Great/Inexpensive Upholstery Course locally.

[Boots]

Classes are held at the Thomas Carlton Centre in Peckham, and run by an experienced upholsterer and patient teacher. I am a student on her course.

Currently Tuesday afternoon session (1-3.30pm) has space for new learners. Anywhere else these types of courses cost thousands, but this one is only ?97 for the whole term (10 sessions of 3.5 hours) if you're a new learner. I'm giving it a genuine thumbs up and would encourage anyone with an interest in furniture to come and join the class.

You can be a total beginner or a experienced hand, Jan's teaching is individual, and you'll come away with one or two upholstery projects, and the skills to complete more on your own if you have the interest. Next class is tomorrow 8th Jan at 1pm, or you may be able to join in the following week if that's too soon. You'll need to bring a chair with a "drop-in" seat - eg like a dining table chair with a seat you can pull out and take with you.

Call The Thomas Carlton Centre on 0207 358 2100 to book for Tuesday pm's class.

Just giving this another boost !! First session of the course was on Tuesday afternoon, and there are still plenty of spaces for new learners.

I just attended this upholstery course for the first time and it was great. Jan seems like a very good teacher and it is very good value for money. There are still some spaces left on Tuesday afternoons between 1-3.30. There are 8 sessions left this term which is enough time to complete a project. If you joined for next week you would only pay for the 8 classes left (not the whole course).

For more information call the Thomas Carlton Center on 02073582100.
