“Ideal Drape Makers have no hesitation in recommending James Dunlop Textiles and their associated branded textile lines. We have had a long association with their quality textiles, which are used extensively in the manufacture of our quality custom made drapery and blind products. Their fabrics always leave a highly favourable impression with our discerning customers who value the product qualities, and are impressed by the large range of coordinated branded collections available from James Dunlop. Sarah, our Account Manager is not only friendly, cheerful and a pleasure to deal with, but is proactive, and displays an attention to detail, in ensuring that we are well supported with our order fulfillment, product logistics, the supply of cuttings and samples, as well as the ongoing day-to-day interactions with James Dunlop Textiles.

Wanaka Upholstery

“We highly recommend Bevan and Bonnie of Whistling Reindeer/Wanaka Upholstery. Bevan is a true craftsman with vision. He took our existing furniture and a picture from a magazine and transformed our old couches into modern designer pieces. He also provided valuable advice and design ideas. He is indeed a master craftsman. A rare thing in this modern age. Bonnie compliments the team with her taste and ability to help select fabrics. They are truly a team that excels and together have transformed for us several pieces of tired, dated furniture into something contemporary and bespoke. It’s been a real pleasure dealing with them both and we would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending them to others. Neil and Jill Martin”

Upholstery services


Good upholstery work is an artform that takes hours to learn and perfect. Finding a good textiles professional will do amazing things for your ageing furniture or fabrics. Your top upholsterer can rehabilitate a worn or outdated chair, sofa, ottoman or other piece — a great money-saver when the cost of replacement may be much, much more.

They can also help you create bespoke furniture or, if you have a one-of-a-kind piece that needs restoration, their stock of designer fabrics will give you a range of options, and they can help you choose the best one. Leather furniture restoration or custom furniture are frequently requested services where you can discuss adding your choice of piping, textures, unique cushions or bolsters. Another common one is outdoor furniture or your patio - exposure to the elements is tough even on sturdy materials, and upholsterers can make your beloved outdoor sofa look brand new again!

Sometimes you may not need new fabric though, and upholstery cleaning can go a long way. An experienced professional will be able to advise you on which is the way to go.

Furniture Repair & Antique Furniture Restoration


When it comes to antique furniture, you can’t just replace the piece with a new one of its kind. Even when it’s not very old, it’s a shame when a piece of furniture you love dearly breaks. You may need more than textiles to bring it back to life. Furniture restoration and repair go beyond fabrics and can involve other materials like wood or wicker, or even metal or steel!

Professionals who specialise in restoring antique furniture are experts at sanding, polishing and refinishing furniture to bring it back to its original state. Furniture repair can involve gluing, but also removing marks left on timber surfaces or a fresh coat of paint. Whatever injury your piece is suffering, our experts will be able to help.
