In with the old

In with the old —

Vintage furniture embodies strong, old bones, rich histories and exquisite craftsmanship from another time - each one holding a story worth preserving. Every chair, sofa or loveseat that comes through Atelier Hopkins has its own little tale.

With steady hands, sharp eyes and plenty of creativity, we bring pieces back to life in ways that surprise and delight. It’s about turning the everyday into something special and re-loved.

In the end, our passion and purpose is simple: 
in with the old, a motto that guides every stitch and inspires every transformation.

FROM OUR CLIENTS

“Atelier Hopkins  did a wonderful job on the pieces for the Cafe Three Pines. Jennifer Hopkins was helpful, responsive, fast, and the pieces turned out brilliantly! So much so I am having her recover more pieces for my personal home. We are so fortunate to have Jennifer in our area. She can even source wonderful fabrics. She is my go-to!”

“Jennifer Hopkins’ work is impeccable. She beautifully reupholstered several well‑loved pieces, including sofas, chairs and ottomans, making them look even better than when they were new, and created cushions and pillows that were perfect for our space. Her craftsmanship is superb, her eye for fabric exceptional, and her creativity truly inspiring (check out her bags). Working with Jennifer was a pleasure, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly.”
