1950s Rocking Duck Chair Gets Quacking Makeover! | The Repair Shop

➤ Subscribe ➤ bit.ly/RepairSh...
Nick Cope has brought in a 1950s rocking duck chair that has been enjoyed by countless children in his family. The cheery-looking duck originally belonged to his aunt, who tragically died as a child. His mother was devastated by the loss of her sister and kept the rocking chair as a reminder of her sibling. Nick remembers the fun that he and his brothers had playing in it and would love his grandson to have a go too. However, the duck is in a sorry state and certainly not safe for little ones to ride. Its paint is chipped, and the pale blue upholstery on the seat is too far gone. Dominic Chinea gets to work on the metal frame while the queen of upholstery, Sonnaz Nooranvary, replaces the seat cushioning.

The Repair Shop is such a refreshing program to view. Each of the tasks at hand have a great story that goes with each one. All of those on the program who bring the pieces back to life are truly genuine artists. The results not only bring tears of joy to the owners but also to we, the viewers.
