Description
An introduction to traditional and modern upholstery skills for beginners. This skills-packed upholstery course is designed to introduce the tools, materials and core techniques to budding upholsterers. Working on two projects over three days, students will re-upholster an Edwardian drop-in dining chair or similar, using traditional horse hair and hessian. We will then move on to a more modern piece such as a footstool using foam and staples. The Introduction to Upholstery serves as an important first-step for students considering taking up upholstery either as a hobby or to train professionally with our AMUSF upholstery diploma.
