Spotted the perfect piece of furniture for your home, but it needs a little love?

This August, Edinburgh Open Workshop invites you to a full-day, hands-on course where you’ll learn how to transform tired furniture into something truly unique.

Led by Jen of Happy Retro Furniture, this small-group workshop will guide you through every step of the upcycling process: how to choose the right pieces, prepare them for painting, experiment with colours and patterns, and add the perfect functional finishing touches. By the end of the day, you’ll have created your own beautifully redesigned small vintage table to take home.

All materials - including your table - are provided, and no prior experience is needed. Just bring your enthusiasm and creativity.

Book now on www.edinburghopenworkshop.co.uk or 0131 555 6866 to secure your place and start turning the old into the extraordinary.
