Maria's Traditional Upholstery Workshop is located at Meppershall in the heart of the Bedfordshire countryside. We are a business which aims to provide a professional and friendly service. Having completed formal training through the Association of Master Upholsterers and Soft Furnishers (AMUSF) you can be assured that the methods used and the levels of workmanship practised are to the very highes

t standards.

2012 was a very busy year for the workshop. If you take a look at our portfolio you will be able to see the variety of projects we have successfully undertaken. We have also seen an increase in the number of students attending our training courses and have received some interesting feedback. As a result of this we have now launched our 'PAY AS YOU UPHOLSTER' Leisure Classes for 2013. For those of you who would like to try your hand at this centuries old craft, we are pleased to run taster sessions as well as courses in the workshop. More details are provided under Courses. We are also happy to provide free quotations and free collection and delivery of your furniture within a 25 mile radius of our workshop.

Many Congratulations to our student, Laura Fleckney for being one of the runners-up at the Heico Fasteners Chair Design Competition 2023 at the January Furniture Show - NEC Birmingham. Laura produced an amazing chair based upon a vintage American car design. The miniature chair was created from an initial concept on Laura’s mood board to the final design. Well done Laura!
