    Very pretty and Elegant. I am an upholster and I think you do pretty good just going by what you see. That's so wonderful that you have the passion. Keep it up!

      Thank you! This means a lot to me coming from someone who’s proficiency is the skill I’m attempting to do. ❤️

    I LOVED this video! It’s hard to find step by step upholstery videos that don’t graze over the details. The pros want you to buy their courses and I just want to save an antique without taking out a mortgage. Please do more

    Wow you are SO patient. Great job. So I the material you just used is the same original green velvet from the 70's that I have on my french provincial chairs that I want to recover. Thanks for the tips! Omg I don't have the patience you do, I am going to just go over the who chair lol. Great work!

    Some good tips that will be useful when I reupholster my grandmother's antique parlor chairs that my dog got a hold of when he was a puppy.

      Aww that’s amazing. I wish I had something that belonged to my grandparents. Best wishes refinishing the parlor chairs! ❤️

    Omg! Yes! Thank you so much!!! I have a similar chair I bought for 14.99.
    It’s a keeper and I’ve done others but was so scared of this project. You are so right! Thanks for helping me know I can do it! Great job.

    Love this chair and I love this video ! I’ve done a bit of upholstery but it still intimidates me every time!🙄
    Great video❣️

    Thank you for this video series. I just got a wingback chair and need to reupholster it. You did a great job. But, I don’t understand why you chose to cover the cushions in such a casual fabric! The velvet is beautiful!

    • @GirasolVintage
      @GirasolVintage  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Trust me I wanted to do all velvet but I miscalculated and bough too little fabric and when I went back it was sold out 😩

    Nice job, you explained everything very well. Now I feel empowered to do my own re-upholstery on a similar set of chairs.

    What did you do for the seat pillow? Is there a video for that?

    • @GirasolVintage
      @GirasolVintage  ปีที่แล้ว

      No video for that. But I used the old fabric as a template for the new seat pillow. Thanks for asking! 🙏

  • @sarahdipaola7831

    Why didn’t you show how to do the arms? That’s what I’m looking for!

      I thought I had the footage for that part but I guess I did not. My bad, will do better in the near future!
