Design & Commission Service
A bespoke furniture process that will help you to fall back in love with your furniture.
Helping your house feel a little more like home.
Commissioning me to create your bespoke furniture offers you a unique opportunity to transform your space with bespoke pieces that bring warmth, character and personality to your home.
By commissioning me to upcycle your furniture for you, this allows you to make both a sustainable and personal choice. Imagine a once-loved piece of furniture, worn and weary, gathering dust in a forgotten corner. Each scratch tells a story, each faded hue a memory of laughter, warmth, and life shared within its embrace. These are memories that are lost forever if the piece is simply scrapped and replaced.
At Upcycled by M, we breathe new life into these cherished relics, lovingly transforming them into contemporary treasures.
The Process
Design Consultation & Briefing
I know how exciting the thought of having a piece of furniture upcycled can be, but I also appreciate how daunting the thought of having your furniture refinished can also be. But dont worry, I will hold your hand throughout the journey.
As we upcycle, we honour the past—celebrating every imperfection that has sculpted its journey. With each brush of paint and meticulous restoration, we invite you to create new memories, wrapping your space in warmth and sincerity. In every crafted piece lies the promise of love, a testament to resilience, and an invitation to cherish anew the moments that matter most.
I love discussing colours and room schemes with my clients and that can be over the phone, in person at a clients home, or at our farmhouse. It’s great to hear the excitement build during the conversation as you start to visualise how beautiful and how transformative your furniture makeover is going to be.
We will talk about any ideas you have about possible colour palettes, design ideas and how you want the piece of furniture to make the room feel. Sometimes clients want the furniture to make the room feel lighter, more contemporary or harmonise more with their existing pieces of furniture.
As a result of the conversation, you will have a clear indication of the costs involved and timescales and next steps.
I can create a Moodboard to help you visualise your piece with different handles, colour ideas and design schemes.
I will provide you with a selection of paint colour swatch sticks which you can take home and look at in your room and your lighting, next to your existing carpets, and furnishings.
So the next step is when I actually start transforming your furniture for you. This is the exciting part!
I will keep in touch throughout the process keeping you in the loop on how things are going and discussing any design changes along the way. I like to journal the progress for you with photos and show you how the piece is evolving and developing at each stage, checking in that you are happy with how it is developing. I am happy to lead design choices for you or work collaboratively with you to help your vision come to life.
Furniture Transformations
“From the first reply after contacting Rebecca via her website, Upcycled by M, the communication and service has been amazing. Rebecca went out of her way to help with colour choices for paint. Rebecca has brought new life to some Stag furniture. I am delighted with the end result and the quality of finish. Great service from start to finished product.”

Furniture Delivery
Once your furniture transformation has been completed and your piece of furniture is all ready to come back home to take centre stage, we will be in contact to arrange collection/ delivery. Some clients prefer to deliver their furniture to our farmhouse themselves and have their design consultation at the same time and therefore will also probably collect it afterwards.
You may prefer for us to collect it and deliver it back to you once refinished, while you relax at home, receiving updates throughout the process.
We will collect your piece ourselves personally wherever possible and only use trusted couriers if the distance dictates this will be more cost effective for you.
My husband, Roy does all of our deliveries, so you can ask him any questions when he collects.
We pride ourselves on our communication with you and have regular contact about timings of the project and are very flexible to accommodate your needs and make sure you receive a seamless service.
