Baker Sofa Upholstery - when you visit various blogs about the home will find a lot of interesting house designs and also certainly convenient, and blogs Home Design Inspiration there is one of these blogs that discuss dengn very complete, we have thousands of ready information you get with less free :) okay now we will discuss Baker Sofa Upholstery please read through:
I had started work on doing the upholstery myself, but the tetanus side-effects really wiped me out for those first two months or so. We ended up buying a car this year (did I mention that earlier?), so one day in October when my resolve and spirits were both low, I loaded up the sofa and took a little day trip down to my trusty upholsterers back in Maryland. It takes about three hours to drive there, but I stopped along the way to do some antiquing and Amish-food-eating with my sister, so it was a fun day trip. :)
Jensen's only charges $525 for a sofa job (about a third the price of my upholsterer here in the city!), but I still felt a little guilty for not upholstering the sofa myself, especially since I mentioned here that I would. I have to say though, it was worth every penny to free up that time and energy when things were a little rocky, health-wise. (If you're looking for an in-depth upholstery tutorial, I did a whole series here: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5)
I ended up doing the contrasting welt we talked about and I really love it. I found four yards of this dark teal (almost black) Sunbrella fabric at Home Fabrics in Arizona for about $4 a yard. They have this store in California, Utah and Nevada too, I think, and it is a treasure trove!!! I save about half my suitcase for hauling my finds home to NY each trip we take.
I'm so glad I found that Sunbrella. I know it will hold up really well and I think the color is great with the pretty green velvet I scored at JEM here in the city.
We've had the sofa back for about eight weeks now and it has taken kid spills like a boss.

Baker Sofa Upholstery
I've been meaning to share photos of the new upholstery on our vintage Baker sofa forever!I had started work on doing the upholstery myself, but the tetanus side-effects really wiped me out for those first two months or so.
