In this video tutorial you will learn how to reupholster a dining room chair with a fully upholstered seat that is not removable. I will show you how to pad the seat using 2” foam, and a 1 oz. bonded Dacron. To attach the fabric we will be using a cardboard tack strip which goes on before the padding.
