Join us for a hands-on upholstery education class where you'll learn skills you can bring home to your own project, by working on a French Chair! Students are encouraged to bring their own French (or similar style) chair, or request Unsprung source one for them. This class is perfect for beginners and those with some experience alike. Under the expert guidance of professional upholsterers, you'll learn the step-by-step process of reupholstering — from removing old fabric and padding to applying fresh fabric and finishing touches.
In this small-group workshop, you’ll get personalized instruction and tips to help you tackle every step with confidence. By the end of the class, you'll walk away with a beautifully restored chair and the skills to take on your next upholstery project at home.
Space is limited, so sign up today and get ready to transform your furniture into a one-of-a-kind piece!
