How to Reupholster a Chair

Bradley: Alright, I'm back.

Tracy: Oh, yay. Perfect.

Bradley: Where we at?

Tracy: The chairs that we found are fantastic. They're black and they really don't need much except new fabric on the seat. So Bradley and I are just going to unscrew the seats, pull them off, wrap around fabulous fabric, and screw them back in. Easy peasy.

Tracy: What I like about this, having the black side out, is you know, we all drop things on furniture and what not and the black will hide stains more.

Tracy: Now, let's pull this here.

Bradley: Tight?

Tracy: Yeah, so you can really kind of man handle a little bit. And I'm going to recommend that we pull it really, really, really tight cause this curb is going to be gorgeous on the chair.

Tracy: Would you put a staple right there?

Bradley: Right here?

Tracy: Tada! Look at what you did!

Bradley: This is nice, now we got to do this one.

Tracy: Here sit on it.

Bradley: This is great.

Tracy: Here, let's sit on it. Uh, whose butt's too big now? (Laughter)

Bradley: Alright.

Tracy: So I saved the screws and I put them in with the tape so we didn't lose them.

Bradley: Here we go.

Tracy: Awesome, look at that, its sucking up great. Another one.

Bradley: Cool, nice.

Tracy: What I love about this is the hounds tooth really pulls out, you know what I mean? You really see all the black.

Bradley: Yeah, it's good.

Tracy: Alright get up we have painting to do.

Bradley: Yeah, just checking the fit, just checking the fit.
