Vale Park is on the right three quarters of the way up the hill that runs through the Industrial Estate, past the Village Bakery, D Jones Plant Hire, Mars-Jones and before BOCM.Turn into Vale Park and look immediately right - the North Wales Upholstery Sign is clearly visible outside our premises.

A small chair, stool or other small upholstered piece of furniture you would like to revamp. Please email an image of your proposed project well before the course start date so that its suitability may be confirmed and materials ordered.

Please bring a notepad and don't forget your camera if you have one. You'll find it useful to record stages of your work and that of others at various stages.

Please wear comfy and casual clothing suitable for working practically, thick soled shoes and ideally an apron.

We have a selection of pattern and trimming books here if you are looking for fabrics and have accounts with most major fabric designers. We also have a great selection of roll ends of Linwood velvets and weaves. These are premium quality upholstery fabrics available for only £10 per metre.

You probably won't need fabric until your second class but if you would like to have a look prior to your course please contact me to make an appointment.
