    OUR VINTAGE FURNITURE IN YOUR HOME!

    OUR VINTAGE FURNITURE IN YOUR HOME

    It is our greatest pleasure to see our preloved vintage furniture in your home.  We handpick our preloved vintage and contemporary pieces of furniture, emporia, gardenalia, always with you in our hearts and mind.

    It is our warmest moments then, to see our vintage furniture in your home.

     Vintage Pine Buffet - www.lovinglymadeltd.co.uk

    Stunning Vintage Pine Buffet

    This stunning French Vintage Pine Buffet, fitted into the space required within an inch! The owner is delighted as it is being used to store material and sewing equipment, so all beautifully put away and the buffet looks beautiful as a piece of furniture in the study room too.

    On the left of this buffet are two items that this lovely lady has made with us in our Craft School,  a "Dilly" bag and "Etuile" box, and on the right hand side, a beautiful glass lantern from our home collection within our Vintage Boutique. So many reasons to come along to see us!

    Apple Ladder and Vintage Bench - www.lovinglymadeltd.co.uk

    Stunning Vintage Orchard Ladder and Vintage Bench in Sussex

    These two items of beautiful vintage gardenalia are now sitting proudly in a quite famous home in Sussex (sadly I can't say where), but they are being so well looked after! The orchard ladder will certainly being used for picking apples and pears this summer and I am certain copious cups of tea will be drunk, sitting comfortably on this lovely bench after a hard day's work in the huge vegetable garden!

    Refurbished Tin Box - www.lovinglymadeltd.co.uk

    Refurbished vintage tin box on one of our beautiful vintage elm stools

    Recently I was asked to clean and refurbish this delightful tin Victorian box with the most exquisite hand painted writing on it.  It had been used by a shoe maker, who kept all his shoe making tools inside, and upon each of his children growing out of their pair of shoes, he would either make them bigger with inserting a piece of leather or smaller to fit a younger sibling.  What a beautiful story.  The vintage elm stool just set the whole scene off together.

    So, from making a sewing box, to refurbishing old tin boxes, to gathering apples from trees, to sitting comfortably, we think we have most things covered. Why not pop over and see what we can do for you!

    We would love to see you.
    With best wishes,

    LOTS OF HENS IN THE CRAFT SCHOOL!

    LOTS OF HENS IN THE CRAFT SCHOOL! and a lovely Bride to be...

    Congratulations to Karen!

    Welcome to the girls..

    What a wonderful start to the New Year with a fabulous happy Bride to be, with her 'hens' all gathered around her, making fabric bunting for her Wedding day.  Liz, our incredibly talented tutor gathered all the girls together and began to show the girls how to make the special Wedding bunting. Each triangle had a special coin dropped into it, a very special memory moment.  Two wonderful girls began sewing with their sewing machines, some of the girls cutting out triangular shapes, and some of the girls had ironing to do but what they all had was lots and lots of fun! 

    Bunting being made!

    Karen and her hen party all had a wonderful day with us, sewing and bunting, pastries and coffee, lunch and lifts back to their Hotel in Felbridge.  A completely wonderful day with hand made and hand sewn bunting ready for Karen's wedding day. 

     The Bride and hens with their finished bunting...

    The finished bunting ready for Karen's wedding day!  Congratulations all round girls! Thanks to Liz our wonderful tutor, who was such an integral part of their success, thank you...x

    Hope to see your Wedding photographs very soon Karen!

    AN AMAZING YEAR, AMAZING CUSTOMERS

    22/12/15 - AN AMAZING YEAR, AMAZING CUSTOMERS!

    Lovingly Made Vintage Boutique - www.lovinglymadeltd.co.uk

    An amazing year! Where has the time gone? The year seems to have flown past! Lots of changes here at Lovingly Made.

    We sadly had to say goodbye to our beloved Greenhouse, which was beautiful but beyond repair.  We really tried to save her, yes she was a girl greenhouse!  So sadly, we had to demolish her.  

    The polytunnel had a facelift with a new covering and new lighting, which was a fabulous job done.  We would never have managed either without my Dad and John.  Working all hours on both projects and clearing up and recycling as much as we could.

    The Craft School had new curtains made, by my mum and they look fabulous. Small little tweaks here and there continue to make it a wonderful Hobby Hub and our classes go strength to strength.  We hope to bring new classes, floristry, furniture painting and some new sewing classes too.  Watch this space!

    During the Christmas Break, John and I are refurbishing the main Vintage Boutique.  I cannot believe where 5 years have gone.  The walls and floor are due for a new lick of paint.  We have started moving all our furniture and wonderful treasures.  A mammoth task, but one which are funnily enough looking forward to.  

    An amazing year, amazing customers! Yes YOU!  Without you, there wouldn't be a Lovingly Made.  You are what make it so special.  We thank you so much for all your support, friendship and affection. 

    Thank you from all of us here at Lovingly Made - www.lovinglymadeltd.co.uk

    Merry Christmas, Happy New Year!
    Best wishes, lots of Christmas love,
    Trixie
