Celebrating one year of running Upholstery workshops at Semper Hopkins Upholstery and Interiors

It has been 12 months now since we first ran our in person upholstery workshops here at Semper Hopkins - and what a year it has been! From starting with our Storage crate then introducing our Stool and Bench workshops later in 2021,  and now our footstools and deep buttoned workshops… we have come a long way in so little time!

2022 The year of doing the things I love, and the year I turn 40….

Where has 2022 gone? We are already at the end of March. This year marks a big milestone birthday for me. I turn 40 on the 21st April, very luck to share the same birthday as the Queen. At the beginning of the year I had considered writing up 40 things I wanted to do when I turn 40, but that seemed like a daunting task to think of 40 things and it takes precious time, so here I am just going along with it and doing it. My motto for 2022 was to do more things that make me happy, and doing less planning is one of them!

Design and make a piece of furniture for your home with Semper Hopkins

Do you find yourself constantly browsing the internet or Pinterest looking for interior inspiration or new furniture ideas? I am exactly the same.

International day of happiness – do more things that make you happy!

International Day of Happiness is on 20th March 2022 and takes place across the UN and its focus is build back happier and make peoples wellbeing a top priority. As we will all know, with how things have been the last two years, this day of happiness might not have always been the ‘happiest’. It was much harder to do things which made us happy last year with the UK being in lockdown, not being able to see those we love and not being able to do day to day activities we once, perhaps, took for granted!

Making Time For Mum…

Making time for yourself as a mother is one of the most important things you can do as part as self-care. Of course, keeping busy and looking after your children will be a main priority, and your work if that applies.

Our Story

How did Semper Hopkins begin? Many years ago, I started learning upholstery so I could create furniture for my own home. In 2013 we carried out a huge renovation on our home, which had gone massively over budget and we had run out of money to…

Upholstery Is For Everyone…

You might think an upholstery workshop at Semper Hopkins Upholstery Interiors is only suitable for those looking to learn a new skill but you are wrong, it is so much more.

Rocking new life into your rocking chair!

Do you have an old rocking chair that’s been in the family for years, it holds many memories for you but is now worn? It’s miserably sat outside in the garage or shed because you can no longer use it and you don’t know where to start with the restoration...
