Roots in Reupholstering
Skills furniture reupholstering began in Bellefonte with the very first people who attended Skills 50 years ago. Later the upholstering workshop moved to Huntingdon to increase its work space.
Reupholstering is one of the oldest forms of recycling. The adage “They do not make it like they used to” includes furniture.

Skills is able to continue this work today because of the quality of work put into each piece and the dedication of the staff and individuals who do the work. A team of three men do the work. Ed Campbell, upholstery instructor, brought his expertise to Skills about 10 years ago. Campbell is in charge of quality control, estimates, cutting the fabric, training individuals, and overseeing all projects. Client-workers Ed Stall and John Norris complete the Team. Stall removes the old coverings; Norris recovers all of the pieces.
