Upholstery Courses by J A Milton
We hold both Soft Furnishing (curtains and blinds etcetera)
and Upholstery Courses at our workshop
Joan Milton became involved in teaching upholstery at two Shropshire colleges. It was then that she discovered how difficult it was for the DIYer or small business person to obtain tools or materials, hence the launch of her mail order Upholstery Supplies Catalogue. The Catalogue had been written for the complete novice, explaining the use of the tools and materials as well as using samples.
Teaching her trade gives her a great deal of pleasure and so it became inevitable that she developed this further. She now reserves her workshop several days a month for 'Teaching Days'. The classes are very small with a maximum of four students. The word 'student' conjures up a picture of a young person but in this case it is far from the representative of those who attend. These 'students' range in ages from 18 to 75 and are all enthusiastic to learn.
