News from the world of hand painted kitchens & furniture
This kitchen in Stirling and is overlooked by the monument and has some beautiful views, no wonder we are so happy to go back for the third time! When Ian started painting kitchens full time (around 11 years ago) this was one of the very first ones that he painted. The client asked Ian back about 6 years ago to …
This is a 10 year old “standard” melamine kitchen. We were recommended to the client by her friends who had had us in to paint their kitchen. She loved the idea of being able to brighten the room without the cost of a whole new kitchen. As this was melamine it is not able to be sanded, so after a …
We love doing kitchens but sometimes its nice to do something a bit different. This client had a beautiful side board, small chest of drawers and coffee table that she was looking to be ‘modernised’ to fit in more with the decor in the room. as she liked the existing handles but felt that the brass look would not go …
Our client inherited this kitchen when they bought this prestigious house in Edinburgh. Although a very well made kitchen the previous painters hadn’t taken as much time or care over it as you might have expected or indeed should have. As you can see from the pictures the previous painter had even painted the hinges! And although they had done a …
This one was a bit of a change from our regular colours and we love it. This existing kitchen was factory painted, so as usual there is no need for us to take the doors to our workshop. All the doors were removed and worked on on-site with the help of our new rack. The whole kitchen was given a …
This was a lovely little kitchen that, with a little bit of help, was made to feel much more spacious. The client chose the colour ‘Tallow’from Farrow and Ball. Here you can see that even though the doors have been sanded and various coats of paint applied you can still see the texture of the …
This job was a lovely kitchen that just needed a freshen up. The client decided to change the colour to give a new feel to the room. She chose Farrow and Ball ‘Light blue’. As it was already painted we do not need to sand them as much as we would with a wooden kitchen. It means that we can …
Its been a few weeks since we’ve posted some new news as we have been pretty busy but here is a job we done not so long ago through in the west. This was a lovely hand made kitchen that, like a lot of the ones we work on, was still in great condition. Rather than getting rid of it …
Just a short update on the post we put up a while ago (Second Hand Clive Christian Kitchen). We completed this kitchen earlier in the year, but the client hadn’t had her granite worktops installed yet, and we said we would love to take some photos when it was all complete. It has been some time since they were installed …
We just thought we would give you a quick update on a kitchen we painted last month. The client had decided that she would like new worktops so we recommended ‘Granite Transformations’. We had heard of them through other clients and had heard and seen the great work that they do. The client chose a white colour with a slight …
