In these 3 Episodes of Kim’s Upholstery Live, Join me as I upholster this Barrel Chair with some fun little details!
In Kim’s Upholstery Live Episodes 44, 45 and 46 you can follow along as I upholster this Barrel Chair. I have painted the frame using a homemade Chalk Paint in a medium gray. I have rubbed the finish with a steel wool to give the piece a smooth feel. We are now ready for fabrics. I have chosen a funky black and white fabric with a bold red contrast for my little chair. For the cushion detail, I decided to use a flat flange accent instead of an expected welt cord detail. I hope you enjoy the process.
