CREATIVE UPCYCLING, TEXTILES & MORE.
About
I have loved furniture, fabric and textiles for as long as I can remember. As my children grew up, I was constantly making crafts, painting rooms and furniture. Although my profession was in the health care field, I was always "working on a project". In the last few years, as my time has become more my own, I have become passionate about restoring pieces of furniture that would have been thrown away. There are so many things that we have in our homes that can be repurposed and with a little love and imagination they can become the treasures they were meant to be.
Simply Stark has evolved from just doing furniture restoration to working with textiles with either simple reupholstery, cushions and pillows and other decorative pieces.
I really enjoy working with clients to discover their own vision and would love to connect with anyone who has a special piece that can become a one of a kind item. Scroll down to send me a message.
