Upholstery
Join experienced upholsterer Mark Swain from The Little Furniture Shop for a day working on your own project. Mark will be on hand with expert guidance to help you revive your chair, stool or other portable piece of furniture.
There will be tools to borrow and a variety of sundry items like webbing and tacks available to buy for cash on the day, but please bring along your own furniture, stuffing and fabric, and any tools you are already using. By the end of the day you will have moved your project forwards and learned some new upholstery tips and techniques.
You don't need any previous upholstery experience - all levels are welcome. Please note that it may take several sessions to complete more complicated projects and that we will need advance notice of the item that you are bringing.
A light lunch and refreshments are included in the workshop fee.
