Since I’m caught up with my chairs…I got bored. My neighbor, who owns Bluebird Pottery, suggested I look at the latest thing called pottery weaving on Etsy and Pinterest. She made me several pieces and I tried my hand at weaving these pieces. Whatcha think?

Just finished this chair today. I’ve never had to weave a circular seat. I had to partially disassemble the chair in order reach some of the holes. It was a challenge!

Got in a unique piece the other day. I repaired one similar to this one but it was only a high chair. This one is not only a high chair but converts to a stroller. Has anyone ever seen one like this?

Just finished 6 ladder back chairs. I think they turned out pretty good. The customer was very pleased.

This is an Ethan Allen Hitchcock chair that needs a new Fibre rush seat. In order to weave it, you have to disassemble the seat. The side panels are easily removed since they are stabled. The front however is a different story. If you look in the second picture, you can see a circle that’s covering the screw that is holding on the front panel. You have to drill out the plug, remove the screw, then replace the plug and match it to the front panel. Not an easy task! Wish me luck!

I found this old chair in my sister-in-law’s barn a few years ago . It dates back to the 1800’s. If you look in the second picture, you’ll see that the wood in the back and left side had broken off which meant you couldn’t re-weave it. Susha and I were cleaning out our storage unit and I found it and brought it home. I sanded off the back and left side where I could glue in some wood pieces, 3rd pic. I drilled the holes and then used my Dremel to make the channel to match the other sides. I then used my torch to darken the new wood where it would match the other sides. I then proceeded to re-weave the chair. I never thought I could do it but I think it turned out just fine!

Just got in this dining room chair that needs repairing. Since it’s one of a set, I’ll have to stain the new cane to match the color of this one. There in lies the challenge!
