Bring your worn-out chair to class and learn the nearly lost art of the traditional, seven-step method of chair seat weaving commonly known as "hole-to-hole caning." During the course, you'll have ample time, instruction and all the tools you'll need to restore your vintage chair by recaning the seat to its original condition. Whether a family heirloom chair or the one you picked up at the antique store that needs a little brushing up, vintage chairs that need seat work are welcome in this course that's tailored to your specific project. Chairs need to have predrilled holes around the perimeter of seat and be in good condition (not in need of re-gluing or refinishing). Each student will consult with the instructor prior to the start of the course to assess the chair's needs.
