Big up to Sarah Broadfield & Lucy Adams - such a well deserved drink at the end - roll on the next one!! X

Long story…

Believe it or not, I bought these chairs back in 2022 from a lovely lady who was clearing her parents home. Not knowing what to do with them, she listed them on eBay.

Fast forward until today and they have finally returned back to her. When she realised we were an upholstery shop, she bought them back and commissioned us to restore them.

I can’t wait to hear what her 91 year old Dad thinks of them when he sees them again in their new garb, he’s owned them since new and thought they were gone forever.

I don’t think they were ever meant to leave the family 🫶🏼

A beautiful set of His & Her’s Victorian Parlour chairs that would have been part of a full suite of furniture in its day. Freshly reupholstered in an opulent Green Velvet - don’t they look swell…

The G Plan Blofeld Model 62 Chair - ‘The world most comfortable chair’ and one of my favourites! 🤘🏻

It’s always a treat to see your work in its beautiful home. This is the last chair to make up the ‘suite’ for the lovely Cleo & James… and what a chair to finish on 👊🏻 Upholstered in Omega Velvet in Grass, it’s absolutely stunning and very very comfortable! 💚

This little monkey had three layers of old fabric on from previous lives 🫣

But ooh doesn’t it look swell now 🧡

You’d make my day if you could spare a few quid to help me raise £300 for The Christie. I have just FOUR week until the Great Manchester Run 10k - best get training! 🏃 xx

Catherine's fundraiser for THE CHRISTIE CHARITY Help Catherine Morris raise money to support THE CHRISTIE CHARITY

My longest job to date! 6 meters of backdrop 📸 🙌

I’m beginning to see a trend! …

Remember these? The salvaged Golden Lily ‘William Morris’ vintage curtain fabric..

What a transformation it’s made to this these beautiful French Style Chairs.

I wouldn’t overly recommended using curtain fabric for upholstery, due to durability. However this fabric had a good weight to it and the chairs will endure very light use - so why not use something you’ve saved to create something beautiful 🤩

Love how this turned out What a dining space, it looks amazing! 🧡

A Morris Chair is an early type of reclining chair. The design was adapted by William Morris’s firm, Morris & Company, from a prototype owned by Ephraim Colman in rural Sussex, England. It was first marketed around 1866.

What a pleasure to work on, I think it suits its new velvet upholstery 💙

Same colour but better 💥

A little chair that’s been handed down through the generation’s. Reupholstered in a modern weave by in Butterscotch, perfect for current day interiors.

The lighter fabric greatly improves the overall look and sets off the bobbin detail perfectly 👌
