Leah Noell Design Co.

I'm Leah a decorative furniture painter, DIY enthusiast, home designer, creative entrepreneur, and lover of an aged piece of furniture with an even better story behind it. I began Leah Noell Design out of my passion for creative home design. I moved into my first house at a very young age with little room in the budget to decorate. I used my creative ability to create a beautiful home and continue to find new ways to decorate on a dime. My passion lies in finding and restoring dated furniture by transforming it into a signature piece you will utilize in your home or business. Growing up I experienced my parents and grandparents collecting antiques and refinishing each piece to accommodate their personal styles. My personal journey refinishing furniture began when my in-laws down-sized their home and called my husband to dispose of their dated six piece wood dining set by BURNING IT!!! Remembering all the good times we had sitting around that table, I quickly instructed him to deliver it to our garage. Then I called my dad over and together we transformed their dated piece into a farmhouse style treasure that my family continues to enjoy meals on every evening. When I started this venture, it became apparent that so many of us have sentimental furniture passed down to us that we store in our basements, garages, and attics because it does not match our home décor. I truly believe that the best way we can honor our past generations is to bring some life into that old table, cabinet, buffet, or whatever it is and update it to be loved in our homes every day. If you are in the Northwest Indiana/Chicago land area I would love to help you find a new finish to your generational pieces or give your décor you’ve grown tired of a new life. Let me help you discover a new statement piece for your home.
