About Artistic Furniture Upcycling
Home isn’t just walls and floors for me, it’s memories and moments stitched together in every piece of furniture. I see old cupboards, chests, or even that stubborn pooja room door as more than things - they’re stories waiting for a new chapter. Most folks think about tossing out furniture that looks dated or tired, but I’d rather give it a second life with a touch of art.
How I Work My Magic
- First, we’ll chat. I want to know what this piece means to you and what vibe you want for your space.
- I prep the furniture - cleaning, sanding, the whole works. This step’s a bit messy, but totally worth it for that flawless canvas.
- Time for the fun part. I’ll hand-paint your vision, blending my style with your ideas. For big stuff, like those heavy cupboards, I can swing by your place in Bangalore and paint it right there.
- A solid finish on top keeps the artwork safe, even if your kids or pets are a bit wild.
What I Love to Upcycle
I don’t shy away from a challenge. I’ve worked on:
- Old cabinets, chests, heritage pieces
- Lampshades needing a splash of colour
- Even driftwood, if you want something super offbeat for your sustainable home decor
Real Talk
Every project’s a bit of a rollercoaster. Sometimes things don’t go as planned, and I have to use full-on jugad (quick fixes) to make it work. But that’s the beauty - the result is always one-of-a-kind, like true custom furniture art.
