How To Reupholster a Bar Stool
More in Decorating
Step 1: Remove the Fabric
Turn the barstool upside down, and use a flat-head screwdriver to remove the staples holding the fabric in place.
Step 2: Cut Out New Fabric
Pull the fabric off of the barstool, and use it as a template for cutting a new piece of upholstery fabric.
Step 3: Attach the New Fabric to the Stool
Lay the fabric face down, and place the stool upside down on top of it. Center the stool on the fabric, and begin rolling the fabric over the edges of the seat. Staple the fabric in place.
For corners, pull the corner material away from the seat. Press the sides in toward each other, and fold the material over the edge of the seat. Cut off any excess fabric, and staple the corners.
