- PART 9 of 10 - I've been documenting how to reupholster a wingback chair--everything from tearing it down, adding webbing, springs, and more! In this video, I show you how I finished off the back of the seat, the outside wings, and the outside arms. I ran out of fabric so I'll have to add just one more video to this series: finishing the cushion, legs, and dust cover! Subscribe to stay posted on the finally of this wingback chair makeover! :) A big thanks to Arrow Fastener for sponsoring this video and allowing me to use their T50 upholstery stapler!

You did a great job. I been doing upholstery since I was 9 years old. My mother did it out of our house when I was a kid. I love re-purposing furniture and giving it new life. If you carefully remove the old fabric, mark it and you can use it as a pattern for the new fabric.
Wow, since you were 9! That's awesome! I can just imagine the quality of your pieces. You're right--keeping the old pieces is perfect for making new pieces! I chose not to keep the old pieces because I wanted to learn how to make the cuts from scratch. WHAT was I thinking?! :)
I'm kinda bummed that we haven't seen the finished product yet. Also, the name of the instructor.
It's looking great! Hope to see the completed outcome, soon.
When is part 10 coming? I'm hooked!!!
I binged this whole series today! I couldn’t find part 10. Hope to see it soon if possible! 😁😁 love your channel! 💙🤍
I've followed your entire journey upholstering this chair and I must say that it's totally turning out GORGEOUS 😍😍😍
Thank you!! I adore it, too! I am going to make a footstool to go with it so that I can put my feet up and knit in the chair! :)
@@ThriftDiving After all the work that you've put in you definitely deserve to put your feet up. Merry Christmas Queen!
When paying some one to Reupholster a piece of furniture is so worth the money, there's so much hard work that goes into it! Not as simple as some might think. Thank you for sharing!!!!
The bold and the beautiful! You pick some bold projects and they are beautiful just like you!
Aww, thank you, Jacqueline!! :)
Serena you are so nice you did a great job and took the time to show us everything. Nice teacher that let you also show his tricks. Come on waiting for the last video. Stay safe. I am watching all of your videos. I love your spirit and transparency. !!
I am so upset this is the fabric you chose... but god bless because the patience is insane.
Oh gosh you got sooo far. Good job doing you’re best to finish . The fabric is beautiful. I’ll tell y, I have a whole new appreciation for my furniture and why an upholsterer charges what they do.
That one little miss in the back with a short of fabric is excellent! SPECIALLY BEING YOUR FIRST CHAIR! WOW
Wow! I watched all of the videos in this series, and you are superwoman. I applaud your determination and time you spent making this chair look AMAZING. Your instructor was so nice and gave so much knowledge. It was apparent that both you and he we're decicated and passionate about this project. The fact that you tore the chair down completely, definitely showed your commitment and giving 100% to making that chair look as great as you made it look. So inspiring. Thank you so much for sharing this experience, I look forward to video #10 and the completed project.
That chair has or had quality construction. Done a bunch of them over the years. Now you know how hard or time consuming it is to reupholster one. And how only a real professional can make one that stands the test of time and has lines that one will take awe of.
I have enjoyed watch you put that chair back together, I think I would have given up on it, but you hung in there and it's beautiful
You are amazing, I would never try this but I enjoyed watching you. Have a merry Christmas
LOL, Emma, if I knew then what I know now, I might not have attempted this either! HA! :) Merry Christmas!!
Thanks for replying, I feel as I know you from your videos.
I was just thinking the very thing you said at about 12.45 - there is ton of video - about 3 whole sessions - about removing all the old fabric and padding etc and then this one video which is the MOST IMPORTANT PART- finishing the back and arms. Now I must say you did an absolutely FANTASTIC JOB. Honestly I cant believe it, but I do wish these final steps were done slower not on high speed -and showed the same amount of detail that was shown in taking it all apart.
Funny thing is that Im refinishing a very different kind of chair (where seat is separate from the short back, so there are no springs, no sewing - and it is MUCH easier). I came on line just to find out how to build up and make the front edge softer so you dont feel the wood at back of knees when I found this series.
I NEVER would have watched this had I known it would be so many installments because now I've given the entire evening over to watching video rather than covering the seat!!! But it seems once into it - you want to see it thro to the end. I loved the detail, which will help me with a different chair I will do in future (although this series likely has scared me away from that level of commitment).
Anyway - Im amazed and proud of you for finishing the chair on your own. I think most would have put it in garage and not finished it without the help of the teacher. Ive had 2 chairs to cover for 10 YEARS and the new fabrics have been draped over and pinned on. You did a great job and I hope you are proud of yourself!!!
OMG! I have a whole new respect for why it costs so much to have furniture upholstered! Kudos to You, I wouldn't have the patience.
Loves it finally I get to see the almost finished product lovely lovely an beautiful made
Thanks, Amanda! Yep, feet need some new stain and a good sanding first, and the cushion, and adjusting the back so it doesn't fray on me. It's soooo close! :)
I was wondering when we'd see how the chair was coming along. It's looking great, I can't wait to see itcompleted. Tfs and Merry Christmas to you and your family.😊
Thanks, Darnia! Girl, I know...I was sooo nervous about working on this chair, afraid I wouldn't know where to begin, but I figured it out! I still need to fix the back, but for now, it looks great! Thanks for watching and Merry Christmas to you and yours! :)
Hello there. I am commenting to encourage, and support you, in the completion of this project. This series has been a dynamic help to me. Please finish the project if possible. Thank you! 👍🏾
I was literally thinking about how this chair was getting on yesterday while on Pinterest! SO happy to see this!!!!
LOL, Christopher! Who know that we would be so much in sync! :) Glad I could get this posted. It was taking so long!
Girl, you are doing a great job. I have installed many yards of carpet in houses, boats , ect. You will find that on your next project you will complete it in half the time. A little tip on your fabric, mart a direction on the back with an arrow as you unroll. This will help you keep the grain or nap in the same direction. Again great job I wish you could have worked with me. You just get it.
This chair looks marvelous - looking forward to Part 10!
Yes Serena!!! I loved this series so much, Ive learnt a lot from you and my house has changed a lot this year!!!! Love the chair!!!!!
YAY! Glad you learned a lot from it! I did, too, thanks to my amazing upholstery teacher! I think I am interested in doing more chairs, but definitely none of this caliber again any time soon. LOL
I really, really, REALLY enjoyed this series! I’ve recently scored a $6.99 wingback chair at the thrift store. It was $10.00 but I asked for a discount because it needed a slight repair that I was sure my husband/ son and I could handle. I learned a lot from you and can’t wait to find the perfect fabric to get started. And guess what? It reclines too! Needless to say, I’m so excited! Thanks for the info!!!
It looks so gorgeous! I’m so proud of you!
Thank you, Mim!!
Love the whole process but I'll choose another material cus the point is to create something unique from a old piece of furniture. Otherwise I'll buy the same thing and avoid one year of work. Don't take me wrong I love your dedication and instruction
You have tons of patience.... Hats off to u
Wow you did a great job. You make things look so easy. Thank you for sharing with everyone.
I NEED PART 10!!😆
Beautiful color and it turned out so Pretty!
You are a brave lady....this looks great for your first chair. Blessings and MERRY CHRISTMAS! from the middle of California.....
Beautiful. ❤❤❤❤
Wow! you are amazing!!! I'm not sure how you did it but this looks like a dream! I'd love to have a chair like that in my home!
Amazing!! I love it! You inspire me to want to refinish furniture. I have been watching the progession of this chair and it is breathtaking!!
You did an amazing job and have patience that surpasses my own.
Sooo gorgeous!! Love that fabric!
I stumbled across your channel today and binged the entire chair series. Hoping the finishing touches go well, and looking forward to seeing those ... eventually! 😅
Seriously, fantastic job!
Honestly the chai looks amazing so far! I love your determination! Cant wait to see how it looks with a cushion!!
Thank you, Shazza! I forgot to mention in the video that the seat cushion is a bit too large now, since the back of the seat is so thickly stuffed. I'll have to trim a few inches off. Hope it goes well! I'll film all of that. Just waiting on the few extra yards of fabric to come!
Oh no, that sounds like extra work but i bet the chair is going to be so comfortable to sit on! Im also very eager to see what pillow or throw you are going to use to style the chair! You’re so close to the end! Good luck with everything :)
Oh congratulations! Ha hecho un super trabajo, es muy dificil tapizar un mueble felicitaciones el resultado es increible, gracias por compartir su trabajo. Excelente!
I need to see the finished product 😅💕💕💕 I just fell in love with your channel
Hi there! I watched the 9 parts in one go. It was great and quite scary, i must say. How do i know how much fabric i need to buy? Thanks for the video. xxx

Looks beautiful, I have the exact chair. I'm going to try to get mine started over the summer as it seems to be very time consuming. Thank you for sharing
Are you going to do part 10 ? I would really like to see it
I am!! I got side tracked with other projects but it will be coming soon, promise! 😀

This is commitment. I would have been there for your 98th episode of the wingback.... but 2018 will go down as the year you conquered centuries-long-old trade and made the wingback you B*TCH!!! yessssss im here for it.

How much fabric do you think you used?
You are so brave.
HA!! That's the right word: brave. Girl, I was nervous to do any of this on my own! But I think my upholstery teacher will be proud! I'll have to send him the final pics once I'm done. :)
When will see the finished product?

THANK YOU.
Was their ever a part ten
Is there a part 10?
Wow 👍👌💯
How much fabric did you use?
it's been a while...is there a part 10???
Will you finish this series
Yes!! LOL. Eventually! I have the cushion left to do. I've not been motivated to do it because I have other projects more pressing. But I WILL be getting to it, I promise!
Awesome job! Do you have an estimate as to how much did you spend? Thanks!
Merry Xmas to all 🎅🤗
Merry Christmas!!
@@ThriftDiving thanks ☺️
I took a class on recovering a Wing back chair,and I was so critical of myself. We usually are. I will never do another one!
what you need is an air valve to blow air in to take out the wrinkles
Where did you get the coconut fiber?
how much fabric dose it take to finish....
So did you ever finish it
Sadly, I haven't finished the seat because I ran I to the issue of the seat cushion not fitting, and I'm not sure how I'll get it to fit after the new stuffing and layers went on the chair. I am going to figure it out, though. Stay tuned!
Where is part ten?
Muito lindo!
No part 10?!?!
totally don't want to reupholster anything after FF through these videos
Where is part 10???
I bet you wished you hadn’t chosen velvet for your first effort. Good job though.
Did you ever so part 10?
Where's part 10? :(
What happened to part 10? :(
omg, THAT many videos..... and there is no part 10/final ???????
I got stuck on the last video! LOL. Sorry about that, I will be finishing it up soon! I just have to cover the seat cushion. It doesn't quite fit and I'm trying to figure out if I need to get a new one or if I can fit the old one by cutting it down!
please lit me know... I'm working on a project..
You are so beautiful merry Christmas
Aww, thanks, Maggie!
that's a little to much work for now just want a dresser or table, to begin with. keep it up your beautiful
you know the teacher would have done it in a 8 hour shift
I know!! I asked him how long it would have taken a professional and he said 5 hours! 😂😂😂
I he watched the videos of you reaphostering the wingback chair up to part 9 but now can't find part 10!!! Got to see finished chair , come on girl don't leave me hanging!! No part 10 I'm going to unsubscribe !!! And I'm new to this channel .😂🤔
