• Bespoke Upholstery: I reupholster & transform a wide range of pieces—from dining chairs and occasional armchairs to footstools, ottomans, window seating, and headboards. * I don’t do sofas *

• Handmade & Traditional Lampshades: I offer custom lampshade making and recovering services, creating everything from classic hand-stitched traditional shades to modern drum lampshades tailored to match your home decor.

• Creative Workshops: I host hands-on workshops (such as our popular lampshade-making classes) for individuals, private groups & team-building events where you can learn new skills & create your own home accessories.

Re-upholstery isn't necessarily a cheaper alternative to buying off-the-shelf, mass-produced furniture; instead, it's a bespoke, investment choice!

When you choose re-upholstery, you’re investing in hand craftsmanship, custom design & preserving a high-quality frame that was built to last. Rather than buying a throwaway piece, you get to completely tailor your furniture to your home, choosing your exact fabric, foam firmness & personal finish—to turn a well-loved item into a unique statement piece you'll cherish for years to come.

In most cases, yes! Older or vintage pieces often have solid hardwood frames and superior craftsmanship that you just can't find in modern mass-produced furniture. Re-upholstery is a sustainable option & keeps quality furniture out of landfill & lets you create a unique statement piece.

If you're ever unsure about the condition of your frame, send me a photo - I’m always happy to offer an honest opinion!

Getting a quote is quick and easy! Simply send a few clear photos of your chair or project (showing the front, sides, include approx measurements & any specific areas needing extra care &attention) along with a brief description of what you’d like done.

You can email, send a message via WhatsApp, or complete my website form. Once I review your photos, I’ll get back to you with an estimated cost and fabric requirements.

Finding the right fabric is one of the most exciting parts of the project! The best choice really depends on how your furniture is used in your home.

For high-traffic pieces-like everyday dining chairs or the favourite family armchair-durable, stain-resistant fabrics work wonders. If it's a statement piece that gets a bit less use, you can go with something a little more delicate like a soft velvet or linen.

Don't worry about the technical side either! In accordance with UK furniture safety regulations, domestic upholstery fabrics need to comply with fire retardancy standards - I’ll happily guide you through all of that when choosing your fabric so your piece is as safe as it is beautiful.

Lead times vary throughout the year depending on current workload & seasonality.

I can provide an estimated timeline for each project upon inquiry.

* If you would like your dining chairs revamped in time for the festive season, I suggest booking around August. Likewise, if you want your summer patio furniture refreshed & ready for the warmer days, the winter months are the ideal time to get booked into my workshop schedule.

Yes, to confirm your upholstery project slot, I require a deposit upon booking, this allows me to order your fabric, bespoke foam order and other specialist sundries. The remaining balance is payable upon completion or before collection / delivery of your finished piece.

Yes, I offer a collection & delivery service for your furniture, every journey is different, availability & pricing depends on the distance from my workshop. Please get in touch with your postcode when requesting a quote and I’ll be happy to provide the details & costs involved.
