I have a mid century modern chair, my mother purchased when they were closing the old Hilton Hotel on Washington Blvd. In Detroit, MI. She has since passed away and the chair needed a lot of loving. I saw the ad about Unique Short Tree and that they had upholstery classes. I signed up. Tammy, Steve and Dylan are phenomenal. They instantly recognized the year and model of the chair. We stripped it down to the bare wood and the frame was in excellent condition. They helped me select the fabric, which they had and we put our heads together regarding the piping, which Dylan suggested, and it is perfect. This family knows what the are doing, and they were so kind and patient. The results: ugly duckling to a beautiful swan.

I felt she knew exactly what I wanted.
The finished product is everything I hoped for! The workmanship is awesome - piping is straight, tucks are perfect and consistently sized, and even the nap is one way directional. Tammy said my seat cushion stuffing did not need replacing, and her honesty saved me money on the project.
All in all I am sooooo happy with my new green velvet sofa!!! I definitely recommend Unique Short Tree Design for your...
Read moreI made an appointment on line to drop our patio furniture off to have new slings inserted. We inadvertently went to the back entrance first. Before you drop any furniture off here you should see where they perform the service. It is full of rotted styrofoam, broken furniture pieces and is so crammed with junk it would make a hoarder appear to be a minimalist. The front office is no better, stacks of fabric and junk are everywhere. The individual informed me I did not have an appointment despite an email that said I did. This was actually a bonus as I would not want anything refinished in that unsanitary mess. How this place has positive reviews is likely due to people who have never been there writing reviews. Beware of this place it is...
