- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book provides extremely detailed, step-by-step instructions with photos and sketches for every step of the upholstery process. The author gives many tips along the way to help ensure a professional look and to help the reader to follow the best-practices. I've never upholstered a chair before, but after reading the entire book I'm ready to give it a try. If you are interested in learning how to upholster a chair (or any piece of furniture), I recommend reading this book.
