🥳 Good evening y’all!!! Home At 96 wanted to share our latest commission. This time our lovely customer wanted to update two John Lewis wicker type chairs with chrome legs.
One was for the bedroom so she wanted a paint colour that would match her new bedroom curtains. As you can see the rich Napoleon Blue chalk paint was chosen and the chair was literally transformed.
The second chair was for the living room space and a more neutral colour of Old Ochre cream was chosen. Both chairs were then coated in a liquid wax to protect and finish. They both look beautiful in their new settings!

🥳 Welcome to August y’all!! We at Home At 96 would like to share 3 pieces of furniture completed recently for another lovely customer.
The first piece is low wooden bedroom chair that was looking very tired. The wood was cleaned, sanded in areas and then sealed with a wax finish. The seat was completely reupholstered with a beautiful bold fabric and totally transformed.
The second piece was an old upright, slightly wobbly chair with lots of sentiment attached to it. Again the wood was cleaned, sanded and sealed and adjusted so one could sit comfortably again. The seat was reupholstered with a clean patterned fabric.
The third piece was a charming old piano stool again with sentiment attached to it. This stool was painted in Duck Egg blue chalk paint etched with gold. Then waxed in a Clear and Dark wax to finish. The seat was freshly upholstered in a duck egg blue French toile fabric with a braid to finish.
Each piece now has had a delightful and distinctive appearance! We are happy to help! Treat yourself!

Good morning y’all We at Home At 96 would like to share our latest commission. This time our lovely customers wanted us to paint two of their mirrors. After a free consultation at their home they decided on colour and style. They chose a Paris Grey chalk paint for both.
The first mirror was a long modern wooden one. We added some old long metal hinges to each corner for effect.
The second mirror had beautiful carved arches with aged detail. Both were painted and then finished with a Clear, Dark and White wax. Both finished mirrors seen hanging in their home.
