Furniture Restoration & Repair

Give old furniture a new lease of life in our practical Furniture Restoration and Repair workshop. Designed for beginners, this hands-on session will introduce you to simple techniques for assessing, repairing and refreshing everyday furniture, helping you build the confidence to tackle small restoration projects at home. You’ll learn how to identify common issues, choose the right tools and materials, make basic repairs and improve the appearance and function of tired or damaged pieces. Along the way, we’ll share useful tips on preparation, safe tool use and how to decide when something can be repaired rather than replaced. This workshop is ideal for anyone interested in saving money, learning practical DIY skills and making more sustainable choices. No previous experience is needed, and all tools and materials will be provided. You’ll leave with useful knowledge, new skills and a better understanding of how to keep furniture in use for longer instead of sending it to waste, wherever possible, with confidence.
