We are launching our new DIY furniture kits in 2021 and you get to be the first ones to build your own upholstered chair! That’s right, we are teaching you how to build and upholster a full size, fully upholstered arm chair! Join in on this exciting two night building experience. You have a choice of 4 colours or go off grid and submit your own fabric for us to pre sew for a small upcharge.

Chair is a tight seat & tight back and approx 32”W x 34”D x34”H Pictures coming soon

DAIKU (Japanese for Carpenter) was an idea created by Alex and myself to meet the demands of all our wonderful workshop past participants requesting a challenge. The idea struck when both Alex and I had our travels to Japan and admired the furniture that married simple lines and great function with adaptability. Over a year in the making and now available to DIY!
