About Us

The Quirky Magpie is run by me, Lorraine.

I have a background in art and interior design and I love finding treasures - new, vintage and locally made.

I believe that home decor can influence everything from mood to productivity, and even your confidence.

The Quirky Magpie can help you to incorporate furniture, decor, art or anything that tells your story, into your home.

With a huge variety of gorgeous and unique pieces you will be sure to find something to brighten up your home or gift to the special people in your life.
