Upholstering Antique Furniture,
By
This review is from: A Step-by-Step Guide to Restoring & Repairing Furniture (Hardcover)
This is a nice book! They tell you just how to reupholster antiques the old way. I took down a star only because modern techniques are definitely the easy way to go. A staple gun works well and no one will ever see it, but they tell you to use nails. This book is about how to upholster antiques the old way. It's a good book and would give it a recommend.
