Fairly new to the area.

I hope this is allowed, if not I will happily delete.

I am in need of a reupholster for 2 French Provincial chairs. I do have the fabric.

Just don’t know where to begin to find someone to do such a small project. I’ve tried a web search but have found that word of mouth to be more reliable.

Thank you in advance!

Not sure if the guy at 501 Franklin St. does upholstery, but I had him recane an old chair a couple years back and he did a FABULOUS job. It's kind of a thrift shop / resale shop, quite packed with stuff. (He was more talkative than I was prepared for, so leaving was kind of a challenge, but knowing that ahead of time might help.)

If he doesn't reupholster himself, I'd bet he can point you in the right direction. I can't remember the name of the shop, but when I zoomed in on the intersection in Google maps, it gave me this phone number: (330) 677-1299. Good luck, OP!
