The different types of materials used in modern upholstery

A step-by-step guide to upholstering a footstool or ottoman

Confidence to complete upholstery projects on your own

One 45 x 30 cm footstool frame (with a choice of two leg styles)

All tools and core materials needed during the workshop

Expert, hands-on tuition in a small group setting

Your finished footstool to take home


Please Note:

You will need to bring your own upholstery fabric. If you’re unable to source fabric, we do have a small selection available for purchase starting at £20.


Additional Information:

This workshop is for participants aged 18 and over

Please wear closed-toe shoes and clothing you don’t mind getting dusty or stained
