Upcycle Like a Pro: Furniture Upcycling Workshop for Beginners

Tired of seeing beautiful furniture go to waste? Discover the magic of upcycling! In this beginner-friendly workshop, you’ll learn the basics of transforming old furniture into something fresh and modern. No experience needed—just bring your creativity and we'll provide everything else. Leave with the ability to make a stunning, one-of-a-kind creation and a newfound love for sustainable living.

What you will learn

We work in a small group, so the session will be tailored to your skill level and experience. In general, you will work on a small item, such as a chair, stool or side table. All furniture, tools & materials are supplied.

This workshop is for 18+ only.

We provide the required PPE, but please make sure to wear closed shoes and old clothes that you don't mind getting very dusty & dirty and perhaps stained or marked.

Please keep in mind, that this workshop can be quite physically demanding. If you think you may need a bit of support with that, please let us know before you book your ticket and we can discuss with you, how we can best adjust the workshop to suit you.

The session will cover the following:

  • An understanding of the upcycling process
  • Cleaning
  • Sanding
  • Painting
  • Correct tool usage

Check out below some projects that have been completed in previous workshops!

Please note: if you would like to purchase the item you have worked on, you will be given a discount off of the purchase price. If you are interested in purchasing a workshop item, please contact us prior to the workshop.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need any prior experience?

Not at all. This workshop is specifically designed for beginners. We’ll guide you step-by-step in a friendly, non-judgemental environment.

Will I take the item home with me?

No, but you will take the skills and confidence to take on similar projects at home

What should I wear?

Please wear closed-toe shoes and clothes you don’t mind getting dusty, dirty, or possibly paint-marked. We’ll provide PPE (gloves, goggles, dust masks) where needed.

Is everything provided?

Yes — all tools, materials, fixings, and safety equipment are included in your ticket price. We’ll also have tea and coffee on hand to keep you going.

Is the workshop physically demanding?

There are some physical elements like sanding and moving the furniture. If you have any concerns or accessibility needs, please contact us before booking and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.

Can I book with a friend?

Absolutely — you’re welcome to come with a friend. Each person will need their own ticket so everyone has access to tools, materials, and support.

What if I've never touched a paint brush in my life?

Perfect — this workshop is made for you. We’re here to make sure you leave feeling confident, capable, and inspired to take on your own projects.

Is the venue accessible?
