Kristie
Look at that smile! 😄 This talented student completely transformed her piece today. She learned how to sand the timber back to fresh wood, painted the textured inserts in 'Natural Linen,' and installed hardware from our new collection. She’s heading home with paint on her knees and the skills to finish the rest of her cabinet! Well done! 🛠️✨
Jane
Fresh timber + Natural Linen = The perfect combo. ✨ Look at this transformation! After learning proper sanding techniques to get that light, raw wood look, this student added a coat of 'Natural Linen' to the inserts and finished it off with handles from our new collection. A stunning update, and she’s ready to tackle the rest of the project at home!
Katy
We love seeing students experiment with texture. 🖌️ This project features paintable stripe wallpaper brought to life with a fresh coat of color. A perfect example of how to add depth and personality to any wall without breaking the bank.
Demi-Lune Console Table
Meet one of our latest graduates, capturing the exact moment of 'Project Complete' bliss! She arrived at the workshop with a vision to modernize a classic demi-lune table. By combining a sleek, midnight-black finish on the body with a lovingly restored natural timber top, she created a stunning high-contrast piece that screams sophistication. With her paintbrush still in hand and a beaming smile, she proves that you don't need to be a professional to achieve showroom-quality results. This isn't just a table anymore; it's a conversation starter.
Children’s Table and Chair Set
Who says kids' furniture can't be sophisticated? This student did an amazing job achieving that coveted 'whitewashed' coastal look. By lightening the wood tone and applying a translucent finish, she turned a standard set into a breezy, Scandi-style treasure. It’s a perfect example of how to update timber without losing the natural beauty of the grain. Simply beautiful work!

Clara
This chest of drawers has been beautifully refinished. The top has been sanded with a tan wash applied and sealed for durability, perfectly matching the handles. The 'Moleskin' colour is a great natural shade. Showcasing our new range of handles, the 'U' shape wicker handles are available for $12.95 each. 'Classic Stripe' paintable wallpaper adds texture and interest. This piece is versatile and can be used as a nursery change table, hall table, bedroom furniture, or TV unit, as seen in the inspirational photos.
Katherine
A quick description of the project.
Sara
This solid timber console table is for my returned client Sara. To compliment existing furniture the colour chosen is truffle which is a chalk paint sealed with a clear polyurethane. Sara has chosen the marble and timber handles which set off this beautifull
Angela
These bedsides are custom for Anglea. These were originally a dressing table similar to photo. Angela wanted a fresh look so she has chosen the colour “Cotton”. As these are old they still have character but now more suited to Angela’s new home.
Ros
This sweet hall table had a mind of its own. My lovely returned client Ros wanted this sanded back and a wash applied to match a previous piece I had completed. We tried the whitewash just didn’t look good as had mix matched Timbers so we opted for a whitewash top and the bottom I’m “Moleskin”. Now lovely and fresh but still has her charm
Rachel
These pieces are for my lovely clients Rachel and Dave. The large sideboard of Tasmania Oak is a lovely solid piece but needed to be updated to fit into the new house. With the whole piece sanded down,the true colour came to life. To keep the lighter tone a light whitewash was added to neutralise as not to go yellow again once sealed. To create a coastal feel we have added the timber and white Mandela knobs from Sweet Peas new range of handles a perfect fit.
