Detalii produs

A third book from the BBC''''s Top Rated Hit The Repair Shop In today''''s throwaway culture, there''''s a counter movement growing that urges us to "make do and mend". The Repair Shop has brought this waste-conscious message to an even wider audience, cementing itself as a BBC classic of the likes of Antiques Roadshow. The third book concentrates on the show''''s much-loved experts, including woodworker and furniture restorer Will Kirk, clockmaker and mechanical wizard Steve Fletcher, silversmith Brenton West, saddler/leatherworker Suzie Fletcher, upholsterer Sonnaz, and seamstresses Julie Tatchell & Amanda Middleditch - aka The Teddy Bear Ladies, with each sharing why they love their craft, followed by a narrative on two specific objects and their restoration journeys. These narratives capture the ethos of the programme by being almost Aesop''''s Fables-esque - e.g. The Woodworker and the Broken Toy Chest - with quotes from the recipients of restored objects dotted around. With the focus on the artisans themselves, readers will feel as though they''''re stepping straight into the ''''workshop of dreams''''.
