    Thank you for the tips on applying the edge trim.

  • @cmccain5512

    Thanks a lot. This is really helpful and it’s exactly what I was looking for. I am reupholstering the seat on a Gustavian daybed and I didn’t know what exactly to do next.

    I've taught myself Reupholstery over the last 5 year's and have a small Reupholstery business. And all the tips you've shown(being a professional) I'm so happy with myself that I actually do all these tricks. Something I learned in this video is to purchase a regulator. I was using a flat head screw driver for hot glue mistakes or tucking the hot glue back into the piping. I didnt even know regulators were a thing!

    Hi, a tip with removing 'hot glue' is using a cloth dampened with thinner, always test an off cut first.

    Excellent info, thanks for sharing. Possibly another video could show how to bring together the ends of the double welt on the arms, inner back, or outer back of this piece please? Thank you! :)

    Thank you so much for that, I have been using fabric glue, I'm not sure I have the confidence to use a glue gun as I usually make a mess. I didn't know you could purchase an industrial one, something for me to look into. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge and experience.

    Thanks for the words of wisdom & experience. What about using decorative tacks spaced out about 2 inches apart? Is that a result of a time period or from a fad? I will be putting gimp trim on tomorrow. It reminds me of putting pin stripe on a car.

    What do you think of using an awl in place of a regulator?
