✨ From worn-out to wow ✨
Our tenant Jason at The Terrace Boarding House spent six weeks recently working his magic on two tired old bench seats – and the results speak for themselves!
With more than 30 hours of dedication, Jason rolled up his sleeves and brought his skills as a French polisher and furniture restorer to life. Starting with a thorough pressure clean, then sanding, staining (with multiple coats!), and even replacing all the screws, Jason went the extra mile – carefully removing each panel to make sure every detail was just right. The metal frames got a refresh too, giving these benches a whole new look and feel.
But for Jason, it was about more than just the benches. “I’ve really enjoyed the process," he says. "It’s got me out of bed every day and given me something to do.”
Now proudly back in place, the benches are a beautiful addition to The Terrace and have already received lots of love from both tenants and staff.
Amazing work, Jason! Thank you for making a real difference to the space and community.
