About Creature Comforts Upholstery

Family-rooted craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and upholstery made with care.

A Business Built on Skill, Family and Care

Creature Comforts Upholstery is built on practical skill, creativity and a genuine love of handmade work.

Our journey began with a mother who taught the value of learning practical skills from a young age. What started as a hobby has grown into a thriving business built on family, tradition and craftsmanship.

Everything we create reflects that blend of inherited knowledge and a fresh, modern eye for interiors. From reupholstered furniture to bespoke soft furnishings, every piece is made with close attention to detail and a strong focus on quality.

We believe handmade work carries a warmth and character that mass-produced items simply cannot match, and we love helping our customers bring their ideas to life.

Our Story

At the heart of Creature Comforts Upholstery is a simple belief: beautiful, practical interiors should be made with care and tailored to the people who live with them.

We work closely with customers to create bespoke pieces that feel personal, whether that means reviving a much-loved chair, making made-to-measure curtains and blinds, or adding the finishing touches with cushions, lampshades and other soft furnishings.

As the business has grown, the values behind it have stayed the same — respect for craftsmanship, pride in quality, and the desire to create something special for every home.
