I Love Wight Midsummer Fair!

21/6/2015

0 Comments

 
We had the pleasure of spending yesterday at the gorgeous Garlic Farm in Newchurch here on the Isle of Wight for the I Love Wight Midsummer Market!

The weather wasn't as "Summery" as we would have liked but none the less the market was busy with punters looking for that unique item amongst the handpicked stools and their handmade wares!

We at Ryde Upholstery used the opportunity to reupholster a pair of lovely 1960's Ben Chairs - originally upholstered in a pearlised moss green plastic material, we decided to stay true to the fabric and the detailing by using some metallic faux leather.  We naturally upholstered them as they originally were (it's all in the detail!) as have seen some reupholstered recently that aren't true to the original fabric or design detail #criminal!

Roll up, Roll up... Both these Ben Chairs are for sale £80 each or both for £150 including local delivery (overseas please ask for a delivery quote!).

Ryde Upholstery @ Chic Living Show

28/10/2014

A few weeks ago now but finally getting this on our blog!  We had a great weekend at The Chic Living Show at New Barn Farm in Calbourne back in September.  This was the first show of its kind on the Island and what an amazing job Jenny and Chloe did at putting it all together - quality was everywhere to be seen from the exhibitors chosen to be there to Tansys Pantry (an old double decker bus converted in to a vegetarian cafe!).

As well as having a stand with some lovely chairs and cushions on to show what we can do, I also gave a little talk in the speakers area on upholstery!  Think all went OK and many thanks to Jennie for the the stiff drink she bought me afterwards!

Jennie and Chloe are busy securing dates for next years show, so if you want to keep an eye on when it's happening etc. then head on over to www.chiclivingshow.co.uk or find them on FaceBook.  We hope to be there again next year if they will have us!

Loving the sticker I found in a very old Lego catalogue found in my parents loft!  Must be from early 1980's and in great condition - you can't beat a bit of lego! Emx
