    Traditional upholstery was stuffed with a variety of things, most of which tended to settle under pressure and become uneven. Modern upholstery uses plastic or rubber foam and any replacement or repair is better done with this. There are molded rubber pads shaped to suit standard parts, but plastic foam is bought in large pieces which can be cut with a wet carving knife. Thickness varies from a few millimeters to 150 mm or more. A dining chair with a lift out seat may have a plywood base or be a frame with webbing strained across. Webbing is either formed in parallel strips one way only, or is interwoven at right angles. Tacks which hold the covering material can be lifted off with a screwdriver.

     

    Strip off the materials as well as any inner lining, then the padding. If the chair has a frame and the webbing is sagging, remove this but note how it is tacked. Buy new webbing and tack one end of each piece to the frame. At the other end use a strip of wood about 100mmm long as a lever to tension the webbing while putting in the first tracks there, then cut off and fold over the end of more tacks. If you are using a new piece of plastic foam as stuffing cut it slightly oversize so that it is compressed by the covering. Bevel the underside all round so that the cover is stretched, making the edge of the foam curve downwards. Try with a scrap piece of cloth to get this right.

    If a button comes away from the surface of upholstery, you should replace the piece of thread or twine which runs through to the back. The buttoning keeps the filing in place, as well as looking attractive. Put the button on a length of twine and pass this through the eye of a needle long enough to go through the upholstery. At the front, push it through at the point where it was sewn previously, but it will probably be stronger if you bring the needle through at slightly different place at the back. Thread on a flat button at the back and tie the twine under it with a slip knot. Adjust the tension with the slip know until the front appearance is correct, then lock the knot and push it into the thickness of the cushion.

    Laundry is not usually the most popular of household tasks. It can be made much more bearable by using any of a whole range of appliances and sophisticated detergents that are available and which make the task easier, and by investing in clothes, etc. made from the wide choice of easy care fabrics. However, in spite of all these aids, people often achieve poor results, which can be discouraging and expensive. There are several reasons for this. People are often confused by the wide range of detergents – why isn’t there just one for everything? In addition, every time you look, there seems to be a new fabric on the market, often needing special treatment, which can mean that it shouldn’t be washed in your normal load of laundry. And with so many washing machines, tumble driers and irons and sale, it is often difficult to decide which the best is for your purposes. Frequently the reason for poor results lies in not bothering to read instructions on detergent packs, care labels and manuals that come with washing machines or driers. The task then is to achieve satisfactory results with the weekly wash, and to attempt to reduce to minimum disasters such as baggy, faded acrylic sweaters and graying nylon underwear.

    How much powder to use

    Don’t ignore the quantity recommendations on packs. They are there as guide and not to encourage you to use more powder than in necessary. Everyone’s circumstances differ, and you need to adjust amounts accordingly. for soaking and hand washing use ½ cup of powder of 4.5 liters (1 gallon) water, 1 ½ cups per sink, ½ – ¾ cup per bucket.
