determination I got there in the end. Swipe for the transformation of the year and tell me what you think.

It’s all been delivered safely back to my client today and I have to say myself it looks stunning.

No more commissions now until the New Year!

From Forgotten to Fabulous: My Upcycled Furniture Transformations

Welcome to my collection of furniture flips! This album showcases how a little vision, a lot of elbow grease, and the perfect finish can completely revive a piece. Witness the dramatic before and after as each project is given a fresh, stylish new purpose. Sustainable design has never looked so good!

From forgotten to fabulous! ✨ I absolutely loved working on this client commission, transforming this vintage shaker side table into a modern showstopper. Swipe to see the before! 👉

I started with a classic wooden piece, full of character but in need of a refresh. A fresh coat of cast iron gave it a sleek new look, and then I added a secret pop of personality with a stunning asian bamboo lining inside the drawers. It’s all about those little details!

New project alert! This classic Shaker occasional table is about to get a sophisticated, edgy new look.

I’ll be using the bold and beautiful Fusion Cast Iron paint (client choice), complemented by a bespoke lining inside the drawers. It's all about those high-end, hidden details!

Stay tuned - the Phoenix HQ magic is about to happen. 🛠️

There’s something so satisfying about giving a forgotten piece of furniture a brand new life - especially when it finds the perfect spot in a client’s home. This lovely little telephone table got a full makeover: a deep teal finish to modernize it, a fresh fabric seat for comfort, and a touch of brass to elevate its charm.

It now sits beautifully in my client’s hallway, complementing the black and white tiled floor and adding just the right pop of color and personality.

Upcycling isn’t just about saving furniture - it’s about creating pieces with stories, character and sustainability in mind.

Would you have kept the classic style or gone bold with color? Let me know in the comments! 👇
