Basic Reupholstry

That chair with the tired cushion. The stool you keep meaning to deal with. The headboard that's been sitting in your basement for two years. This workshop is the push you needed.

In this beginner-friendly, hands-on session, you'll learn the fundamental steps of re-upholstering a small piece of furniture. You'll strip out old fabric and staples, cut and attach fresh material, and walk out with a finished piece to take home.
