The way upcycle
Cabinets and furniture painting
ON NOW ! ❤️👋
Come say 👋
We are on until 2pm in Emerald
Before and after
What’s been going on in the caravan ?
After we gutted it all, we added the new insulation, then Installed the walls. We used 3.2mm caravan lining from . These are very light, affordable and easy to cut/ install. They are also pretty bendy which is a bonus.
Next up will be adding all the trims around the windows and the door. We’ll also fix + install the new flooring and work on the electrical !
Taking it one step at a time and not rushing :)
Available now more than ever 💪
I know this is a funny time for everyone right now, with sales being very slow,
But I am still taking bookings for the rest of the year, so if you have furniture that needs a makeover, please send me a DM today to arrange a quote.
No projects too big or too small, price range varies depending on the level of service you are looking for.
ALSO remember that not long ago I launched a new side of my business consisting of painting and remodel of kitchen/ bathroom cabinets, so if you love your kitchen but find it a bit outdated, I would love to work alongside you to bring it back to the modern era 😃
Pick up and delivery can be arranged if you don’t own a big enough vehicle.
Please share my business around to your friends and family, this truly means the 🌎 to me. 🙏😘
Nice transformation for this good quality tv unit. Though it was lacking modernity, this cabinet was in great shape. All it needed was a refresh. Painted with highgate semi gloss ; a light grey colour. I updated some pulls by spraying them silver. For the top I used a custom blend of greys/ white and beige.
What do you think of this transformation? 🤍
Antique side cabinet fresh up 🌟
Even though the integrity of the cabinet was great, it was still a big job to get this right.
My first challenge was that I couldn’t remove the handles, which makes it tricky to refinish them. I used a golden wax and applied with a brush.
My second and most annoying issue was…. Yep you guessed it right : BLEED THROUGH 🥴
Painting semi gloss white over antique walnut is so hard. I used my trusty old shellac primer, and as usual it saved me 🙏
The colour used for this piece is vivid white by dulux, a pure and crisp white that matches with any aesthetic.
What do you think of this transformation?
Very satisfying before and after.

📚A royal library available for sale📚
Wow this piece has been an incredible project ! From an outdated brown to a classic black, it’s got its glory back.
Custom made and imported from Egypt in the 90’, it’s been sitting in the same home for over two decades.
It was time for me to use my secret tips and transform it into something more modern.
I started by removing the doors and all the very rococo hardware, I then covered the mirrors with a backing.
I also created some new shelves to accommodate plenty of books and home decor.
Spray painted in a nice satin black & embellished with simple golden k***s.
I refinished the interior but kept the original wood finish.
This beauty is outrageously heavy, 100% real wood throughout, it is by far the heaviest piece I ever work on, making it a real challenge to move and transport.
It’s new owner will have to arrange freight.
Measurements are :
Lenght 220cm
Height 220cm
Depth 45cm
Inspection welcome, available for sale country wide
Kreisler record player restoration
What a great honour it is when clients trust me with their family herloom.
For this one I sanded the old finish, fixed some chipped spot, restained and varnished. I am very proud of this project it was so much fun 🥰
Big shout out to my hubby for fixing the actual radio and player, what a legend 😀
Swipe to see the old finish !
Last piece of this big commission set done :)
It was a pleasure to work with such a beautifully, and saving all these furniture from the dump ! Now they match their newly built home and they are no longer outdated :)
Faux antique sideboard buffet available for sale !
I cannot tell you how much I love this piece ! It’s perfectly imperfect but has so much character and charm.
Not only is it cool, but it’s also extremely solid and well manufactured (100% Tasmanian oak throughout)
I achieved this look using a router and creating fake drawers front into the doors (there are only four drawers and four doors)
Painted in oil based chalkboard paint, sealed with liquid wax, distressed by hand for a organic and authentic look.
This beautiful and unique piece is available for purchase for 990$, delivery and shipping available 🇦🇺 wide at buyers cost.

Colour Cove
Cabinets & furniture painting
Finally decided to follow my gut feeling.
Even though I love working from home, I feel like I need to challenge myself even more.
After 4 years refinishing furniture, I can now say I have the knowledge and assurance to tackle some larger scale projects.
Colour cove will still be focusing on furniture refurbishing but will also include a bunch of new services such as kitchen and bathroom remodel, accent walls and doors painting etc.
I know this will be a challenge at times for me, but I am more than ready to start this new journey. Thank you so much, for trusting me with all your special projects 🙏
I cannot wait to share what’s coming with you all :)
Basically there will be a new business name, a new design to match my aesthetic and more importantly some new services available ! Thank you for your constant support, it means a lot to me.

One very special project.
What went through this piece ?
I paid 50$ for the table, picked it up (drove 60km return)

Invested approx 50$ in material and supplies.

Posting at random hours 🫶🏼
I have so much to say about this project :
Absolutely nothing went to plan, I’ve spent way to many hours than I would have wanted to.
I am selling this piece as is, the paint job is up to standard however there are a few bits and pieces that I am not 100% convinced about, I have no more time or budget to allocate to it, so if you are interested in an absolute bargain please send me a DM 💌
Cute little set of bedside tables. Love the shape of these.
Sanded throughout with 240, used ESP to clean and degrease, primed with shellac then painted with aquanamel. They came out so good, swipe for the before pic
Such a nice piece ! Solid and in excellent condition. It was a pleasure to give it a new look 🦢💭
Taking bookings for next month, if you have a piece of furniture that needs refresh send me a DM 🥰
Piece 7/7 out of this big set ! All done, so happy with everything.
This big coffee table got a nice fresh start, it was pretty dinted but in overall great shape.
I am@taking bookings for March/April so if you have a piece of furniture that needs done send me a message and I’ll be happy to talk you through the process.
Make sure to slide to the last pic to see the before ! I love how rewarding tv units are. This design is so popular but no matter how you refinish them, they’ll always turn out pretty. This time for my client we kept a very classic style, to fit her brand new home. Painted with aquanamel . One of my favourite paint on the market.
