Credentials
Antique veneer Bow-fronted chest of drawers. Very large!
Painted in thick layers of Annie Sloan chalk paint (I always sand items prior to painting to ensure the paint adheres nicely.) This features antique images taken from Victorian seed packets and postcards, curated and copied by myself in fade resistant ink. All applied, using the decoupage technique in a collage. I have then painted across this in textured, thick layers. The text reads in the colour of the undercoat. I aim to create the feel of a genuinely aged bohemian piece.
The paint finish has been HEAVILY distressed, back to wood in some places and to reveal the different shade of the paint layers. Finally varnished with a floor varnish to provide a durable finish.
This is an Antique lady who has enjoyed a full life. She is a refurbished piece and though sturdy and sound, may have life marks, dinks, knocks etc particularly in the veneer. The drawers slide smoothly. No woodworm. The insides are good and clean, no odour and have been painted in pale, dove grey. They had originally been lined with paper that had been glued in so the interior surface is a little lumpy and bumpy.

Hello, I’m Vikki, an upcycling artist from beautiful Dorset. I create statement décor from things that probably would have ended up in landfill. I combine imagery (the quirkier the better) with wording (sometimes sweary, always empowering) and bright paint colours and bring all of these components together in textured layers. I aim to create the feel of a genuinely aged, bohemian piece that not only recycles but will make you smile every time you look at it.
