Welcome back, Bunty’s Paints!
It was a sad day when Bunty’s ceased trading in August 2023.
Now reborn under new ownership, Bunty’s is back, and I am delighted to be one of the first stockists 😊
The initial range comprises 36 beautiful paint colours as well as the lacquers in satin and dead flat finish.
Discover the new palette and fall in love with Bunty all over again.
I am delighted to announce that I am now an official stockist of the GILD range of gilding enamels from Guild Lane

Visit me
I'd love to welcome you into my studio at Humble Bee View, a light warm and airy space set in a beautiful rural location near the pretty village of Brailsford in Derbyshire.
There you will be able to view the range of furniture paints and other products that I stock, and I'll be happy to advise you and answer any questions you may have.
You can also see all my furniture — not only the painted pieces but also those that are waiting to be transformed.
I suggest that you give me a call beforehand to make sure I'm going to be in — and to give me time to put the kettle on :-)
I am a proud member of TFAC.
