FAQs (7)
What kind of furniture can I bring?
Small to medium pieces work best — bedside tables, small drawers, coffee tables, or similar.
Before booking, please send me a photo of your piece so I can confirm it’s suitable for the session.
Do I need any experience?
Not at all. This is designed for beginners as well as anyone who wants to improve their technique.
I’ll guide you step-by-step through the process.
Will I finish my piece in one session?
That depends on the size and condition of your piece.
Most people will either complete a smaller item or make significant progress in one session. Larger or more detailed pieces may need a follow-up session.
What do I need to bring?
Your furniture piece, clothes you don’t mind getting paint on, and your chosen paint (based on my recommendation).
All other materials and tools are provided.
Can I bring a friend?
Yes — sessions are kept small so you get proper guidance. You can book for two people, but anything larger becomes a group class, which I don’t offer.
Can you help me choose a colour?
Absolutely. If you’re unsure, I’m happy to guide you before your session so you feel confident in your choice.
What happens if my piece isn’t suitable?
If your piece isn’t suitable for a standard session, I’ll let you know and suggest a better option so you still get a great result.

Recent reviews of 1:1 Furniture Upcycling Workshop: Bring Your Own Piece
- 5/5 from Jacqui Brauman, attended Aug 2026: I had such a wonderful experience with Ann from Jived and Revived. The class was one-on-one, and being able to bring my own piece of furniture to work on made it incredibly practical and rewarding. Ann is a fantastic teacher—patient, knowledgeable, and happy to share her expertise at every step. I learned how to properly prepare a piece, sand it back, repair scratches and marks, and explore different finishing techniques using stain, paint, washes and wax. I came away with so much more confidence than I expected. Seeing the layers come away to reveal the beautiful timber grain underneath was genuinely exciting, and I'm thrilled with how far my project has come. This class has inspired a whole new hobby for me. I can't wait to start searching for more solid timber furniture to restore and give a second life. If you've ever thought about trying furniture restoration, I couldn't recommend Ann highly enough. Her passion is infectious, and you'll leave with new skills, a beautiful project, and a real appreciation for the craft.
- 5/5 from Cilla Jones, attended May 2026: A great introduction to upcycling introduction with Anne! Very comfortable environment for learning furniture remodelling techniques 1 on 1. Great idea for anyone looking to get creatively inspired with furniture! Highly recommend Ann as a wonderful instructor, I will be back for more :)
- 5/5 from Elizabeth Miric, attended May 2026: I brought a side table to work on, Ann gave me great info on what paint to get. Ann was a great instructor, demonstrated what to do and then made sure i did it correctly. She was very easy to talk to and I enjoyed my time while working on my piece. It turned out spectacular and I couldn't be more happy, and excited to finish my other pieces back at home.
Your teacher
I started Jived & Revived out of a love for taking tired, overlooked furniture and turning it into something you’d actually want in your home.What began as doing up pieces for myself quickly turned into friends asking, “Can you do mine?” — and then into a business.I’m not about quick paint jobs or cutting corners. The difference is always in the prep, the finish, and the detail — and that’s what I focus on.I started running one-on-one workshops because I kept hearing the same thing: people had pieces at home they wanted to transform, but were too nervous to start or worried they’d get it wrong.So instead of group classes, I keep it personal. You bring your piece, and I guide you through it properly — step by step — so you leave with something you’re actually proud of (and the confidence to do it again).No fluff, no guesswork — just real, hands-on learning in a relaxed space.
