It is better to start repairing furniture with the arrangement of your workplace. It should be well lit and spacious. You also need to collect all the necessary tools and place them at hand. If your upholstery has damaged upholstery, it should be replaced (if it cannot be repaired). We will take care of the constriction with you.
Instructions
Step 1
First, buy the right amount of upholstery material. It is better not to rely on the eye, but to carefully measure the overtightened furniture. Now you can start removing the old upholstery. First evaluate the shape of the furniture being repaired, and then remove the old upholstery. Try to remember the places where the seams pass, because it is best to upholster furniture with new material along the old seams.
Step 2
Consumption of materials. Springs from old upholstery can sometimes be reused. Then you don't have to buy them, which will save you money and time.
Step 3
Furniture upholstery. For high-quality plating, if possible, use special literature to study in detail the methods of constriction. The constriction process is divided into several stages. First, it is necessary to make an internal constriction with a material that will serve as the initial fabric layer on the furniture. Gently stretch the upholstery fabric over the surface of the furniture so that nothing stands out anywhere, and also fasten the fabric to the furniture in parallel. We'll talk about fasteners later.
Step 4
When the inner constriction is finished, you can proceed to the outer constriction, which is the final stage of the constriction. The outer cladding must be done a little more carefully than the inner one. This must be done so as not to damage the rather delicate fabric of the inner upholstery. The outer cladding is made in the same way as the inner one.
Step 5
Use special staples as fasteners for fabric, which can be purchased on the construction market or in any hardware stores. For driving in staples, it is better to buy a construction stapler. Moreover, it will still be useful to you on the farm. As a last resort, you can use nails for upholstery.
