“Really delighted with our two displays. They have surpassed our expectations and frankly pale a main-street brand/store into insignificance”

Kissing balls commissioned for Abbotsford House, Scottish Borders | Picture courtesy of Abbotsford House

As part of Abbotsford House’s Christmas decor Powder Grey was commissioned to produce a number of kissing balls. They were constructed using high quality artificial foliage, from Powder Grey artificial flower and foliage range. The image above is an example of larger kissing balls produced.

The brief was to produce 15 small and 6 large, in a rustic and naturalistic style. The benefit of using our service takes away decorating time from those who usually make them up when arranging the Christmas decor. The feedback from Abbotsford House was overwhelmingly positive: “everyone loves the ones you brought in”, and “cannot believe they are not real.” Mission accomplished!

Frame & Furniture Painting

Our introductory frame / furniture painting workshops are a great opportunity to relax and have some creative fun whilst you learn how to upcycle your items. You will have access to paints/brushes/waxes/aprons and can practice in a friendly and relaxed environment.

At the start of the class, over a cuppa, we will discuss colours and the item you have brought with you to paint, therefore please bring your chosen frame, ie picture frame, mirror frame, wall photo frame etc; or, if participating in a furniture workshop, your chosen item for upcycling. We offer a 10% discount on painting kits, tools and materials purchased during any paint workshops. Refreshments and nibbles will be available throughout the workshop. Please contact us to book.

During the class, you will learn…

How to prepare your piece
Practice brush work skills
How to protect with a wax or varnish
