Stellenbosch notes on furniture reupholstery
Student houses and digs near the campus need couch repairs, new foam and tough covers that survive a year of use. Older homes on Dorp Street and in Mostertsdrift and Die Boord keep Cape Dutch chairs, riempie benches and wingbacks that need restoration. Families in Kayamandi, Idas Valley and Cloetesville recover lounge suites and order headboards. Ask for a frame check on older pieces, since damp winters loosen old joints.
Stellenbosch: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Every January, student digs around Stellenbosch need couches repaired and recovered before the new academic year, and that rhythm sits alongside quieter work on the town's oldest furniture. Oak-lined streets such as Dorp Street hold Cape Dutch and Victorian houses with riempie chairs, yellowwood benches and old wingbacks that need careful restoration. Wine farm tasting rooms, restaurants and guesthouses in the valleys recover dining chairs, booths and stoep cushions before the summer season. Offices at Technopark send office chairs for repair. Families in Kayamandi, Idas Valley and Cloetesville recover lounge suites. Workshops sit in Plankenburg and in home studios, and hot summers fade fabric quickly.
