Is your favorite chair in need of reupholstering? Try the

Is your favorite chair in need of reupholstering? Try the upholstery fabric outlet store!

Your favorite reading chair has seen better days, but it's still your chair of choice when you want to snuggle up and have a good read. You inherited this beloved chair from your grandmother and, despite a few lumps and worn spots on the upholstery, you'll never give it up. However, you don't want it to deteriorate to the point of no return. At the same time, you may know nothing about upholstering furniture. You do know it can get to be an expensive proposition. You make a visit to the upholstery shop, only to find not only is the fabric quite expensive, but you don't find anything that suits your taste. So you go home, settle into your chair and forget about the reupholstery job for another couple of weeks.

Sooner or later, you realize the time for action is now. You can't ignore that small tear that suddenly appears, with little bits of stuffing peeking through the cover of the chair. OK, it's time to get serious!

A friend takes pity on you and asks if you've ever heard of the upholstery fabric outlet stores. Uhh, no .... Now you have and your solution is in your sights!

Upholstery fabric outlet stores carry discontinued upholstery fabrics, as well as remnants of small amounts left over from whole bolts of upholstery fabrics, including the newest designer fabrics. What a find! Some of these remnants are truly outstanding, both in quality and design. Let's say Mrs. Wealthy Big Bucks has redone her entire living room in a designer upholstery fabric. When her fancy decorator was done, there were just a few yards of this lovely upholstery fabric left over. Enough to do your beloved grandmother's chair. Where did this fabric go? To the upholstery fabric outlet store, of course!

The moral to this story is that when you want to reupholster a special piece of furniture, but can't afford an arm and a leg to get the job done, check out the upholstery fabric outlet shops. Decorators frequent these stores, looking for that few yards of fabric that will make their client's dreams come true.

Go check out the excellent finds to be had at the outlets designers shop. Take your measurements and snatch up that perfect fabric. Call up your local upholstery shop and explain your situation. Be sweet. The upholsterer may tack on a few bucks to the actual recovering work, to make up for the loss of profit on the upholstery fabric, but hey, it's still a bargain. You and Grandma are happy. Your favorite chair may become your kid's favorite and treasured chair, full of memories, without a price tag.
