Seasons to be Cheerful

New Term, new season and new fabric to see.

We started off September by visiting the annual Decorex show up at Syon Park, just outside London.

Over the years, we have seen the amount of fabric suppliers, exhibit less and less, mainly due to the majority of them having showrooms at Chelsea Harbour Design Centre. However, it’s always a great opportunity to see the new season designs and say hello to old faces.

Our new favourite from the show was from Art of the Loom and the “Harewood Collection”. Luckily our clients think the same and this week we’re using it on a rather gorgeous Victorian small bedroom tub chair.

In October, one of our fellow Dorset upholsterers brought another trade show to our attention. This one was much smaller and held in Cheltenham – Road Trip! Off we went and although we saw the same faces, we did come across new fabric suppliers which made the trip worthwhile. We can also recommend the M5 services at Gloucester.
