Default My 1st upholstery work in 16 years

My granddaughter uses this vanity stool at her desk. Her Dad brought it out last week to weld a broken spot, and left it here on accident. So Grandma did her magic with the expert help of Grampa, he picked the fabric. Great job on it too!

The seat was so flat and hard, no padding to speak of. I added a piece of 2" inch foam to fluff it up. I repainted the metal frame in a glossy black. I haven't upholstered anything since I retired 16 years ago. Glad to see I still got it.

Here are before and after photos:
