RESTORE | REPAIR | REUSE | REPURPOSE

“Your home should be a story of who you are, and be a collection of what you love.” – Nate Berkus

Well-crafted furniture is timeless.

Timeless craftsmanship deserves a second chance. Too often, treasures of superior craftsmanship meet undeserved fates in landfills, tucked away in sheds, or reduced to firewood. No matter the wear, damage, or neglect, furniture holds the potential to be reborn into something exquisite, tailored to your individual style and taste. Our mission is to rescue these pieces, breathing new life into them to grace your home with joy and beauty for years to come. Together we can rewrite their stories, preserving their legacy and enriching your space with character, charm, and a touch of furniture history.

Furniture

We work with all movable articles of furniture such as chairs, tables, desks, cupboards, chests and drawers.

“As a creative team, we take your vision and allow the creative process to work its magic in crafting pieces that inspire belief in the transformative power of beauty!”

Our Work

Our focus is on restoration and repair services, upcycling commissions and individual distinctive pieces.

The Team

Adrian excels as a furniture restorer, demonstrating remarkable skill in reviving even the most neglected pieces. His meticulous attention to detail and craftsmanship breathe new life into our commissions, elevating them to unparalleled quality.
Glynnes, a student of art and design, possesses a keen eye for colour and interior aesthetics. Her unique ability lies in transforming each piece into something extraordinary, resonating deeply with the heart and soul of your space. Through her work, she infuses warmth, emotion, and personality into every corner of your home.

Our Process

Bringing old furniture back to life is all about meticulous care and attention to detail. We start with a deep, thorough cleaning. Then, we turn our focus to any cosmetic or structural issues, ensuring that the piece is not only beautiful but also sturdy and reliable.
We understand the importance of preserving the history and integrity of antique and vintage pieces, and that’s why we take extra care to maintain their structural integrity, ensuring they retain their value and charm for years to come.
Once the cleaning and assessment are complete, we move on to repairs. Whatever is required, whether it’s a complete overhaul or simply dealing with a scratch, we handle each repair with precision and skill, ensuring that every element is revitalised to its fullest potential.
And then we’re ready to work our magic, stripping away old finishes or applying a vibrant new coat of paint, we’re experts at bringing out the beauty in every piece.
We approach each project with creativity and imagination. We love to highlight the unique elements of the original piece, even as we transform it into something entirely new and unexpected. It’s all about celebrating the beauty and potential of each piece, no matter its history or previous use.

Reviews and Recommendations

Adrian and Glynnes are so passionate about wood. My Mums beautiful Ercol coffee table had small cracks appearing in it because when she passed away it left her cold house and came to my warm flat. Mum and dad had had it since the early 1960s. Adrian has done an incredible job. He went into great detail about the process and how to maintain its condition with the correct waxes etc. You can see that for Adrian that wood just isn’t a job. It’s part of his life. I thoroughly recommend them to anyone.
Thanks guys.

Creampot Furnishings restored an old ercol rocking chair for me and it is perfect, they even helped collected and deliver my eBay purchase. Adrian spent hours stripping the chair back to its original wood and then used a clear varnish to bring out its beauty while Glynnes made a new cushion out of the most divine material. The webbing was fully replaced too. Everything was done with so much care and love and I was consulted at every step of the journey. You will not be disappointed if you use creampot to transform your treasures.

Adrian has just completed the most extraordinary job restoring a family Georgian mirror. I found Adrian through a lucky recommendation. When I unwrapped the mirror and saw the extent of the damage I thought it was a right off, but Adrian took it away and after months of painstaking and intricate work, brought it back yesterday. And WOW what a renaissance! I can not recommend him more highly. Thank you!!!

While clearing my mother in laws house, after her passing, I came across a wooden chest that my father in law made many years ago. Glynnes and Adrian turned it into a lovely blanket chest. They listened to what I wanted and suggested many options and showed me lots of pictures. With their guidance, I decided on colour, decor etc. Glynnes was in contact with me throughout the process. They delivered it this evening and I was astounded by the transformation, didn’t think it would look so wonderful sat in the bedroom. I would highly recommend Creampot Furnishings, a very professional team.

Really happy with my chairs! They look amazing! Even managed to transform the legs of my chair from a claw to a ball leg (I hope is the right term). I am just amazed! They even transformed my ugly lamp shade into a beautiful piece to look at!!! Not only a great talent and really creative when it comes to furniture, but also very helpful, and really great people! Trustworthy, knowledgeable, kind and nice to talk to! Giving honest advice and opinion. Can’t find enough words to describe them and their work!
Certainly will seek again their work!
