Can you believe it? NP Soft Furnishings is officially one year old, and it’s all thanks to your support and trust in us! 

What a fantastic journey it’s been… filled with memorable projects, loyal customers and incredible growth.  

Over the past year, we’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with some truly wonderful clients, including: 

  • House of Hackney: Crafting custom soft furnishings for their upcoming Spring/Summer 2025 shoot. 
  • The White Hart: Enhancing their interiors with luxurious, bespoke pieces. 
  • Cann Orchard: Creating warm, tailored furnishings that bring this beautiful space to life. 

We’re also excited to share that we’re now an approved procurement business with the local authority!

 We couldn’t have reached this milestone without you, our incredible clients and friends. Your support, inspiration and feedback have been invaluable, and we look forward to many more years of transforming spaces into cosy, stylish havens with you! 

What’s hot right now:

Contemporary colonial chic

Want to create a contemporary colonial vibe at home? Here’s how to capture that timeless charm with ease.

Give your farmhouse style an instant upgrade by blending classic colonial elements, like crisp plantation shutters and tropical foliage, with soft British-inspired textiles. And you don’t need to have an orangery to create this look either. You can still bring it to life with a few thoughtful touches. 

Here are our “must-haves” to achieve that chic, contemporary colonial look: 

  • Plantation shutters: Add structure and style with clean, classic lines that instantly elevate any room. 
  • Oversized rugs: Create warmth underfoot and anchor your space with rich, textured layers. 
  • Bold, elegant foliage: Tropical plants bring natural beauty and a lush, vibrant feel. Check out Nook Houseplants  for unique plant styling tips.  
  • Soft window seats: Embrace comfort and charm with cosy nooks for reading and relaxing.  
  • British-inspired fabrics: Meg Morton’s soft furnishings offer the perfect counterpoint to shutters, adding a quintessentially British touch that feels both elegant and inviting. 

Pre-loved marketplace coming soon! 

We’re thrilled to announce our plans to launch a pre-loved marketplace on Facebook, and we can’t wait for you to be a part of this sustainability journey, offering reclaimed soft furnishings and upcycled small furniture pieces.

Spotlight on repurposing
