Why are our videos the best?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Aimee Swikit attended a Certified Trade Upholstery Program in the 1990s. Kwantlen Polytechnic University (Vancouver, B.C.) had one of the most well established and respected upholstery programs in Canada. Aimee has been a professional upholsterer for close to 30 years, has been teaching upholstery workshops since 2014, and has been a YouTube content creator since 2017. With an Art School background (ECIAD, Vancouver, B.C.) she has the design skills to make old furniture look amazing. She is truly passionate about upholstery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Online learning is today\u2019s easiest and least expensive option to gain the skills you need to become a professional furniture upholsterer. It makes sense to learn from professionals who present their skills in the format that best suits your<\/em> needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A New Generation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is a new generation of upholsterers. Those who are learning on the fly, gaining the skills they need to gain confidence – watching seasoned professionals teach in detailed tutorials. Although this website is grassroots in style, you will find the information here beneficial and relevant. Purchase only the videos you think will be relevant to you, no monthly fee is required!<\/strong> This is the best way I could think of to bring my skills directly to you. In keeping it simple, the proceeds go directly back into running this website and making more videos for you. I hope you enjoy them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n


I have been a certified furniture upholsterer since 1995. I\u2019ve worked in shops, and I\u2019ve worked out of spare rooms. I currently work from home, where the business takes an entire third of the space and me and my kids live around that. We live the Upholstery Life, and we\u2019re proud of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
