Tufting carpet workshop in Bordeaux (33)

Activity description :

Explore the fascinating world of tufting with Matthieu, a passionate craftsman. When you arrive at his workshop, you'll receive a warm welcome from this expert. Beforehand, you will have discussed the design of your future rug (50x50cm) by e-mail or telephone, ensuring optimal preparation for your creative session.

The workshop (3h30):

• To begin with, you'll familiarize yourself with the tufting gun while Matthieu makes the necessary adjustments. During this phase, he'll introduce you to the basics of this handcrafted technique, demonstrating how to handle the tool and giving you the chance to try it out.
• Once you're comfortable with the gun, the selected motif will be projected onto the canvas, giving you the opportunity to bring your creation to life. Matthieu will always be on hand to offer advice and assistance if required.
• Once the tufted motif is complete, you'll use glue to securely fix the wool to the canvas. Finally, you'll entrust your work to Matthieu for the drying process and finishing touches.

When you return two or three days later, you'll be delighted to receive your personalized rug, a masterpiece that will add a unique and original touch to your home!
