Meet the maker Val Maiden

Pre loved... to re loved!

I like to find objects which have lost a little of their former sparkle and use decoupage to bring them back to life!

I take great pleasure in matching each item to its unique "new look". For instance, a disused container when it is covered in 1950s adverts becomes a stylish and colourful sweet tin! Likewise, a vintage ice bucket covered in early wine labels; a set of tired old coasters reworked with original 1920s soft drinks labels, or a writing case recovered in the columns of a turn of the century newspaper!

I use at least ten layers of clear gloss varnish to seal and protect each item, thus rendering each of them wipeable clean.

Please keep returning to my shop: I am not likely to run out of ideas or materials, but if you can think of anything you would like to see, please let me know!

I aim to post goods within three days of payment: first class unless requested otherwise. I offer a returns policy should your item not meet your requirements, and will refund the full cost of the item (minus postage) upon its return in resaleable condition.
