Unless you are a fan of the pared-back, bare minimum style, there’s bound to a place in your home for a little artistic flair, here and there. Of course, we’re not all blessed with the creative skill to create our own art pieces, but with Houzz you can find plenty of artists, craftsmen, potters and painters that are. If you’re planning a complete house or room renovation, it’s a wise idea to talk to an artist or craftsman before you begin so that your artistic designs will fit seamlessly with the rest of your decor, furniture and layout. Otherwise, you could be in a position of throwing any pieces of art that you have up on the wall that won’t fit with the design, or spending an age trying to find the right piece that perfectly matches the tones and space that you have.

“Carlo microcemented two shower enclosures and a cloakroom floor for us. He did a brilliant job and we're absolutely thrilled with the results. He was always on time, polite, professional and friendly. We can totally recommend his skills and enthusiasm!”

Christine Harrison Fine Art and Mosaics

Artists and Craftsmen

7 April 2016

“I have commissioned Christine for a family portrait and am extremely happy with the results. It hangs pride of place in our sitting room! She captured all of us beautifully and was very accommodating about minor changes (removing my daughter's braces) and very helpful in presenting different styles. She was very easy to communicate with and worked hard to determine exactly what I wanted. This was a gift for my husband's 40th birthday and it moved him to tears it was so lovely. I chose Christine because I had asked her to paint some art for my bedroom and she did this quickly and beautifully capturing exactly what I wanted. Although this triptych wasn't as demanding as the portrait I am extremely happy with the work. I have two other of Christine's paintings in my home as well. All of her own work is evocative and she is gifted in using may different mediums and styles. She even gave me advice in when hanging them.”

RD Glass

“I commissioned a larger, adapted version of a glass bowl in Roxanne's range, and eight glass coasters of two completely new designs I wanted, all by email. Total cost was £140. She responded quickly in all communicatons, from general enquiry to detail to final design, with suggestions and advice. She was professional, helpful and friendly, and kept me informed at all stages of the process right up to delivery tracking. The products are of high quality and look beautiful - the colours are so vivid and satisfying. The bowl is a lovely centrepiece on its own without anything on it. Really recommend RD Glass - we saw her work first at a local arts and crafts fair and liked it immediately and bought a blue/green glass bowl. You can't beat individually produced artwork by independent craftspeople.”

The Mosaic Studio

Artists and Craftsmen

3 August 2018

“We have found the Mosaic Studio to be an absolute pleasure, truly inspiring, full of creative ideas and enthusiasm. Our project was well managed from the initial brief and quoting stage, through to visuals and installation. The process was so enjoyable to see, and the results are unique and astounding. We look forward to working with Paul and the team again in the future and cannot recommend them highly enough.”

“I commissioned a bespoke table and was very satisfied with the not only the item but the design and consultation of my requirements. Would recommend.”

“Ben did a marvellous restoration job on a set of antique table legs (see photos) left to us by an elderly relative. The original table top was a large antique Cairoware brass tray,which simply rested on the legs, but given that this isn't the most stable arrangement when there are kids around, we asked him to make a recessed top for the table to match the legs, for the tray to sit in. He managed to source a lovely piece of timber, and colour-match it with the newly restored legs, so now it looks as though our table was designed that way. We now have a lovely family heirloom that we can actually use! Highly recommended.”

“Bought a custom made stainless steel window from Macmade. The window is better than I expected. I’m really pleased with it. Macmade did a great job. It took slightly longer to get than I expected but if I had ordered a standard Crittal window the lead time was 16 weeks and Macmade was able to get it to me within 12 weeks. All in all really pleased with the job.”

“Sarah painted murals - one in each of my children's bedrooms. She carefully listened to the brief and we now have images that are beautifully tailored to each of their dreams and personalities. My children are over the moon with the result and it also did a massive amount to help them feel at ease in a new house. They still all feel immensely proud of their rooms. Thank you Sarah, will definitely use your talents again.”

Rise Art

Artists and Craftsmen

5 October 2015

“I used Rise Art to help me fill my flat with art work. I found that Rise have a huge range of incredible artwork for sale and you can even rent if you are not sure that a particular piece is for you (great for someone fussy and clueless about art like me!). Rise helped to make the art world accessible to someone for whom this was all a complete mystery! The service is slick and delivery is hassle free and I found that the team there are really knowledgeable and helpful. I'd have no hesitation recommending Rise Art to friends and have already done so.”

Modern Home Solutions

“At all stages of the project Rob and the team delivered. From initial consultation to final execution they were excellent. Some of the spaces they were working in, ensuite bathrooms and a changing room, were very small and intricate. The final result has been much admired and Rob spared nothing to ensure even details outside the brief were completed.”

For which types of work would I need artists or craftsmen?

From the small to the large, the intricate to the bold, there’s a skilled artisan or craftsman that can create and supply you with beautiful artistic features to fit with your designs. If you’re after a standard, framed painting, then you can find all sorts of artists who create landscape, still life, modern, portrait or even pop art. Or you can find artists that will create more unusual wall designs and murals, paint furniture or even floors and ceilings for you. Even the essential items, like plates, bowls, tiles, splashbacks, lampshades and headboards, can be handcrafted, painted or designed by potters and artists to give your everyday life that extra decorative flourish.

If you’re struggling to find the right crockery to fit in your kitchen or the perfect vase to use as a centrepiece on your dining room table, then you could turn to a potter. Potters can handcraft bowls, plates, vases and all sorts of other ceramic items for your home and finish them in a style that suits you – painted, patterned, glazed or white-washed. Take a look at their current style and decide whether a potter could produce items for your home that you’ll fall in love with.

It’s always fun to try your hand at a bit of arts and crafts, but there are definitely some crafts that are best left to the professional potters, craftsmen and artists. Glass, sculpture and ceramic artists will be experienced workers who have honed their craft for many years, so if you are looking for a stained glass door panel, a garden sculpture or a set of beautifully-crafted vases, then it’s time to turn to a professional craftsman, artist or potter. Why not think outside the box, too, and consider a metalwork wine rack or a metal, one-of-a-kind wall clock? Even very specialist craftsmen such as blacksmiths can be found on Houzz, so no matter how outside-the-box you think, your designs could come to life. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of artists & artisans: Interior Designers, Specialist Contractors, Lighting, Carpenters & Joiners.
