I've been really looking forward to showing you this stunning transformation that I completed in the height of this Summer for my lovely customer Laura.
This was one of those where the laminate was badly peeling..the usual areas around sink, ovens and washing machine. I stripped it all off in the end. Bare MDF with the right prep is a fantastic surface to paint so never despair if you think you're kitchen is too damaged for me to transform.
Laura got a fab joiner in to reconfigure a few cupboards and I sourced the stunning oak worktops for him to fit.
It was great to work with Laura to create such a classy finish with the stunning brass hardware and tap and a fab new sink.
I finished the units and doors in a custom mix of Fusion Mineral Paint Fusion Mineral Paint UK Ash and Homestead Blue to create this deep smoky blue.
Have a look at the before pics too...I hope you'll agree it's quite the transformation.
MY ORDER BOOK IS GETTING CRAZY AGAIN BUT I HAVE ONE SPACE LEFT FOR PRE-CHRISTMAS COMPLETION FOR A KITCHEN OR FURNITURE AND A COUPLE OF GAPS EARLY NEW YEAR.
Please as always share away and do get in touch if you'd like to discuss your very own custom transformation xx

Hey all....as promised I'm posting loads of new work. I'm going to work my way backwards posting all the projects I've done over the last few months....starting with this absolute beaut 💜
These are those impact transformations where my fab customer Jess decided to go the whole hog and have new worktops, appliances and tiles fitted alongside my complete cabinet and door transformation.
A first for me too using this gorgeous Fusion Mineral Paint colour Lavender Haze.....it definitely won't be the last 🩷💜🩷💜
As always, and it's been a while...I'd be so grateful if you could share this.
IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN TO OPEN THE BOOKS FOR NEW WORK 🎉🎉🎉
Have a fantastic evening and the weather isn't looking too bad for Bank Holiday Monday

Wow, I can't believe it's been so long since I posted work. I'm still very much in business and busy as always. Sadly lost my Dad in April so it's been a difficult time.
I've got over 20 projects including kitchens and furniture to show you so I'll stagger post them over the next few weeks 😁

Hey Guys, I've been a little quiet on here but certainly not in the studio. The usual fabulous frantic countdown to Christmas.
My lovely customers also had an incredible joiner in to fit new worktops, a breakfast bar and gorgeous flooring.
For the cabinets and doors I used Fusion Mineral Paint UK Sterling - the coolest neutral, this silver-grey crosses a number of design styles from traditional to contemporary to coastal. It's equal parts calm and refreshing.
Stunning new hardware was added to complete what I hope you'll agree is quite an incredible transformation 🥰 (before pic included)
Please do as always share away on your profiles and to family and friends x
