The Patchwork Umbrella

The Patchwork Umbrella The Patchwork Umbrella is a haven of homemade loveliness Welcome to The Patchwork Umbrella - Bespoke furniture renovations.

We pride ourselves in being a friendly, family run business small enough to care and listen, but competent enough to dress your entire home. We have over a decade of high quality restoration experience and all of our items are hand sourced and we only stock what we are proud enough to place in our own home. Our main aim is to source the perfect piece for our customers at their request. (Please see

terms and conditions)
As part of out team we have available an qualified joiner who ensures that although our items are pre-loved they still have a lifetime to offer, this also means that we can offer a unique bespoke service. As well as hand renovated furniture, under the Umbrella of craft we also proudly create home made accessories and seasonal items. The Patchwork Umbrella is focused enough to deal with tailor made requests and even offer assistance with courier services, only working with the most competitive priced companies with the highest of standards. TERMS & CONDITIONS:
When placing an order with The Patchwork Umbrella, you will receive a confirmation email and breakdown of items ordered. This should include any courier arrangements. From this point onwards our customers have 7 days 'cooling off' whereby an order can be cancelled. Unless it is stated by the customer that the order is to go ahead purchases will not be made unless the cooling off period is expired. If for whatever reason our customers are unhappy, then on receiving their items they are within their right to send them back in the condition that they have received them, for a full refund as per long distance selling laws, however the return courier charge will be at the customers expense. Refunds will not be issued until items are returned to our premises. This is very unlikely as we succeed in working so close with our customers at every stage of the process to ensure a happy result. Customers are free to pay in instalments at my discretion, however items will not be dispatched until full payment has been received. A minimum deposit of 25% is required before items are specifically sourced, but larger deposits can be made at request. A minimum of 10% is required as deposit to secure 'general sale' items. We are not responsible for goods in transit, however we will assist our customers in any claims made against said couriers. We do accommodate customers who use their own couriers or choose to collect their items themselves, within our operating hours. Hours can be extended upon request at our discretion. Please note that if an item is purchased but not collected at an agreed date then a small storage may apply.

✨ Sometimes all it takes is one kind conversation… ✨

This morning started with me drilling the handle holes on a piece I was working on, only to realise afterwards that I’d put them in upside down! 🙈 Safe to say I was having one of those days and questioning everything.

But then something lovely happened.

A wonderful lady called Vicki from House of Brotherhood popped into the workshop to introduce herself. Vicki specialises in reupholstery and is based just around the corner from me. We had such a lovely chat, and it was a reminder of how supportive and welcoming the creative community can be.

Running a small business can sometimes feel quite lonely, so meeting another local craftsperson who shares the same passion for giving beautiful pieces a new lease of life really brightened my morning.

Thank you, Vicki, for taking the time to say hello. You’ve definitely lifted my spirits today. ❤️

Here’s to supporting fellow small businesses and building connections within our local community.

Today’s workshop reality…

Went in determined to finish the beautiful green dressing table/desk.

Carefully measured.

Carefully marked.

Carefully drilled the cup handle holes.

Then stood back and realised I’d drilled them perfectly…

…upside down. 🙈

Some days the furniture wins.

Luckily mistakes can be fixed, coffee exists, and tomorrow is another day in the workshop.

Running a business isn’t about being perfect. It’s about finding a solution when things don’t go to plan.

Back to it! 💚

A day in the life of The Patchwork Umbrella… 🖤

Today has been one of those days where I’ve worn all the hats!

This morning was spent suit shopping with the eldest Patchwork for his prom next week (how did that happen so quickly?! 🥹). Then it was straight to the workshop for customer collections, a catch-up with some lovely customers, and squeezing in as much painting and sanding as possible between everything else.

The piece in the photos is slowly coming together, and even on the busiest days, getting a little time with a paintbrush in hand feels like a win.

Now it’s time to swap workshop clothes for something a little more presentable and head off to celebrate a family friend’s birthday. 🎉

Running a small business isn’t always glamorous—it’s a juggling act of family life, customers, creating, collecting, painting, sanding, and everything in between—but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Hope you’ve all had a lovely Saturday. ❤️

It’s amazing how often people underestimate what a woman can build on her own. The workshop doesn’t care what people say. The workshop speaks for itself.
Some people see a furniture business. I see 17 years of experience, determination and a dream I’m rebuilding one piece at a time.
