Some furniture projects call for something more individual than a single colour.

Whether you want a calm contemporary finish or a more decorative feature piece, the aim is to create furniture that feels designed for your home.
Common questions about painted furniture.
Can pine furniture be painted?
Yes. Pine furniture is often ideal for painting, provided knots, previous finishes and surface wear are prepared correctly before priming and painting.
Can oak furniture be painted?
Yes. Oak furniture can be painted successfully with the right preparation, although the grain and existing finish need to be assessed first.
Can fitted furniture be painted?
Yes. Fitted wardrobes, bookcases, studies, utility rooms and boot room furniture can often be painted to create a more considered and coordinated finish.
Is painting furniture worth it?
If the furniture is well made, useful or difficult to replace, painting can be a very worthwhile alternative to buying new.
Is hand painting better than spraying?
It depends on the furniture, the finish required and where the work is being carried out. Hand painting is often ideal for fitted furniture and occupied homes, while spraying may suit some removable or workshop-based items.
