What can you buy for someone that has everything this Christmas? Why not treat them to an Upholstery Workshop experience.

If your loved one is anything like me, they will probably buy whatever they want there and then. This can make it much more difficult for loved ones to try and find them a gift they will want or make use of, come the festive period. In our house, we choose to save Christmas present money and put it towards things such as holidays in the New Year...

Choosing sustainably this year…

As we all know, with Christmas comes a lot of waste. Do you find you buy the same type of present for the same person every year? And know it doesn’t really get used? From personal experience I know getting gifted things such as slippers or scarves, as nice as they are, I just don’t make use of them! This is a waste of money...

Struggling for fabric inspiration for your dining chair makeover?

Choosing a fabric to upholster your dining chairs in can be a difficult decision, especially with so many options to choose from. Not only do we help our clients with the design process of the upholstery, but also mainly with fabric choices. We know that durability and practicality can also be major decision contributors when considering fabrics- not just appearance.

There’s a reason why we need your dining table furniture order in by September

With our furniture being bespoke and handmade, the creating process takes slightly longer than if you buy from the high street. There are many processes which our tables go through before being delivered to your door, and we want to make sure you avoid any disappointment and have your dining table with you by the festive period. Christmas is only around the corner so why not get in touch and make sure you have the perfect family dining table to celebrate around after a not so normal Christmas last year!

Choosing a fabric for your upholstery crate can be difficult, especially when there are so many options available. There are various different aspects to choose from such as the pattern, colour and texture of the fabric. We thought it would be useful to share some fabric inspiration and how these have been used by our upholstery workshop clients in situ.
