On both the chair and the bookcase I attached L shaped plates with a glue gun which I can screw down to the table. I attached a screw to each of the ladders legs so that it slots straight into the table and I can secure it from underneath.
I've been attaching tie downs to all parts of my set so none of it can sneakily move about whilst I'm shooting.

I've now stitched on the final fabric layer to the chair, it wasn't the easiest material to work with (quite a stiff cord) but it looks great so it was worth it. I cut individual panels of fabric for each section of the chair and stitched these on seperately so it is all securely fixed.
I also added the finished chair legs which I painted with gouache paint and secured with Araldite. I brushed a layer of Talcum powder over the whole surface to create a worn look alike to the bookcase. I've started to add foam onto the hard board base of the chair. I used Araldite to glue it in place where it sat flat against the wood but stitched areas where foam met foam, I was also able to manipulate the stitch to give shape to the foam.
There are no front legs yet because my current plan is to carve some ornate looking individual legs out of balsa wood. Next step is to cover the whole lot in foam and shape appropriately.
