Upholstery Project - chair (Brightwell cum Sotwell OX10)
Expired
Half finished chair upholstery project. This bedroom/dressing table chair has been in my spare room since my evening classes stopped I don’t have the time to finish it and I need the space it’s taking up. The chair has been webbed and sprung, has the horsehair and hessian layers in place and this current calico covering. The calico should probably be redone, it has been sat on by my cats, is a bit grubby and probably stretched. I have some card suitable for covering the gap between the seat and bottom wood frame so that a top cover will sit smoothly in place. I also have a sizeable amount of grey/blue velour on a roll suitable for use as a top cover which I will include with the chair. Alternatively you can strip it right back to the bare frame and start the project again, Collect asap from Brightwell cum Sotwell, evenings from 6pm or weekend afternoons. You need a hatchback car to transport it.

Kenwood Smoothie Maker (Brightwell cum Sotwell OX10)
Gifted
Hasn’t been used for a couple of years but has been switched in and the motor works and the blades rotated. No instructions but simple button functions for use. Some of the ‘chrome’ colour has worn away leaving the grey plastic shell visible but this doesn’t affect use.
