- Hi friends,
In this video, I show you the basics of furniture upholstery/reupholstery. **Please note, yes I get this is not the greatest video and I should not have used packing tape. You can still get a lot of great info here and you can check out my blog post below too. Thanks!

Important to centre the fabric as well, especially with stripes! Might be obvious to some but not others. 😊
Thank you so much for the tutorial video. I bought some really cool French fabric with fleur-de-lis designs and the dinning room set took another step up look. Thank you so much.
Thank you for your video and very clear directions. You really helped with our diy project!
I love the fabric you chose! Looks great!!
I like this. Simple and fast. Works for me.
I’m so happy that I’ve found your tutorials! Love 💛
I like how you did the corners and I really appreciate the video- the part I needed the most help with. But I wouldn't put tape on the underside of the cushion as it will simply fall off. Staple parallel to the edge about 1/4" in and you will be fine.
Great info... You refreshed my memory on doing it and gave me an idea with the tape.
Great little details. Now I can start adding upholstery to my furniture designs. 😌 And you are adorable! 😍 Subscribed!
Thank you! Great demo!
The corners came out great.
Great stuff and learning with you was educational. Good one GOD bless you and your family.Amen
Nice 👍 thank you for the video! I like the idea 💡 just need the filling materials. You match the chairs material with your dress 👗 nice 😊
Thank you!
Great. Thanks
Such simple language. I loved it lol #Repeatingoverandover lol
Nice and neat job
Wow, great!
Great video! I wish there was more information on why you did certain things. Why do you use cotton batten? Why do you start in the middle? Explaining things help to understanding.
Very helpful
Great!!
Your good upholstery work I like 👍 because I am also sofamaker upholsterer
Nice video. FYI, the cotton material used on top of the cushion just below the cover is called "batting" not "batton".
exactly what I was screaming at the video as soon as she said that word. she doesn’t even know the correct term for the materials how much can I learn? 😂
Just a good tip. When getting the corners. I like to use button thread doubled, make a gathering stitch in the fabric of the corners, and ease in those gathers. You will have no extra bull to staple and makes a beautiful, smooth corner. ❤️
could you please share a link to some video where it's done like this? Thanks!
Could you please use words us normal people can understand? What you said sounds very helpful but I don't have the slightest clue what many of the words you used even mean.
I be think stripes is her favorite pattern
Bravo 👍
You can us glue gun at the end right? Or just tape.
Oh dear!
Why didn't you use backing fabric (looks like canvas) to cover the underside... It would have been more professional looking than tape and not harder.
Hi, I am upholstering a v berth cushion for our boat. It consists of two triangle pieces put together to make one triangle . Do you have any suggestions for folding the Fabric around the angles?
Sailrite has a video about this: czcams.com/video/PVDsT8QWxko/video.html
no
Easy..
Perfect example for my pupils how NOT to reupholster. 😊 thank you so much.
How many yards of fabric did you use?
The fabric is lovely but it seemed a little odd with the tape. I have 2 chairs I want to reupholster.
I wish you would have shown taking the actual seat off.
you took time with the corners but used clear boxing tape underneath... welp now im a pro at this.
Why not fold the fabric under and staple it, just like the original green fabric? It's much cleaner looking and not hard to do.
Tape?
First..you forgot to glue the piece of foam on the board..second..is important to glue the dacron and foam together..the finish of the seat cushion doesn't look good..Also black cambric material. Underneath of the seat cushion looks more professional
...and 3rd she is teaching basic upholstery like the heading states.
@@michelemazurek3786 i am learning basic upholstery now and thought id check out youtube vids meantime but tbh this, like the rest ive seen, are dreadful- think they are hiding how to do it properly so the upholstery business does not get overwhelmed with new upholsterers!
Hi
Didn't see end of video before I commented. You do not use tape on the underside of the seat. The extreme material is trimmed off.
Im far from an expert but that underside looks horrible
And who is looking on the underside, this is a simple DIY at home.
She didn’t remove the old fabric??
Stripy seat, stripy jumper lol
Where on earth is there a "foam shop"?
The cloth match her t-shirt.
As slow as tortoise. But 👍
I guess there's a first time for everybody!!😤
Whatt?!?! Why didn't she just take chewing gum to stick the excess fabric on?
Good evening mam, my name is MONU nirwan I'm from India I am sofa set upholstery workar 15 year's experience in this field I need a job please help me
All I see is stripes...even the plant looks like stripes. And the sticky tape at the end is not something I would want to do. Why not just remove the excess material? Sorry, but I won't be taking any tips from this.
What was the sticky tape for?
Please. This person is not giving any upholstery tips. Please. This is not how upholsterers work. Terrible.
Lol I was thinking the EXACT same thing. VERY misleading title. Lol I guess you get what you pay for.
Obviously this is a DIY, it’s common sense, she states nowhere that this is a professional job. Just unnecessary and quite rude.
I mean....if it works
Dudet. Most of us are just doing this for a home project. This is more than helpful
This is exactly the type of video I was looking for tbh. I don’t own a furniture shop, I’m just looking to upholster a bench in my kitchen.
You take to long quit repeating yourself…you can rewind the video to watch…
