Upholstery & Furniture Painting Upcycle Workshop
Looking to transform that old, tired piece of furniture into something fresh, functional, and full of character?
In this immersive workshop, you’ll get a fantastic introduction to:
- Furniture Prepping & Painting: Learn the essentials of surface prep, creative painting techniques, and finishing to bring out the best in your piece.
- Upholstery Basics: Discover the art of stripping, reupholstering, and covering a piece of furniture, along with making custom trim to finish it perfectly.
There will be live demonstrations and step-by-step guidance from both Sonja and Claire, ensuring you feel confident in your skills and equipped with the knowledge to tackle future projects at home.
What’s included:
Uptown Junk will provide all the tools and materials required to upholster and paint your piece, along with lots of food, refreshments and joviality for the day! If you don’t have a piece, don’t worry we can provide one for you at an extra cost but you would need to let us know at least 14 days before.
What you need to bring:
All you need to bring is a small piece of furniture (eg, an occasional chair, dining chair, footstool, telephone table seat), along with a top fabric and trim of your choice. Please note if you wish to learn to make piping trim then please allow extra top fabric or bring some contrasting fabric with you.
