Discover the beauty of traditional craftsmanship in this one-day workshop with Felicity Tran, skilled upholsterer and seat weaver.
Guided step by step, you’ll create a stunning handwoven footstool to take home — a piece of furniture made entirely by you!
In this immersive workshop, you will:
✨ Weave a gorgeous herringbone-style pattern using sustainable seagrass cord
🌳 Work with a locally made beech wood frame, crafted by an artisan maker
🪡 Learn heritage techniques in a friendly, relaxed setting
🌸 Enjoy the mindful rhythm of weaving while connecting with others
By the end of the day, you’ll leave with not just a professional-quality, functional footstool, but also the pride of learning a timeless craft.
Whether you’re a complete beginner or simply curious about traditional upholstery, this workshop is a wonderful opportunity to learn, create, and enjoy the peaceful surroundings of Bowood.
