Furniture Flips

At Viva Vintage Creations, we use inspiration visuals to show our pieces in context — highlighting their character, versatility, and the beauty of how vintage furniture lives within a home. These visuals are meant to inspire, not dictate, allowing you to imagine each piece in your own space.

Fabulous Technique

I have known Michelle for many years; we have worked together. I was looking to have my dining room set redone, it was 35 years old, and I had heard about Michelle’s work. I gave her a call and explained what I wanted done with my furniture. We met, and she explained what she could do with it and gave me many choices. I agreed and let her go at it. My set came out fabulous. I highly recommend her. ~ D.R.

 

Perfect Finishing

Michelle refinished a coffee table and two end tables for me. She helped me decide on the finish, and they turned out beautifully. Everyone thought I had bought new tables!
She was so pleasant and helpful to deal with, and very efficient. The tables were ready for pickup on the exact date she promised. I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting their furniture to look like new. ~L.B.

Touching Tributes

I am very pleased with the flower arrangement that Michelle created for my wife’s celebration of life. It was very elegant and heartfelt. The colours she used were my wife’s favourites, and it was clear the arrangement was made with great care. Thank you for your expertise, Michelle. ~H.W.

Elegant Tributes

I recently had a monument saddle created for my parents. Every detail was handled with such care and respect, and the arrangement is not only elegant but truly captures the love and memory of my mom and dad. I am so grateful for the quality and compassion she put into it. I highly recommend Michelle’s work to anyone wanting a beautiful and heartfelt memorial piece.~ L.Z,

Timeless Treasurers

Michelle refinished an antique makeup table that belonged to my mother. I reached out to her knowing the quality of her work and the attention to detail she brings. She brought out the beauty of the wood and added some antique detailing to an already beautiful piece. Michelle was very easy to work with, and I trusted her opinions on what would look best. I would definitely work with her again and recommend her to others. ~L.L.

She always suggests little touches that I would never think of, and they always make such a difference in the end. Communication is easy, and she always has your best interests at heart. She considers your likes and dislikes while offering suggestions for what might look even better. I highly recommend her work—very professional and accommodating! ~W.E.
