Design issues in the renovation of premises have recently received significant attention and resources. Because if you make an excellent renovation that does not match the design of the accessories in the room, then such renovation will not be much fun. The color scheme of the accessories included in it plays a fairly large role in design decisions. This is especially true for upholstered furniture. In this article, we’ll look at a way to help change the color scheme of upholstered furniture relatively inexpensively by changing its upholstery.
Why change the upholstery?
Of course, changing the design or color scheme is not the only reason to change the upholstery of furniture. It could also be:
- physical damage to the upholstery. Moreover, the material torn in several places needs either repair or complete replacement;
- material smeared with some kind of paint or something else that cannot be dry cleaned and requires replacement;
- the fact that the upholstery material is obsolete and other better materials have appeared.
Thus, it is much cheaper to change the upholstery than to buy new furniture, especially if the old one is of good quality and is in good condition.
Why matting
Modern industry provides a lot of options for upholstery materials. Such fabrics include:
- Velours;
- matting;
- Jacquard;
- Flock;
- Chenille.
Attention: The choice of material is largely determined by the priorities of the home owner. One of the most popular materials today is matting.
Let's look at its main advantages:
- Of all the materials presented, it has increased strength, which makes it very convenient for things that experience great physical stress.
- The matting is very well cleaned from various contaminants, which allows it to be used in public places.
- This material holds color well and is resistant to fading. It also has increased wear resistance to abrasion.
- The fabric is quite soft and easy to upholster.
That’s why this fairly reliable and inexpensive material is becoming so popular among upholstered furniture manufacturers. Moreover, it has a rich color scheme. This makes it possible to choose colors to suit different design styles.
Choosing a tool for upholstery
You don't need complicated tools to upholster furniture. If you have a single copy in front of you, then a standard sewing kit and a mechanical stapler will do just fine. If there is a lot of work, you can use an automatic stapler that runs on compressed air.
How to carry out the process
- To begin with, you should purchase the material.
- Then a pattern is made specifically for the product - according to its parameters. In this case, the cutting of the upholstery must be done so that there are no large extra pieces left.
- All that remains is to pull the matting and attach it with a stapler.
- Then we take a regular needle and thread and hem the small imperfections that have formed on the fabric.
If you do the upholstery yourself, then reupholstering the furniture will cost the owner of the room quite inexpensively.
