Give your furniture a second life with our courses

“The workshop was really interesting. Cécile is a great teacher. The pace was spot on, as was the atmosphere. The small group size meant we could ask lots of questions, all of which Cécile answered. It’s a really good workshop format. I learnt a lot, and Cécile is really friendly!”

“An absolutely fascinating course that’s very accessible thanks to the wealth of information shared, plenty of discussion and hands-on practice! Cécile makes you really want to get started the very next day!”

“I had a brilliant time with Cécile, who is a real fountain of knowledge when it comes to restoration! A lovely group of six people – friendly, curious and keen to learn. We were welcomed with some delicious biscuits, which certainly didn’t hurt. I’d recommend it 100 per cent.”

“A fascinating workshop during which Cécile shared a wealth of interesting information with us! We were able to try our hand at restoring some pieces of furniture and left with loads of useful tips to help us get started on restoring our own furniture. Thank you :) (and thank you for the delicious biscuits too)”

“A brilliant experience with Cecile, who spent four hours alternating between offering great advice on all aspects of furniture restoration and giving us some hands-on practice. I’ve done a bit of this myself, but I was in a group with complete beginners. We all came away absolutely delighted… and Cecile had even baked some delicious biscuits for us. Absolutely brilliant!!!”

“A lovely afternoon spent discovering techniques and tips for finding and restoring small wooden pieces of furniture! Cécile is a brilliant teacher and creates a very relaxed atmosphere. We left her workshop brimming with ideas and motivation!”

“A brilliant workshop! Cécile is truly passionate and a brilliant teacher! Pure joy and a shared passion!”

“Through a clear, educational, structured and user-friendly approach, Cécile sheds light on the basics of furniture restoration in a way that’s accessible to everyone. Very positive. I’d definitely recommend it.”

“It was a brilliant workshop; I learnt a lot, even though I’m not a complete beginner. The welcome was brilliant, the atmosphere was brilliant, and all the tips will come in handy and make my work easier. I can’t recommend Cécile’s workshop highly enough.”
