Established in 2012 near Lake Annecy in the French Alps “Le Boudoir des Étoffes” works alongside with its dedicated team. Specializing in fine upholstery and luxury fabrics, it has garnered a reputation for tackling complex designer pieces, consistently delivering exceptional results.

About Céline Vanier

Hi there, my name is Céline Vanier and my speciality is Upholstery: I'm a professional upholsterer. I'm also very well known as @the_girl_with_a_hammer on IG. I started my own upholstery business in 2012 near Annecy Lake (French Alps) where I also teach upholstery. I create "Le Boudoir des Étoffes",a workshop, a shop and website selling luxury fabrics and wallpaper too.. Basicaly everyday I reupholster, upholster or cover something with fabric: a chair, a headboard, a sofa, or even walls. Throughout the years I’ve become specialised in tricky complex designer pieces and now I feel like here is almost no piece I cannot do or redo. I really like upholstery challenges. Et bien sûre je parle français si jamais ;)
