UPDATE

This September brings a new start for me as I begin Teacher Training on Monday. πŸ“š
It’s an exciting opportunity for me to challenge different parts of my brain and learn new skills.

Don’t worry this is by no means the end for Emily Thwaites Upholstery! βœ‚οΈ I won’t be giving up upholstery, just expanding my options for the future. πŸ‘

In the short term it will mean that upholstery won’t be my main focus but long term I will still be making chairs beautiful 😍

Thank you all for the support and love you have shown my business so far. πŸ™πŸ’•

Thanks for reading and good luck to anyone else with a new start this September.

Bespoke commission delivery this morning…
This chair has been built from scratch using a large scale frame with extra long back for comfort and support πŸ‘ŒπŸ’•πŸ‘
There was an awful moment when I thought it wasn’t going to fit into the house - but a scenic detour through a field and in though the larger back door got the chair where it needed to be πŸ˜…πŸ‘πŸ₯‚πŸΎπŸŽ‰ …

Unique commission.

This was terrifying, challenging but also very rewarding.

Using original rugby πŸ‰ shirts commemorating a professional career this chair will be traveling to France eventually.

With the layout planned out by the man himself I was trusted to make the design work πŸ˜…
What a fascinating project!!
