ONE-DAY COURSES FOR BEGINNERS AT

Learn Furniture Upholstery
An Introduction

Workshop location: The Makery, Bath

NB - at present the Makery are not offering upholstery courses, but please contact them directly if you wish to book another, creative course

This popular furniture upholstery workshop at The Makery in Bath will give you an introduction to upholstery techniques, to revive tired furniture with beautiful fabrics. Nicky will guide you through the upholstery process.

You’ll need to bring along one small, portable piece of furniture to upholster; a dining chair, ottoman or stool are all perfect. Please don't bring anything too large as we have limited time & want you to get as much done as possible in your introduction to Upholstery workshop!

You will also need to bring a piece of fabric to upholstery with. Please call/email if you have any questions about what to bring. We strongly advise you to strip down your furniture of existing fabric prior to the workshop to maximise your time here and ensure your best chance of finishing your project. Please be aware that not all people finish on the day though - it really depends on the furniture you choose to bring.
