About Melody Maison

Who Are We?

Melody Maison was born in 2006 in a spare bedroom in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, when our founder and director Anna Elkington set out to bring beautiful, affordable home décor to life.
What started as a small idea has grown into the Melody Maison you know and love today - a leading UK retailer of painted furniture, French-inspired interiors, shabby chic décor, country-style home furnishings, and unique gifts.

Today, we’re proud to be a team of 44, still headed by Anna, who remains our chief buyer and creative heartbeat. We’ve grown into a friendly, family-style business with a shared passion for:

  • Incredible customer service

  • Beautiful, affordable interiors

  • All things French, vintage, shabby chic, rustic, and elegant

Whether you’re furnishing an entire home or simply adding the finishing touches, our team works hard to bring you timeless pieces, carefully sourced or designed exclusively for Melody Maison.
