Grace did a great job of introducing furniture restoration tips in a very approachable manner. I felt inspired to go home and tackle my project!! I also loved the Perennial work space and hope to get to visit again soon!

Grace did a great job of explaining how to take furniture apart and put it back together for restoration. I especially liked the part of the demo where she showed us how to use soybean-based stripper to remove the old finish. That stuff is amazing!

Class was informative for beginners on eco friendly paintbremoval and stains. I love the building/place where the class is held and idea...just don't love the neighborhood especially coming alone after dark. It is iffy.
