"Any colour—so long as it's black."
—Henry Ford
This is my final post for 2013, and while it is substantially about a couple of refinishing jobs which were combined because of their both being black, this second year in business has been bright. I have grown from a business perspective as well as gaining further experience in product knowledge and techniques, the fruits of which I will continue to pass on to my valued clients. A highlight for the year was being awarded Multiple Finalist status once again for the David Awards: Heroes in Small Business. Most of all, however, I am grateful to everyone who has supported Leatherwise throughout 2013, and I look forward optimistically to 2014.
In the final week prior to our closing for the year, I recoloured the worn armrest of the end of a black La-Z-boy recliner, then applied a new finish to a small black chair with a mottled appearance which would not improve with cleaning, even though the surface was a synthetic material (i.e. not leather). Both jobs were fairly straightforward, but my clients were especially pleased that I was able to fit them in before year's end.
