If you love a project but find the thought of trying a full furniture restoration too much to bear, this fabulous guide to reupholstering is just what you need.
In The Upholsterer’s Step-by-Step Handbook, author Alex Law provides a full, informative guide to making over furniture using both traditional and modern methods.
Chapter 1 begins with a full rundown of the materials and tools needed. Rather than a list and brief explanation, Alex takes time to explain each clearly. This conversational tone, with detailed information and thorough advice runs throughout the book making it easy for even the absolute beginner to understand.
Projects are instructed clearly with colour illustrations breaking down the steps. Full colour photographs of finished projects are also included.
The clarity of the instructions, the detail and explanation given to techniques and the additional advice and professional tips make this a definitive guide that you will refer to again and again.
