Some of us spent last Wednesday working with the furniture repair students in the TAFE Outeach course.
Last week they made their seats comfy, and this week was the fun part - reusing a city of Sydney Street Banner to cover no less than 5 dining chairs - with plenty to spare!
The group learned how to stretch and place fabric coverings on dining chairs in preparation for 2 larger projects they've already started pulling apart. The fun part is seeing the diverse styles of chair coming from one piece of fabric - An awesome result of reuse in action!
Next term we'll be looking at repairing and re-finishing the dining chairs that match these seat pads.
But for now, just for fun, we're pulling apart 2 armchairs to see how they work. These 2, like the suite of dining chairs, will be a team project, and we're looking forward to seeing what they come up with!
