About

This class has been postponed.

Have a chair tor other piece of furniture hat's wobbly or in need of help? Bring it to this three-session class! 

The instructor, a furniture-repair expert, will evaluate the types of repairs needed for the pieces students bring with them. Then she will help students through the steps needed to correctly repair them. Some pieces may need to be disassembled, scraped free of old glue, and re glued. Others may need new bracing or other first aid. By the end of the class students will learn not only how to fix their own pieces but how to approach a variety of treatments on other furniture repairs as well.

Details:

  • Open to beginners.
  • Interested in learning a new skill but don't have an ailing piece of furniture at hand? We'll provide one or you can team up with another student.
  • A materials fee of $5 will be collected when you register and pay online.
INSTRUCTOR:  Carol Fiedler Kawaguchi is a professional woodworker who specializes in restoration of antique furniture through her business, C-Saw, on Bainbridge Island. After earning a fine arts degree from Western Washington University, she worked in New Mexico as an apprentice ceramicist and then as an apprentice violin maker, which taught her a lot about fine woodworking and traditional finishes. She began designing and building custom furniture in the mid 1980s. Her interest in European, Early American and Asian antiques led her to focus on their restoration and repair.
