As a furniture painter here in the UK I’ve alway

As a furniture painter here in the UK I’ve always tried to stay clear of corner units for for some reason here they’re not as popular as they may be in other countries... i’m not sure let me know?
But when I came across this one I just knew with its beautiful details I had to transform as you can see from some of the pictures it was in a sorry state, but now it has its new life with chalk paint and lashings of dark wax the colours I’ve chosen to go with are Annie Sloan Château grey, and Versailles such a classic combination and timeless.
and I have to say now she has a new outfit on she looks perfect and really suits her final destination in my friends house,and I’ve change my mind about corner cabinets it’s such a practical piece of furniture especially in this tight space between two doorways. #anniesloan

Happy Tuesday everybody, So this morning I’ve be

Happy Tuesday everybody,
So this morning I’ve been catching up with clients appointments, in less than a week I will be going back to work after a very long lockdown.
I share this image as one of the best things that came out of Christmas this year in the middle of this last lockdown,
her name is Lilly she arrived just a week before Christmas lost and all alone and needing somebody to love her and she still with us now I suppose you could say we truly did get a white Christmas...😺Anyway this little cheeky face sits majestic in the dining room through the arched doorway to the front of the house from the hallway. I will be sharing more of the house renovations over the next few weeks and months. If you’d like to see how I stained the doors for this lined oak affect please check the highlights out listed door makeover.

This year has been tough for most us,
I have to say it’s been one of my most challenging and emotional times I’ve ever had which may explain my absence.
this image was taken A few weeks back. My husband Mr M dug up a few snowdrops just to brighten my day these originated from my Nanas garden many years ago and they’ve followers from house-to-house and are very special to both filled with lots of happy memories. I suppose what I’m trying to say is.... it’s the simple things in life that can bring happiness although the snowdrops are not so keen on being indoors and fade much quicker they are very forgiving, they’ll go back into the garden and delight us for future years to come.
Sending lots of love to everybody I hope to be back soon xx #paintedfurniture

One of the things I love most about home interiors

One of the things I love most about home interiors is staging and styling my finished painted pieces. I love setting a scene for each piece to tell their imagined story. This decadent sideboard made a perfect little cocktail bar in the corner of a dark and mysterious drawing room. It feels perfect for this time of year. A little bit special and a lot magical for Christmas. I’m sitting here wistfully thinking what my favourite cocktail would be if I wasn’t at work in the morning! Cheers to your Friday night whatever you have planned. Let me know what’s yours? #cocktailsathome #amsterdamgreen #goldleaf #gilding #goldfurniture #fadedglamour #cocktailhour #vintagefurniture #retrofurniture #styleitdark #maximalistinteriors #drinksbar #eclecticdecor #upcycledfurniture #furnituredesigner #upcycledsideboard #houseofmendes #eclecticchristmas #furnitureartist #paintedloveacademy #1930s #ihavethisthingwithgreen #goldfurniture #cocktailcabinet #opulentinteriors #ihavethisthingwithgold #fridaydrinks

Gold + Christmas. For me these two go hand in hand. I thought you’d like to see a close-up of the drawer from yesterday’s rich Amsterdam Green cocktail cabinet. Delightfully distressed with my signature fly spec. It’s a super easy way to give your furniture painting that softly distressed and beautiful aged patina. It’s bling, but in a softer subtler way.
