Fabric and leather collection
I am slowly building up my fabric collection for customers to choose from, and this collection keeps growing. So if you wanted to have a piece of furniture re-upholstered, I have new fabric and leather books for you to browse through from Warwick Fabrics, Yarwood Leather and Futura Leathers. Lots of different types of fabrics, textures and colours to choose from!!!

1939 Austin Ten Cambridge Saloon.
Well....here is a few pictures of the latest project I was lucky enough to work on! A 1939 Austin Ten. This really is a beautifull classic car, unfortunatly the interior didnt match up to the rest of the car....thats where I came in!! The car had been re-upholstered by somebody else before me, and had been done in vinyl. Me and the owner of the car both agreed that the interior should be done in real leather and in a colour which went well with the rest of the car......so, with the leather ordered....I got started!!!!

What's been happening!!
Well....it's certainly been a busy last couple of month's for me now that I have gone self employed. Basically I have been doing this line of work for about 10 years now.....wow! Weird when you say it like that! Including Traditional upholstery to modern, hotels, bars, restaurants, hair salon's, car's,boat's, plane's and even leather repair!!
I decided to have a go on my own this year, as I am confidant that the work is out there, and so far.....I have not been dissapointed!
I am slowly building up my fabric collection for customers to view, and I have a range of leather and faux leather sample's too!
I work from home at the moment in a workshop that me and my dad built together, it's not huge, but it's a clean and bright space to work in.....it's mine and I love working in there!! But if things keep going the way they are, then im sure I will be having to expand into a bigger place!
I have had alot of support from everybody in my life, from giving advice, handing buisness card's out, or just lending a hand when I need it! So to all of you, a big thank you!
I hope thing's keep going as well as this for the future, if you have any queries about anything at all, perhap's you have an item you want restored, or just some advice! My email is michaelsmithupholstery@gmail.com, and my mobile number is 07585809013.
Many thanks.

Desk's.
Here are some photo's of desk's which I have replaced the leather inlay's on, one involving a reptile effect! I also did some restoration with the wood on a couple of them too! One which includes before and after shot's, so you can really see the difference!
