Uphostery - New look new life - Part 2
My little project to bring new life to these little gems is progressing well. After 3 weeks, the removal of countless staples, removal of old stuffing (aka as flock), new wadding, springs and the restuffing process the chairs are coming along very nicely. I was amazed at how taught you need to get the the hessian and calico, all while trying to hammer in the tacks...truly and art......

WOW Vicki, what a job to get it back to looking great. I can't believe how much work has to go in under the lovaly material. Glad you got the springs just right. I'm loving seeing the progress pictures. Please keep them coming.
