25.01.2022 Wow! See just how pretty recycling can be!

25.01.2022 We had such a blast, so were doing it again on Saturday 12 September... Will we see you there? Feel free to share this with interested friends and family. Oh! and if you buy two tickets, you only pay $220 instead of $250! Thats $22 per hour! Bargain... :)

24.01.2022 Whooo! On the 23rd of May we gave our first workshop under our new name: Green Staples. Bye Bye Curb Collective. It is a new era! A BIG thank you to Ku-ring-gai Council for hosting us. Like us and we will keep you posted of any new events.

23.01.2022 Remeber our first workshop is next month! Upholstery is a craft, and just like with any craft - practice makes perfect. However, you have to start sometime! So this could be your chance to turn something old into something funky. Check it out!

21.01.2022 It was a cozy affair with some challenging chairs:) Thanks to The Works gorgeous, spacious workspace time flew by during this basic upholstery workshop. A follow-up is planned for September 12.

19.01.2022 Dont forget to sign up for this lovely opportunity to learn something new and exciting! Upholstery is a craft, and just like with any craft - practice makes perfect. However, you have to start sometime! So this could be your chance to turn something old into something funky; some chair you were going to throw out into a chair you will feature in your living room. We hope to be able to help you on your creative way...

04.01.2022 When we dont give workshops, we spend as much time as we can being chair doctors... On our daily commutes we encounter many forgotten and unloved chairs and stools by the side of the road. They call to us for help and we cant help but fall in love with them. So we bring them home and do all we can to nurse them back to health - Repair ... Reuse ... Relove

03.01.2022 On the 17th of October Green Staples gave another fun and cosy workshop at The Works in Glebe. Such a beautiful airy space! We got right down to it and managed to finish all the projects. Super proud of attendees! Well done!

03.01.2022 Fantastic! What a great way to recycle plastic bags! Very inspiring...

02.01.2022 We were fortunate enough to be a part of this fantastic event hosted by the Inner Sydney Montessori School in Balmain. We had brought along a little stool Miki had found and gave a small upholstery demonstration to show how fast and easy it could be fixed up. Even had a chat with Jamie Parker, former Mayor of Leichhardt and current MP representing Balmain for the Greens
