What you'll do
Learn the fundamental skills needed to paint and upcycle furniture to a professional level with this fun two-day woodworking course from OP Woodcraft!
Your friendly teacher Oliver will begin by sharing woodcare knowledge and demonstrating different techniques and equipment before you begin to work on your own pieces with step-by-step support.
You'll get to choose between working on either two small or one medium/large piece of your own furniture, using your teacher's professional process and acrylic eggshell to beautifully restore your furniture.
In this course, you'll cover:
- Health and safety.
- Concept mock-up on paper – including colours, design, materials needed and materials discussion.
- Stripping, neutralising and sanding/woodcare techniques.
- Stain blocking, priming, knotting and undercoating.
- Painting, rolling and cutting back techniques.
- Finishes – waxes, varnishes, stains, oils, polishes.
- Hardware discussion (student to bring hardware if needed).
- Staging and photography.
At the end of this interactive course, you'll have your finished upcycled masterpiece and all the knowledge you need to sympathetically restore any piece of furniture, whether it’s with paint or naturally.

Your teacher
My name is Oliver Piepereit, and I’m a trained architectural interior designer with a passion for all aspects of arts, crafts and design. I’ve wanted to design and make on a small scale for many years, so I pulled away from the rat race and trained up in furniture design, making, restoration, refinishing and French polishing. Following my tuition, OP Woodcraft was formed in April 2014.
Life in the rat race was tiring, stressful, monotonous and took valuable time away from what is most important in my life -- family and health. Working in a practical, creative environment has sculpted a life that is low in stress with an abundance of escapism which I’m sure translates into my work.
