    Can you ever just put new fabric over the old if the chair isnt old and gross ? Like rip off the trim and just apply new fabric?

      @kevinbaxter607 Před rokem

      Hello, I have a set of 4 chairs very similar in appearance/style to these in your tutorial.
      They are probably 20 years old and the webbing has disintegrated so the seat cushions are sagging badly. The seats have 5 springs and webbing top and bottom.
      The original upholstery is still in serviceable condition, and I wish to salvage it. I'd hoped to simply remove the seat cushions and reweb, but there are no screws to be found holding the seat on.
      Have you any advice as to how I might remove the seat cushions without destroying the fabric, please? I wish I could attach a pic to show you, but I do not know how...? Thank you in advance!

    Very good video.
    Not sure about the paint you use but you might suggest to your viewers to clean chair first with at least a TSP mixture, I use naphtha in case there is any wax but I’ve been finishing wood for over 50yrs so I’m used to harsh chemicals.
    Loved your video. I’ll be trying to upholster a similar chair for the first time.

    Hi there. I love your work. It os simple and clean easy to understand. I have this great dinning chairs that I've had forever and i refuse to go to a store and buy expensive cheap ones to replace them. My questions is how much roughly you spent on materials. Thank you

    • @JamiRayVintage
      @JamiRayVintage  Před 5 lety

      Thanks! It depends on the materials used. The fabric used in this video is drop cloth. Cost about $10.00 for enough to do both chairs.

    Hello, beautiful job! What type of hot glue did you use? I have used hot glues, and have had trim lift off, any suggestions? Thanks so much, keep up the with the awesome work/ tutorials they are clear and doable for the average diy'er.🌸

    • @JamiRayVintage
      @JamiRayVintage  Před 7 lety +2

      Keri Stevenson I use high temp glue. I usually buy it at Home Depot. The key is to make sure it has enough and its evenly distributed and hold it until its dry.

  • @haylielloyd5024
    @haylielloyd5024 Před 3 lety

    Hey Jami, how have these held up? I have a set of cane dining chairs I had to upholster the backs of. I have seen videos that use webbing for support but my fabric is light color so the webbing’s shadow shows through the fabric so I’m worried if I don’t use the webbing it won’t have enough support. These turned out beautifully and I love the fabric. I can’t wait to find a set like this and try this out!

    • @JamiRayVintage
      @JamiRayVintage  Před 3 lety +1

      I sold them so I’m not 100% sure but I’ve done a lot like this and the ones I’ve kept have held up great, even with my 5 kids

  • @sarablaine3179
    @sarablaine3179 Před 6 lety

    great video on how to upholster a Queen Anne chair - question - what size staples are you using in the air staple gun? I was using tacks and see that the staples work very well. Also - the chair I am working on had the fabric folded in on itself for added support - does that really make a difference?

    • @JamiRayVintage
      @JamiRayVintage  Před 6 lety

      The folded fabric helps to keep it from ripping out. But since I’ve gone to using a pneumatic stapler I haven’t had an issue with that. The staples are 1/2” 18 gauge.

    what do you do if there is a little piece of upholstery on the arm rest as well?

    • @JamiRayVintage
      @JamiRayVintage  Před 6 lety

      I usually save the batting so I know how padded it was and staple a piece of fabric over that, then glue on trim the same way with my hot glue gun.

      fairytalefashionista I haven't used all the paints on the market. But compared to Annie Sloan I like the price and the color selection better for Fairy Chalk Mother. I also feel like it drips less but that maybe just because it's what I am used to. I sell it on my website www.jamirayvintage.com

    @janmyers Před 7 lety +1

    Jami, I loved watching your video until you got to the hot glue gun and the trim. I'm about to do a chair for my living room that I purchased for $20. The seat needs some work before I can try to upholster it, so I need to figure out how to make the seat comfy. I will be using cording in the same fabric, so that's why I was surprised with your finishing. However, I then read the notes you posted and saw this video was an "easy no-sew tutorial ..." so I should have known you wouldn't be using cording. I have more confidence now that I've watched your video. Thanks for this and many other things I've learned from you!

    • @JamiRayVintage
      @JamiRayVintage  Před 7 lety

      Jan Myers I am so glad! There are lots of videos on how to do piping that hopefully will be helpful. I use the gimp trim because it's easier for me.

    I loved how you distressed the chairs and added grain cloth, that was perfect, however, not too crazy about the trim. Would you have double corded the edging with the same grain cloth you used for the chair? I believe the trim is too dark for the decor and is standing out. Sorry.
