Child's Chair Restoration

Dovetail Restorations Ltd

We were asked to restore this child’s chair— hammer used for size reference— by a client as a gift for their grandchild. It’s going to be passed down another generation and we are very happy to have worked on this chair! We repaired some structural damage, built a new armrest gave it a new coat and and new upholstery. Honestly, such a beautiful chair.

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the We Say You Say column of your local paper.

Arborist to prune an Avocado tree

Ann from Ellerslie

We have a fairly young Avocado tree (abt 3m high) which is starting to ‘take over’. I believe it’s not just a case of ‘hacking off branches’!. Please message us on 021-137-1108

Books, Bagels & Banter

Karen Ross from St Andrew's Church Epsom

WATCH THIS SPACE Next week we’ll be announcing our exciting line-up of speakers for Books, Bagels & Banter so check in then to meet the speakers and for ticketing details.
A huge thank you to members of the St Andrew’s community who have donated books, given their time to sort these and so much more. We still have a large number of books to sort so if you can spare an hour or two on Wednesday, please come to the Church hall
between 9am and 12 noon.
We also need volunteers on the weekend of the event, particularly people to sell books - if you can lend a hand, message us or let Karen know at the office.
St Andrew’s is well-known for its hospitality and we wish to extend this to everyone who attends the opening night on Friday 24th May. If you are able to make a donation to help cover some of the expenses please contact the office – any amount will be gratefully received.
