Customize Your Upholstered Piece

Do you already own a piece of furniture you are interested in having upholstered a cowboy or western style? Are you looking to have a new piece of furniture completely customized?

Email sierra@therustedroan.com with a photo of your piece and what you would like to have done to it as well as your location.

The Process

1. Initial inquiries on custom pieces of furniture are sent by emailing sierra@therustedroan.com with the style of frame you would like (or already own) and the design style you’re interested in.
2. Once you submit photos of your piece and a general idea of what you would like to have done to it, an estimate is generated. Generally, this is reasonably accurate reflection of the final invoice, but many factors can influence the final price including but not limited to frame restoration requirements, changing the design during the upholstery process, or unforeseen extra work that comes to light after the job has started (interior frame repairs,etc). The biggest variables will be transport and fabric costs and which are itemized after the design is finalized. Potential frame repair and rebuild (or new frame assembly and finishing) costs are included in your estimate but cannot be finalized until your piece is inspected in the studio.
3. After your estimate is accepted and your deposit is received (50% of labor), your piece is scheduled on the waitlist and we work on finalizing the design and scheduling delivery/pickup/shipping of your piece to get it in the studio.
4. Once your design is finalized, cost of fabric is due and your job will begin as scheduled.
5. Upon teardown of your piece, any frame repairs/foundation rebuilding is noted and costs are communicated then the rebuilding process continues.
6. As long as the fabric you selected is available, and not backordered, most pieces have a 4 week turnaround time. This does not include shipping times or the time your piece is on the waitlist.
7. Once your piece is completed, the remaining costs are due and shipping is scheduled (independently and is not included on the work order).

Fabric

With a list of fabric suppliers, customers have many options to choose from for a wide range of well-wearing upholstery fabrics that score well on double rub tests (how most fabric durability is graded). Other fabric options are available and readily used (such as leather and hair on hide). Custom printed fabrics and images are available for select pieces and designs. Customer supplied fabrics are generally not accepted due to suitability, fire code, and quality concerns, but may be accepted on an individual bases. A 25% cutting charge is applied to customer supplied fabrics. Any image may be used on your piece as long as it is your own personal print/photo or is not a protected under copyright. Pattern-matched pieces require more fabric to line up the pattern depending on the size of the repeat, and up to 25% more.
