    I aspire to have your grit to take on difficult/challenging projects. Many would say no, or say "it's not my cup of tea." Not you Trena. You and Laura rose to the occasion...nicely done!

    Very nicely done ! This is the first time I have seen someone rejuvenate a wicker chair . Good job.

    This was amazing. I once had to re-cane the seat of a rocker and thought that was a tough job. It's such a pleasure watching professionals who can also bring creative solutions to the job.

    You always make everything look amazing. Even if it’s an old brown wicker rocker. I bet his elderly mom will have a big smile on her face at Christmas.

    Frank's is absolutely the best place for any kind of furniture weave!! They know EVERYTHING. And they will always spend time talking you through your project. Plus, when you call, an actual human answers the phone and it's frequently Frank.

    Trena, you never cease to amaze me with your skill in bringing old and broken pieces back to life. The effort you went into to get that reed weave looking tight was above and beyond what I've seen other do. While I was laughing with you while you were bonking your heads, it reminded my of the Three Stooges. I hope your heads are okay. If I ever move back up north, I'll make the drive to your shop to get my furniture fixed.

    Great job. Enjoyed watching you putting on the new weave with all the struggles and bumps into the clamps. The end results were amazing.

    The more difficult the job the more laughter...you both did a GREAT JOB. Love this video.

    You are right there is nothing on the Internet besides this video! And I’m happy that this one exists! I have a 20 year old resin wicker rocker that needs the wicker replaced. The bones are good as it is aluminum frame and I don’t Want to throw it away like everyone keeps telling me to do! I’m retired now so I think especially from watching this video, if I can find the resin fabric, I should be able to repair it myself! Thank you so much for posting this video and for the name of the supplier!

    This video was many things. I laughed outloud at Trena and Laura, that was the best!! Talk about enjoying your work!! And the fact it was for someone’s ninety year old Mom was wonderful! One of my favorite videos ever!!!

  • @52daa

    What a challenging time 😊. You and Laura have real fortitude to tackle this and keep your humor and not let the fabric win! You rock!

    Amazing!!! Wow! Looked very difficult to do! Love how it turned out!❤️

    with all that pulling and stretching, I'm impressed at how straight the weave is in the finished product. I would have thought that was good for the trash but you rescued it.

    Love the video. Reminds me of some of the jobs I've gotten myself into. Love the laughter when sometimes you want to cry and ask why.......You girls did an awesome job. I KNOW how bad your hands hurt. Even with sharp scissors somethings just don't want to give. Thanks for your inspiration. I can see me doing one next time. 🙂
