Handmade and More
Description
Hello we are John and Kathleen and have been working as Handmade and More since 2012. We specialise in upcycling vintage furniture using our painting, joinery and upholstery skills. Many items of our painted furniture are for sale but if you would prefer to have something of yours re-vamped please get in touch for a quote.

Mirror madness in the studio this week but these two are just about ready to go home.
Happy Easter
Spent a great day yesterday with Anthony Devine and an amazing bunch of people at the Ministry of Upholstery making fabulous contemporary bench/stools like this one. We are now holding workshops in Carlton, Stockton-on-Tees so if you would like to make one yourself or one of the Ministry's classic footstools please get in touch for more details. No experience necessary.
The second transformation this week returned to it's happy owner. We would like to thank both of these customers for their continued support.
First of this weeks pieces ready to go to it's new home. We have another similar sideboard which we can paint in any colour or style if anyone is interested please get in touch.
Our ugly house to lovely house finally getting there!
The latest piece made at the Ministry of Upholstery which we have decided is a keeper! It is perfect as additional seating would fit wonderfully in a bay window or at the end of your bed. If you would like one making in a fabric of your choice please get in touch.
Already started to transform this very tired and ugly chaise longue, taking it to Manchester tomorrow to complete the make over at the Ministry of Upholstery..
Two of our latest bespoke lamps. We can create personalised letter press lamps with our stock vintage letter press or can create a lamp out of any querky treasure you might have.
