Reupholstering Workshops – Give Your Furniture New Life

Transform tired, worn-out furniture into stunning, one-of-a-kind pieces with our hands-on Reupholstering Workshops brought to you by Women’s Carpentry. These classes will teach you everything you need to know — from tear-down to the final, beautiful finish.

NOTE: This class is designed for furniture that has no cushions or pillows. I will have seperate class that will teach upholstery that includes sewing. This class uses staples and tacks.

Contact me and send me a picture of your project so I can make sure that your project fits this class. I will also direct you to where to get the material you need. Understand Fabric cost can add up quickly. it runs $15-$90 a yard. It all depends on your taste.

Also let me know if you are looking to do more upholstering at home, I can provide the tools for purchase. If your project requires the tacks and special trim there will additional material charge.

Perfect for anyone new to reupholstering, this method is simple, satisfying, and fun. In just two days, you’ll learn how to:

• Safely disassemble and remove old fabric without damaging your piece.
• Select and purchase new fabric — understanding weight, durability, and style.
• Take accurate measurements and make paper patterns for perfect coverage.
• Use staple guns to secure fabric directly to the frame for a crisp, clean look.
• Tighten and repair loose joints for a sturdy finish.
• Add small refinishing touches to wood or trim for a complete transformation.

By the end, you’ll have a professionally refreshed piece of furniture that you’ll be proud to show off.
