per person

The workshop in detail

  • 3h
  • 15 years min.
  • 4 to 5 participants
  • Up to 8 people for a privatization
  • Push the door of Audrey's workshop and learn how to give your furniture a new lease of life during these few hours of discovery. 

    The big revolution in this workshop is that you can give any piece of furniture a makeover, from plastic to wood, via formica or even plywood! You can even paint your fabrics! 

    First, you will analyse your furniture, define its new look and the steps to be taken to achieve the desired result.

    You will discover the secrets of a good preparation of the furniture, from cleaning to the application of the primer.

    Audrey will guide you, step by step, through the transformation of your furniture. 

    You will learn to handle brushes, paints, glazes and varnishes with quality products, respectful of the environment and professional techniques!

    You will leave with all the tips you need to continue your small piece of furniture with a decidedly rejuvenated look (bedside table, shelf, stool), ready to start its new life in your home! And who knows, you may come back for a course of several days, bitten by the makeover bug! 

    Psst! Audrey will give you a furniture renovation guide so you don't forget anything.

    Meet Audrey

    Furniture Restorer

    Audrey is passionate about decorating and recycling. 

    She renovates salvaged or abandoned furniture on the street. She quickly became passionate about renovating and relooking furniture or decorative objects that were supposedly at the end of their life. 

    She shared her passion on social networks and soon received several requests from customers.

    In addition to her work as an occupational therapist, she decided to train herself on environmentally friendly relooking techniques and to share her passion during introductory workshops on furniture renovation.

    She wants to teach the curious how to do it, rather than doing it for them. Her approach is completely focused on upcycling and on the use of products that are respectful of people and the environment. 

    Calm and pedagogical, she welcomes you in her beautiful workshop for a moment of creativity where everyone can find their happiness.
