This little cutie was a fun job to do. The last pic is how it arrived. Looks similar but the springs were floating around inside and the fabric had worn away at the corners. It was looking tired and was not a comfortable seat!
My client sourced the exact same liberty cotton to recover it, which was lovely to work with. I stripped everything out and re webbed the base, lashed the springs into place and used rubberised coir and felt to make a comfortable seat and back. No foam in this one!

If you've got a chair you've been wanting to get made over, give me a shout. I have a few spots left this side of Christmas 😊

A fresh new cane seat finished this week. I powered through this by lining up asany podcasts as possible and recording myself overhead so I couldn't get distracted. I accidentally headbutted the phone several times and cut my finger quite badly but its looking very lovely (the chair that is, my finger is awful!).

I love a cane commission, I've not had one in a while. A nice palette cleanser before more huge cushions!

Wish it was this fast in real life! My first time lapse- might need to try and keep the camera steady next time. Ploughing through this seat today- 5 podcasts in by lunchtime 🫠

August:
Car seats, b**r festival, several workshops with lovely people, making lovely things, annual day out to the fringe, 6 shows, took zero pics, an avalanche of admin, also not pictured, Creative mornings at the hidden garden, leather panel replacement, new ercol mattress and cushion covers, London to see Schaparelli, Japanese lacquer, the design museum, the Oresteia, Titanique, V&A storehouse (it's amazing), swimming, long train journeys and a lot of rain.
September is going to be busy. And I'm opening the studio alongside lots of my neighbours on the 19th of September for Doors open day. Stick it in your diary, there will be lots to see in the east end!

This child's rocking chair was such a joy to reupholster. Stripped it right back and replaced the flat and worn felt padding with some rubberised coir and new felt. Cleaned and refreshed the woodwork and then finished it off with beautiful Linwood Fabric which really livened it up.

And its so small it fit on a shelf out of the way before it was picked up. Ideal!

It's always lovely working on pieces of furniture with sentimental value. This chair has been sat on by at least 3 generations of the same family and will hopefully go on to be used by many more.

Some spots left on some of the workshop days. If you've got a piece of furniture you've been wanting to transform but are unsure where to start then this is the workshop for you. No experience necessary and you will be provided with all the tools to strip and recover your furniture! These are the final dates for a while, hoping to organise more in the Autumn.

This made to match pair looked very different before. The chair is a lovely cintique that has had a long life and was in need of a freshen up. The footstool looked completely different before but my client wanted to change it up and decided on a deep button finish which really transforms it!
Both covered in Warwick Fabrics UK eco splash, these will last for many more decades and have become a cute matching set 💙

Another beautiful transformation from a one to one upholstery workshop. Arla from Arla Kean did a couple of one to one days with me where she completely transformed this tub chair. It had been attacked heavily on one side by cats and was needing a bit of a revamp. We replaced the crumbling foam and she chose these velvets to brighten it up. This one involved lots of tailoring and sewing, and a lot of fit checks before fully attaching the cover. Lots of work but she's done an amazing job!

If you want to try your hand at upholstery and have a project you would like help with, I'm running small group workshops over the summer. There is still a spot left for this Sunday - DM me for more details or take a look at my website 🙂
