"Julia of Absolutely Mintage has up-cycled a number of pieces of furniture for me over the last few years and I have always been absolutely thrilled with the results. She really listens to what you want to achieve and, using her immense experience, gives excellent advice on how to do that. Julia's attention to detail is first class and she really cares about the finished result being perfect. Nothing is ever too much trouble! Julia's communication is fantastic - she always keeps you up to date on how the project is going and how long it is likely to take - and she goes out of her way to make the whole process hassle-free, including collecting and delivering the items if required. I would not hesitate to recommend Absolutely Mintage."

Customer Reviews

"Julia was absolutely brilliant from start to finish.
I had a very old chest of drawers that I wanted giving a new lease of life. Julia came to my home saw the bedroom and my colour schemes and together we came up with a plan.
She worked hard to meet my expectations and certainly did that I am delighted with the finished result 👏🏻👏🏻
Would highly recommend if you are looking for up cycling. "
