About this product

Product Information

To coincide with a new 30-part series of The Repair Shop on BBC2, a 'Make Do and Mend' manual for modern times, from the experts behind the hit series THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER AND OFFICIAL COMPANION TO THE HIT BBC SERIES BBC's The Repair Shop is a place where Britain's most skilled and caring craftspeople rescue and resurrect items that owners thought were beyond saving. Their shared love of craft has helped hundreds of people recover and relive cherished memories, and inspired millions to rediscover their own prized possessions. The skill required to properly restore those items may be beyond most of us, but there are small things we can all do to care for the items we love the most. How do you replenish the stuffing in your child's beloved, tatty teddy bear, for instance? Or remove a water mark left on your wooden table? What's the best way to prevent your leather from cracking? Direct from the Repair Shop's 'Workshop of Dreams', this 'make do and mend' guide collects advice and stories from each of the show's experts, to help you understand and care for those aging treasures and heirlooms around your house or gathering dust in the garage. Whether it's wood, ceramics, leather or silverware, you will get to know your materials, tools and terms from Britain's best, as the Repair Shop experts share their tips on restoring and conserving, reveal their favourite tools, and provide a series of small, manageable projects that help tackle the most common problems that occur in their given medium. Their book, like the show it accompanies, with help you safeguard your sentimental legacy for generations to come.

  • Useful but limited

    A handbook detailing favourite tools is always useful. And although I get that the BBC cannot advertise, I was hoping that the book form of the programme would be less vague and could identify the best commercially named products available for domestic use - i.e. those not requiring a licence. The hunt goes on.

  • Good value

    Interesting book , with interesting in put sections. Drawings instead of photos are a good touch.

  • Not worth buying as it adds nothing to the programmes

    It is just a digest of the programmes, No new details of products - glues,etc, tools, or where to get them from or any new information about techniques used. Very general and without the personalities.
