Welcome to CHAIR SCHOOL. We've also included TOOL SCHOOL here. I've been making, mixing, fixing, and creating home furnishings since I was five. When the internet took over, I was already eyeball deep in How To content to share.
My mom taught me to sew when I was 8. My dad was a custom home builder, took me to job sites and let me tag along to Handy Hardware. My grandfather owned a lumber yard. It's in my DNA. I'm an author, teacher, videographer, builder, self-examiner, etc. I've been an upholsterer for over 30 years, and taught it for 15. I've written for many large websites as a DIY contributor and expert and wrote a DIY newspaper column for five years. I published my first book on upholstery in 2018.
The real reason I love to MAKE, FLIP, and TEACH is the beneficial effects it has on our creative, emotional, and physical well being. Humans are made to create. It's gotten me through rough patches, and it's just fun. Find me at www.thehomeroomshop.com
