1. research local upholsterers and find one with good reviews
3. become outraged about reupholstering prices while grudgingly acknowledging that, yeah, I guess upholsterers have to make a living
4. search for, and watch, videos on YouTube about doing your own reupholstering
6. discover the need for a specialized piece of equipment
7. try, fail to find the piece of equipment on eBay for cheap
9. briefly consider going into reupholstering as a side-gig (bearing in mind that at this point I have yet to reupholster anything)
11. research where to discard the old chairs (The city dump? The recycling depot? Some charity that restores used furniture?)
12. take the old chairs there, all the while feeling really guilty about being "wasteful."
