Today’s guest has an eye for colour, bold details, and a natural flare for finding the best furniture to refinish.

With a background in fine art studies, she turns her painted pieces into functional artwork. She’s appeared in numerous magazines, collaborated with top-name brands and is one of the designers on the TV program ‘Money for Nothing’.

With her new book “Better than new” just launched yesterday I am very excited to talk all things furniture painting with Chloe Kempster.
