Fabric Ripping and Staple Gunning

Last night I started the process of reupholstering the loveseat posted a few entries ago, and it's so fun!  It's so satisfying to rip the trim off and pluck out the staples with pliers.  Also, I am now obsessed with my staple gun.. (I used it on some of the batting just to try it out).  It's great.

This is the fabric I ordered to recover the loveseat:



The color is called amethyst, and it's a microsuede. I got it at Fabric Guru.  I am also planning to use metal studs instead of trim, if it looks feasible - which means I'll have to buy a glue gun too!  So many upholstery weapons...
