Скачать или смотреть Midcentury Chair Upholstery with Cotton | Step by Step Guide

In this video, I upholster the seat and seat back of a vintage Tell City captain’s chair, part of a six-chair midcentury dining set from circa 1960. I used traditional cotton padding instead of modern foam to preserve the piece's original comfort and character. The chair’s owner, Patrick Cassidy, did the excellent refinishing with my guidance throughout the process. Patrick is also the brother-in-law of my co-producer, Brandon Hylton.

Brandon stepped behind the camera for this one, a shift from my usual self-shot approach, and helped make quick work of the day so I could focus on the upholstery. This video highlights time-honored techniques applied to a classic piece of American furniture design.
