The Couch that Jack Built

Re-upholster your chair

First published on . Updated on .

Time Out has it on great authority from our resident restoration expert, Matt Ward from Drunk on the Moon, that 'Jack' is the master of upholstery. Dining chairs, couches, armchairs, ottomans and once even a makeover for a little girl’s dolls house. Jack’s skills lie not only in his meticulous repairs, but also in his opportunistic use of recycled fabrics. His clients include decorators, shop fitters and pubs, clubs and restaurants Sydney wide.
