Woodworking with Upholstery
The upholstery industry has been in existence since the Victorian Era. Upholstery is the process of covering furniture in fabric or leather and using padding, springs and webbing to give it shape. After the wood frame is created, the upholstery can be designed and constructed for that piece of furniture. Upholstery training skills can be used to start an upholstery business, or at home, where furniture can be revived to look like new.
