The Furniture Lady

The Furniture Lady I'm all about giving old but beautiful pieces of furniture a new lease of life and to give you a rea Hi I'm Mel , the furniture lady from Stafford. # # #

I just love to turn furniture that would once of been hidden, covered up or even thrown out a new lease of life and change it into a stunning bespoke piece. I pride myself in what i do to these old but still stunning pieces before they go to there new homes. I believe The Devil is in the detail so preparation is the key. All the furniture that we hand paint is firstly stripped and sanded back, all

fixtures ( handles hinges etc ) removed and primed. We then paint in a colour of your choosing from the Farrow & Ball and Laura Ashley eggshell range. The service I offer is not only to breath new life into pieces that I've sourced but to also give your own furniture a new lease of life. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any request or questions .
