Design
and Decorative Paint Techniques



The
Service
Decorative Ideas provide a complete design and decorating
service from colour design to preparation of wall surfaces and
decorative finishes.
Techniques
include
Colourwashing; antique distressed finishes; scumble glaze effects
i.e. rag rolling, sponging, stone blocking; marbling and stencilling.
Furniture
Why not have something different that can match or co-ordinate
with the colour of your room or furnishings, we can either use
furniture you already have and give it a new lease of life or
find something that suits your taste and hand paint it to the
desired effect. See our page on handpainted
furniture!
Colour

will be conducted and advice given on colour schemes and finishes.
Our team work with existing fabrics and furnishings to design
a colour scheme appropriate to the surroundings.
