Furniture Painting
“With the swish of a paint brush and a beautiful paint…”
Our award-winning furniture painting and commission service is our speciality at Marmalade House Design. We have many years of painting furniture professionally, for large or small projects and we’re always very happy to advise, or visit you to discuss your ideas.
Whether you need to re-style many pieces of furniture; whether you have horrors in the attic you can’t bear to look at or throw away; or if you have simple items that just need a facelift then we are able to help.
Our beautiful hand-painted French and Gustavian finishes can be bespoke-painted in any colour of your choice, and our colour-layering techniques offer a subtle, vintage feel that can blend into any colour-scheme.
We are skilled in painting kitchens and can advise you how to transform your current units and cabinets without having to replace them. We blend lacquers with our paint for a robust, hard-wearing surface that still has our beautiful trademark chalkiness.
Testimonials

We offer a range of finishes, from flat waxed to distressed and aged, and we often colour-layer for a more creative result. We can also lime-wash wood, and are skilled in gilding, crackle-glazing, stenciling and decoupage.
Colour samples are provided and advice is given for each piece we paint, to ensure you make the right choice for your furniture project. Most of our work is undertaken in our bespoke studios in Kelston, Bath, but we also work onsite for larger projects.
Voted as one of the top 10 interiors businesses in the South West and nomiated for numerous awards, our work is of the highest quality and our well-known standards of excellence are assured. You can see more of our work on our gallery page.
