Description
So, you have a family heirloom chair that you’ve always wanted to restore to its former glory, or perhaps even picked one up at your neighbour’s garage sale, or a sneaky nature-strip find? Well this course might just be for you. Our “Chair Amnesty” upholstery course allows you to learn traditional upholstery skills in a social & positive atmosphere. Your upholstress, Jen, will guide you through the process of completely stripping & rebuilding your chair using traditional upholstery skills.
Not all chairs are suitable for this course given it is based on traditional spring based techniques. Prior to booking, please email a snap of your chair so that we can confirm it is suitable for the course.
We do also stock a variety of suitable chairs for this course that are available for purchase. Let me know if you would like more details on these.
You will learn
In this course, you will be learning a variety of traditional upholstery skills, tips & tricks, and hopefully a love of the craft. With three days to work through your project, you will learn how to fully strip, rebuild and cover your chair. Our aim is to arm you with enough knowledge & confidence to continue your skills at home. We truly hope that you will be inspired to join our mission to save the world, one chair at a time.
