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.
