Welcome to Monarch Studios.
Kia ora and welcome! You've just landed at Monarch Studio, where comfort meets creativity, and where every cushion, squab, and soft furnishing is crafted with heart and soul right here in beautiful Tauranga.
Whether you're here for a custom makeover, a touch of luxury for your living room, or that perfect finishing piece for your bach, you've come to the right place. We're all about transforming everyday spaces into something uniquely “you” – warm, welcoming, and stylish (but still comfy enough for an afternoon nap on the couch).
What We Do – Our Services
We don’t just make things look nice – we make them last. Each piece is made-to-order, so you're getting something that fits your space, not just what's sitting on a shelf. Here’s what we can help with:
Squab Creation & Recovery
Perfect for boats, baches, campervans, window seats, or alfresco living. We custom-make squabs and can recover existing ones too.
Basic Upholstery
Give your well-loved furniture a new lease on life with our upholstery refresh service. Think bar stools, ottomans, dining chairs and more.
Fabric Sourcing & Advice
Not sure what fabric to use? We’ll help you choose something beautiful and functional.
Our Products – Made With Love
As well as custom orders, Monarch Studio offers a growing range of hand-crafted products you can order directly. Everything is made right here in Tauranga with love, care, and a good cup of coffee on the workbench.
Faux Fur Throws
Snuggly. Stylish. Seriously Soft.
Our faux fur throws are a winter must-have — but honestly, you’ll want them around all year. They look lush draped over a sofa, thrown across the bed, or wrapped around your shoulders on a chilly night
Scatter Cushions
Dress up your lounge. Add some personality. Mix & match like a pro.
We offer a selection of ready-made cushions in trending colours and timeless neutrals – or you can design your own!
Fabric Offcuts & Packs
Love a little DIY? We offer offcuts and curated fabric bundles perfect for crafters, sewers, or kids’ projects. Just ask what we’ve got in the scrap basket – no two are the same!
Who We Are – A Bit About Us
Founded and run by Chelsea – a self-confessed textile nerd and all-round design enthusiast – Monarch Studio is a home-based business with a big passion for quality, comfort, and individuality.
We're not a giant factory churning out cookie-cutter products. We're the little studio that could – hands-on, locally focused, and proudly New Zealand owned and operated. Chelsea brings a playful mix of creativity, attention to detail, and a love for fabrics into every piece we create.
Monarch Studio is where design meets down-to-earth practicality. No fluff (except in the cushions).
