Meaghan Ritchie has been painting furniture since 1994. She spends her time scouring antiques shops and furniture sellers to discover a wide range of high quality and versatile pieces to revamp with love.

Every piece is unique, painted to suit the needs of the customer, using the finest natural Artisan paints. Explore the pieces for sale in the shop, including the very popular Harry Potter collection.

A few years later, I found myself a single mother with two children to support on my own. Of course, funds were very limited, but there was no reason that we couldn’t still have a beautiful eclectic home, so we would pick up pieces at garage sales, op shops, the side of the road (the kids got very good at squaishing themselves over to fit in some piece I had found!) or pieces that people didn’t want or were throwing away. I would paint at night and on weekends and this actually became my therapy. These years were such happy ones as the three of us really enjoyed each others’ company and it was amazing to see them grow and become young adults (who are very thrifty!)

Eventually, I met an amazing man through family, who is now my husband Kirk. Once I met Kirk, my life changed again in so many ways, absolutely for the better. Although I still look for old, unloved furniture pieces, Kirk now repairs and repurposes them with me, which allows me to be more creative  and come up with new ideas, which he works out how, then implements for me.

Now I think I am one of the luckiest people alive, as I had the opportunity to resign from my corporate position and paint full time – a dream come true for me. I would much rather be out getting dusty and dirty but bringing old pieces back to life than be in an office all day!
