Frequently asked questions

Every item at Nik Nak Anew is painted and finished by hand with love and attention to detail. Here are answers to common questions regarding delivery across North Devon, furniture care, and our ordering process.

How do I purchase or enquire about an available piece?

To enquire about any ready-made piece or check current availability and pricing, simply send a message via my contact details. I will confirm whether the item is still available and help arrange collection or delivery.

Where are you based and can I collect in person?

I am based in Barnstaple, North Devon. In-person collection is always welcome by appointment. I love to meet the people I transform items for. I will carefully prep and wrap your piece so it is ready for safe transport in your vehicle.

Do you offer local delivery in North Devon?

Yes, I offer local delivery throughout Barnstaple and surrounding North Devon areas. Delivery fees depend on distance and piece size. Please provide your postcode when enquiring so we can provide an accurate quote.

Can you arrange nationwide UK delivery?

Not currently - Maybe in the future! 

How should I clean and care for hand-painted furniture?

I recommend wiping surfaces gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, abrasive sponges, and excessive moisture. Using coasters, placemats, and felt pads under ornaments will help preserve the painted finish for years to come.

How durable is the finish on upcycled furniture?

All of my pieces are thoroughly cleaned, primed, hand-painted, and sealed with high-quality durable topcoats or specialist waxes. While sturdy for everyday living, vintage hand-painted furniture appreciates a little gentle handling to stay looking its best.

Can I request a custom makeover for my own furniture?

Absolutely! I love transforming cherished or tired items into bespoke statement pieces. Please visit my Bespoke Commissions page to learn all about how the custom design process works and how to request a quote.

Where can I read what other customers think of your work?

You can read genuine feedback and experiences from my clients on my Customer Reviews page to see how I have given old, dated pieces a fabulous new lease of life.
