upholstery

"1. the padding, covering, etc, of a piece of furniture. 2. the business, work, or craft of upholstering"

If you have a well loved seat that dips in the middle, has stuffing hanging out or you just don't love the colour of the fabric any more, bring it to me for a new lease of life. I will take the chair apart and replace what is too old or worn to work properly.

Sometimes a chair needs stripping right back to the wooden frame and rebuilt, sometimes a change of top cover is all that is required.

Please get in touch with me and we can discuss the condition of your piece and your requirements.

You can see some examples of previous transformations on my portfolio page or follow me on instagram for work and inspirational images.

Deep buttoned banquette seat fitted this morning into Aimèe’s lovely kitchen 🩵

Been a bit quiet on insta of late but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been productive! #upholsterer #workshoplife #communityofcrafters

I made a leather and suede seat that looks a bit like a loaf 🥖

This little mid century desk chair has had a Christmas glow-up 🌟. That’s a wrap folks for me until the New Year. My family has had one illness after another since the end of November. We need a holiday! Wishing you all a peaceful, laughter-fil

Little re-cover job coming along nicely.

Regency sofa: layers of dusty fabric stripped off, re-upholstered traditionally in smart navy linen from Designers Guild, wood cleaned & polished, castor fixed. Customer wanted to replace the hair squab with something more comfortable, so we swap

TBT to the time I had the privilege of a behind the scenes tour of Versailles to look at the upholstery. Just beautiful. Real opulence. Also, I ❤️ Paris.

Finished off my little oval seat with a leather cover and decorative nails.

Spent the weekend @schoolofupholsteredfurniture, honing some skills and hanging out with a lovely bunch of upholsterers. Is there a collective name for upholsterers? #traditionalupholsteryskills #naturalmaterials
