Precious items of clothing, a tea trolley, some accordions and a propeller are among the items remade into beautiful and functional items.
Sabrina Grant presents as a team of expert crafters transform unused objects into contemporary and functional items.
Jane has brought in her late mum’s wedding dress, a pink suede jacket and what her mum called her ‘smart dress’. She can’t use them, but she can’t bear to part with them either. Metalcraft expert Leigh and seamstress extraordinaire Elizabeth go head to head to convince Jane to choose their idea to transform the clothes with radical designs.
Graeme arrives with an unused tea trolley that has a squeaky wheel. For Graeme, it’s full of precious memories of his grandmother: not only was it used to serve tea, it was where the family found their presents on Christmas Day. Interior design and furniture specialist Rob has an idea that will keep the memories intact while also turning it into a useful piece of furniture again.
Carpentry expert Shelley gets her dancing shoes on as Frazer arrives playing an accordion. He started playing when he was nine, and his collection of instruments is growing. Some are beyond repair, but Frazer loves their handcrafted designs and wants them repurposed without losing their charm. Shelley comes up with an idea that she knows Frazer will love.
And former Royal Marine Titch gets excited about an old propeller from an outboard motor. For its owner Eric, it brings back fond memories of holidays on Scotland’s coast with his grandfather, but now the propeller just sits on a shelf. Titch is a wizard with anything metal and mechanical, and he comes up with a stunning transformation.
