Hello Everyone!!
Well that was a lovely rest from social media for lent, It’s been liberating!!
How is everyone doing ?
What’s been going on in the world ?
I’ve had my head in my School books , reading novels and Painting away at home for clients while spending time with my New hubby . ❤️
Here’s one piece that I refinished few weeks back for a client who is refurbishing her hall way. ( she is having a new carpet ) 😉 when you see final result photo.

I painted it in good old Midnight blue from Fusion mineral paint courtesy of my wonderful friend Tracey from Tracey McKay Designs who is a stockist of Fusion over in Ireland.

Any hoo - hope everyone is well and life is treating you all grand .

I will be back again soon xx

What’s your favourite Colour wax in the tool kit ??

I have to say of all the detail wax I have tried in my years as a pro furniture up-cycler I do get in a panic without my dark wax.

It pops a piece in all the right places!!

In my wildest dreams growing up in the 80’s as a Tomgirl did I think I would be painting florals with gold trims.

But here we are - looking for the prettiest florals, the sparkly gold and adding it to furniture.

My younger self would be so ashamed 😆

And I heard it was coming back in 2026, florals galore in interior design and I cannot wait .

Where’s my Gen X tomgirls ??

I am stepping up 🙋🏻‍♀️

There’s always a journey & story behind every up-cycled piece of furniture 💕

People are to quick to judge furniture painters online , I have been lucky as I do not get much grief from the folk that hate painted furniture and if I do I just delete their comments , block and get on with my day.

It’s good to remember that every piece has a story both for the client , buyer and painter . Often it’s therapy , sentimental or gifts for others.

What ever the reason is behind the upcycle, we are keeping landfill from filling up and they can always be stripped back to original state and continue their life as useful furniture.
Pretty lucky really that I have the opportunity to be creative and earn a living from it 💕

Chalk Painting, my favourite pass time 🥰

A little reintroduction ⬇️

If your new here please do introduce yourself 🤗 Do not be shy , we are all new at something 💕

So who am I ???

Kerry-Rose , recently became a Mrs 😜

Moms of 4 boys , now past the age of family allowance 🤫( yes I am actually that old ) and living their best life .
I have worked as a furniture Artists & refinisher for 15 years .
I too started off in my kitchen with 1 tin of paint from Annie Sloan Chalk Paint , a look in my eye and house full of hand me downs . A little nudge from a dear friend with a statement that changed my life, my home and my future . Hopefully others have benefited along the way . I have been very blessed in the industry and extremely grateful for the connections and close friends I have learnt from.

The famous quote as I sat on the floor crying in tears was “ your creative , get off your arse and paint “

So that’s what I did 🙊

I grew from the kitchen to the garage - garage to a booth - booth to a shared unit with friends - unit to a shop -

Now I am slowing down , evolving in different directions .

After 15 years , hundreds of tins of paint & brushes , I’ve lost count of how many pieces of furniture I have painted for friends , family , bespoke clients & creatively sales pieces, there’s a little bit of me scattered in homes across the UK.
My heart is teaching others and empowering creative skills, it’s never been about going viral , winning awards or slave to brands . Which would also be very nice 😆

My fundamental values have been and always will be sharing & teaching others to empower their homes with a little creativity, money saving tips and recommendations of some of the best products on the market .

That’s how simple it was , no gimmicks , no luck , just hard graft juggling kids as a single mom whilst managing a full time job .

If I have any advice for new starters in industry it would be - please do not measure your beginning by another’s middle or ending. It’s your journey and you need to travel it at your own speed . 💕
Oh and that piece you just watched , one of my favourite pieces . I kind of have a girly crush for florals and chippy furniture. Hope you love it …. 🥰

Cowboys,Arab princes ,oil rig workers , big peachy bums and nutritious drink subscriptions pushers most likely DO NOT and are not interested in up-cycling furniture or painting furniture techniques 🙊

The anxiety it gave me deleting them one by one in little intervals was overwhelming over the weekend and I asked myself these questions -

Do I care if I do not hit 10k followers in 2026 ( my goal in 2025 )
Will they buy my furniture?
Are they fake accounts ?
How do they interact with my posts ??

Once I knew the answer off they went into the bin box !

With a bit of look it will reset my algorithm, push my reach and bring better connections online .

I am streamlining my life , my business , my stock too .
so why should I have my followers bulked up with no connection ? I want to enjoy social media and share connections with heart felt people that have the same interests as me .

It felt so good to be in control of my numbers and not worry !

So here’s to taking control back and new connections in industry !!

The only number I’m worrying about is my waist line 😁
I might even throw the baby out with bath water and see what happens with no hashtags 🙊🤷🏻‍♀️
