Bring Lunch. If you have any of the following, bring them along: Tack Hammer, carpenter square, tape measure, yardstick, staple lifter, shears, side cutter. (The shop will have some of the above available for sharing.)

Chair or Ottoman (a piece that you can carry). A photo of your piece should be e-mailed to the gallery upon registration to be evaluated by the instructor.

Covering Fabric may be purchased at a local fabric store (S.R. Harris; Mills End; Jo-Anne; etc.) You may also shop for fabric at Nancy's shop (1618 Central Ave NE; 612-840-1951)

Supplies will be available to purchase.
Students can bring their own supplies if they prefer.

I believe the best way to learn upholstery is by doing it with a trained instructor to demonstrate the process, step by step. Participants will bring a chair or ottoman of their choice to work on in class. You're encouraged to bring a chair that is not too difficult to ensure that the process is fun and not frustrating. (The instructor is available for consultation in regards to what is appropriate). Participants will get as far as they can in the 8 hour time frame and if interested the instructor will give instruction for progress that can be made at home.
