[A/S] Re: uphostery up grades
There is nothing particularly difficult about uphostery in an
Airstream. Any good upholstery shop should be able to handle it.
The drapes are not that tricky either, but the experienced people
mentioned in other replies are likely your best bet - anyone else is
going to spend a lot of time measuring and working out the pleats and
tabs and so forth.
The difficulties involved in counter tops should not be
underestimated. They may curve in either the vertical or horizontal
plane, or both. Getting a good fit can be a real pain. Believe me,
I should know! I did get a Lowe's pre-fab counter to work in my
kitchen, but I had to move the entire cabinet back against the wall
about 2" to get it under the new countertop. This involves a certain
amount of cutting and fitting. A cabinet maker can do this for you,
but it may cost considerable.
