Hi everyone, My name is Sue or Susie and I live in Australia, on the island, Tasmania, following my passion in furniture restoration. I work out of my workshop on our property. I am a largely self taught although my parents helped incidentally with my mother doing upholstery and occasional furniture restoration back in the day where she was very much 'on the tools' and my father being an antique dealer. In saying that I have done a couple of restoration courses and youtube has helped a lot.
I look for old, worn out and previously loved pieces of furniture, particularly antiques or period furniture, and aim to give them a new life for many years to come.
Sometimes complex and layered repairs, sometimes more simple. But all in the name of restoring to original or as close to it as possible or even more beautiful than the original, depending on the pieces. Link to Etsy shop below.
