Looking for unique Sydney activities? Experience the joy of making your own stylish and unique ottoman with BOBINEK’s footstool upholstery and furniture painting course!
Over two weeks, you'll be introduced to basic upholstery techniques and furniture painting to create a DIY ottoman that you will then take home.
You will use high-quality, eco-friendly paint (Fusion Mineral Paint) which you will apply to an upcycled/reclaimed timber frame made by a local joiner from Orange. Each frame is handmade and unique with its provenance.
To upholster the top seat, you will be introduced to what tools you need and how to use them. Once you made the booking, you will be contacted to choose from a wide range of pre-selected fabric/paint combinations. Pre-selected fabrics are either from Australian or International fabric pattern designers or a personal collection. Each fabric has its own story.
If there is a fabric that you have and love and would like to use, please contact us to help you choose the right paint colour before the course.
This upholstery and furniture painting course is perfect for individuals who are interested in DIY crafts and those who are looking for a creative output or get-together activity with a friend. Also a great gift for birthdays or anniversaries!

What you'll get

I find ottomans a super interesting piece of furniture for how versatile they can be. I would go and see other retailers but always end up frustrated for seeing dull colours and plain fabrics.
So I started BOBINEK with a vision of creating ottomans with interesting fabrics and happy colours that I don't see in other shops.
BOBINEK is very me! Just like the name, it means "ottoman" in Czech and that is where I am from. My name is Jana and I was born in Prague in the Czech Republic. I studied the arts and architecture of Prague which I brought to Australia.
I have been living here since 2002 and I am a proud Aussie citizen! :)
