Show and Tell..


Hooray~~, I finished it.. oh. yes. I did.. It took me 6 weeks of 2hours of hard working.. My old chair is now wearing a haute couture..






Profile..



Back..



My working space at uphostery school.






My teacher is showing me what to do..

I have to tell you about Mr. Guido.. He is amazing, Master Uphosterer from Italy. He started his career when he was 15 years old. He is 70 years old now so do the math, yes, 65 years that how long he's been in same business. Actually Mr. Guido is a teacher of my current teachter Mr. Rob who was absent on the day I was finishing off my project. I was so honor to get tricks of trade from the Master. Lucky me..


My next project.. My DH's super, mega old Arm Chair..
