It was the completion of two house renovations and a new home build which began a love of interior design for Tanya Maich.
This sparked a passion for transforming furniture and household items to fit in with the décor, which then lead the former teacher and mother of two pre-schoolers to discover Chalk Paint™ by Annie Sloan. From there evolved her business Rekindled Love Furniture.
Tanya purchased her first tin of Chalk Paint™ by Annie Sloan in 2013 and instantly fell in love.
"I loved how you could take something ordinary and make it look extraordinary or bring out the hidden detail and interest on a piece simply by painting with Chalk Paint™ by Annie Sloan and finishing it with a quick wax. The best part of all of is that there is generally no need to sand or prep before painting. So together, the ease of use and amazing outcome, not to mention the compliments from guests, inspired me to do more and then turn this into a business, inspiring others to do the same."
Tanya ran workshops for a year before she made it a business in February this year.
