  • I found these chairs on the road. I picked them up only because of how easy they are to reupholster. Then I left them sitting outside because I didn't have space in my workroom for them and that actually helped the stripping process.
    This could actually be a NO-sew project. I just made it more complicated by putting in a racing stripe.

    Steel wool “0000” is the finest steel wool and used in furniture refinishing because it cleans the wood without scratching. Hardware stores carry it.

    I am glad I combed through to this video. I have two chairs like this, in really great shape I just want a fabric change but I do not want to mess with the fabric that exist there already. This gave me a way to approach the chairs I have. Another great informative video. 🎯💞

    I really appreciate the close in camera work in this video! I have do a little bit of upholstery work every once in a while, but I always review on UA-cam before I start a new project. This is so good!! The cuts around the arms and the corners - so good❣️
    Thank you

    Take to the dump? The furniture sold these days is cheap particle board, and these are solid wood and hand made!

    Thank you. I have 2 Victorian chairs that both have rips so I'm going to have to do my first reupholstery - eek! This video is SUPER helpful. Do you have another that shows how to attach the welt please?

      Hmmm. Let me think, I’m sure one of my videos shows the welt. I’ll get back to you. 😃

      Thank you Martin! I looked it up, and couldn't determine the style definitively.

      I'd love to know if there's a chart or something I can access.

    • @martinham1409
      @martinham1409 Рік тому

      Either style, nice job. They are modern and factory not bench made. You did them proud.

      Nice! I’ve been trying to reupholster a similar chair but I’ve spent HOURS getting the staples out of each nook and cranny 🤬
