The Chic & Unique training program took students over a seven week period and taught them
basic carpentry, design mosaics, antique refinishing, and other upcycling techniques.
This catalogue showcases the products completed by Chic & Unique students and their mentors.
All proceeds will support the programs and services of SIRCH Community Services.
All Chic & Unique paint and wax finishes are VOC free and environmentally friendly. Class
participants used a chalk based paint and a clay based paint and the wax is all natural made
from nut oils and beeswax.
