Madder Than Woad
Restoration, customising and design services for textiles, paper and furniture in South West Scotland.
Restoration, customising and design services for textiles, paper and furniture in South West Scotland.
This solo venture started in 2018 as Madder and Woad but I renamed it in 2022 to better express the uniqueness of each of my pieces and the inclusive use and re-use of a wide variety of materials.
My design is driven by playfulness and a love of colour, sometimes with animals appearing as totems, or plants and flowers more simply as a reminder of the beauty found in nature.
Located in rural Dumfries and Galloway, southern Scotland, I have a small workshop space and accept pieces dropped off for their makeover and then collected by the client (collection and delivery locally sometimes possible).
I transform and bring back to life your furniture by restoring, upcycling, stripping and painting your worn-out wooden chairs and tables.
I hand-make greetings cards by drawing, lino printing and collage and enjoy the challenge of designing logos and motifs.
My range of bags, totes and pouches have been designed to be playful, practical and secure, with colourful natural motifs and secret compartments.
If you have any questions or would like to know more about my upholstery and reconditioning services, please get in touch with a call or send me a message.
