    Hi Lauren. I'm a retired upholsterer, running my shop for 28 years. That band around the bottom of the chairs is called double welt. The trim around the sewing that people might call piping is what we in the biz call welt. For ripping the skirt off I used to use pliers and roll it up around them. We use an Osborne staple knocker to lift staples and diagonal cutters to lift the remaining staple if there is any.

    These are my favorite of all your Velvet chair flips. They look brand new. I would have been a buyer! I love the color, like REALLY love it!! And the color change at the bottom doesn’t bother me at all. It is subtle and could easily be a part of the design. Thanks for doing another flip. The overalls are stinking cute on you! 💕 You sure looked happy today. A sparkle in your eyes. So good to see.

    You could get more profit if ya chaulk paint the chairs! Like a pretty white color! Research chaulk painting fabric for instructions on watering down the paint and softening the fabric! You can add some decorative gold or nickle studs to the front bottom skirt also that would look cute. My sister has a store where she sells her flipped items!

    • @joelbrynna
      @joelbrynna ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That is definitely doable just more time consuming. Some chairs require it as the fabric doesn’t always wrap completely around the bottom of the chair. Whenever I can though I tear off the skirt instead
