Overview

Tired of looking at the ugly milk crate you use as a chair? Now is your chance to learn how to upholster those undesirable pieces of furniture, making them cute and comfortable in the process. Work-Shop is offering a DIY Upholstery class taught by Maaike, owner of Furniture Resurrection. The class is designed to give you the basics of upholstering so you can start turning dull and worn-down pieces of furniture into statement-making decor.

Maaike founded Furniture Resurrection in 2009, combining her creativity with her love of hands-on work. Resurrected furniture is available for sale through her Darlinghurst shop. If you have furniture that you would rather refurbish, she also takes commissions to restore pieces.

If you particularly favour a certain fabric pattern, make sure to bring it to the class. Tools, baseboards, and some fabric materials will be provided.
