Had chairs and sofa reupholstered years ago. Time to go back for a refresh! Excellent workmanship, service and communication.

We bought a pair of heart shaped slipper chairs in very poor condition and had them recushioned + reupholstered with fabrics our twin daughters picked out. Acanthus' talented staff did a wonderful job creating the perfect chairs for our tweens' dream room. read more

When we decided to recover two club chairs and an ottoman that had seen better days, picking out new fabric was the fun part. "It shouldn't cost too much to recover them", I thought.... Suddenly I wasn't having fun anymore. Until I found Anne on Yelp with all of the stellar reviews. I called her, she ANSWERED the phone and was prompt, professional and enthusiastic about my project. Her prices were SO good and her estimate SO reasonable I was a bit skeptical. Throughout the entire process she communicated the progress and estimate when she could do the work. She hit every target and we received our chairs and ottoman right before Thanksgiving (and I told her that would be nice but I'd understand if she couldn't meet the date). As in any transaction there are 3 parts to the work: 1) the initial contact and sense of confidence a customer gets from the business 2) the process of getting the project done 3) the end result. Somehow her stock just kept rising in my eyes. Even my husband was impressed and glad we had the work done. And the price is reasonable and well worth the workmanship. LOOK NO FARTHER than Acanthus for all of your upholstery needs. As corny as that sounds I'm of the age that I know somebody's grandma said that "look no farther" thing about something because it was plain and simple wisdom. I'm not an easy reviewer so if you're looking for some confirmation that you should go with Acanthus I hope this helps read more

Our cat had destroyed our pair of white sofas (who gets white sofas????). Well, ok, our cat, as well as a couple wine drinkers and a black sharpie! They desperately needed a facelift, and we were on a very short turnaround as guests were coming into town. Anne at Acanthus was awesome to work with from start to finish, super friendly and professional. She helped us select a good fabric, suggested ways we might be able to save on cost and shipping time, and accommodated my totally unreasonable deadline in stride. Ultimately they were able to turn the project around in a shockingly short time, and the couches looked incredible! They also use 'eco' fabrics and fillings. I've recently become paranoid about the horrible toxic fire-retardant chemicals they add to beds and furniture, and was excited to work with a company that uses natural fire retardant materials and high quality fabrics. I honestly can't recommend these people enough! read more

I could not be happier with the work done by Acanthus. Anne was extremely helpful creating perfectly fitting slipcovers making a pattern from the covers being replaced. Where I live (Hawaii) there is no one making slipcovers, I thought I'd bring the covers as patterns with me to Portland. I called three companies, no & no. They had to have the chairs to do the job. Then I called Acanthus. Sure, no problem Anne says. She made it so easy! I selected cotton twill fabric, for an additional fee she had it pre-washed for me, which I appreciated. Anne arranged to ship the finished covers to me. Everything was perfect, start to finish. Thank you Anne! read more

We had a good feeling about Acanthus when we first walked in, and weeks later, left with an even better feeling AND a matching pair of skillfully reupholstered leather loveseats. Anne offered us a couple of options at the outset, and completed the work promptly after ordering the material we selected. Additionally, desiring to protect our reupholstered loveseats after the fact, with Anne''s further help we agreed upon a design for a pair of easy-on,easy-off fabric seat covers. With her urging we looked beyond Acanthus' ample selection of fabrics and located a perfect pattern from which the seat covers were made. The staff was friendly and helpful at every turn. read more

We have a Victorian-style chaise lounge that had seen better days. Anne helped us select a fabric that would suit the style, and Acanthus beautifully recovered the sofa for us. We're so happy with the way it turned out, and we'd happily recommend them to anyone in need of a reupholstery shop! read more

I was looking to have a new slipcover made for our sectional and these people were so incredible! Well, I guess I really only worked with April but man, she was awesome! Great communicator by email and phone. Always kept me in the loop of what was going on. She so kindly helped me narrow down a wonderful fabric within my budget and design constraints. I believe from the time she ordered the fabric to when my project was complete was MAYBE 3 weeks. I was really impressed with their efficiency. Also what blew me away is that they didn't even have my couch to work with...I just brought in the old slipcover and they made one using that as a guide. Mind blowing. Now, I know nothing about sewing or patterns or anything of that sort so perhaps this isn't as incredible as it feels in my head. But it felt was like I brought over a sample of my grandma's tomato soup to a chef and then they recreated it pretty much perfectly if not better. Seriously, this new slipcover is better than the old one. Fits even better! I was really impressed with their work. They also made a window seat cushion for us that's just perfect. I will recommend them to anyone and everyone! read more

Love Acanthus! I just had them rebuild cushions for my couch. Affordable, friendly, and professional. I look forward to having something re-upholstered with them in the future. read more

I found Acanthus on Yelp when I was looking for someone to make a slipcover for my couch. I had recently purchased a new couch and although I loved the fabric, my old man cat has a bad habit of pulling his portly body onto furniture with his front claws. Fortunately I had purchased extra fabric at the time of purchase but I was looking for someone to make covers for the bottom cushions and armrests so it would be protected but still look nice. Just because you have pets doesn't mean you should suffer with ugly covers! Acanthus did an incredible job - when I put the covers on my fiance didn't even realize because they looked so good. Plus when I went to their shop to pick up my items they had a bunch of really cool looking pieces they were working on for other clients. I'd definitely highly recommend them! read more

I recently took an old chair to be re-upholstered to Acanthus and they did a great job - the chair has been completely transformed! They are reasonably priced for the high quality of their craftsmanship. Anne is very easy to work with and full of helpful suggestions. In fact it was such a fun experience I soon took a large cube-shaped cushion in to have it recovered, too! They will soon be moving to Mississippi Ave into a larger space so it will be interesting to see how they expand their business. I highly recommend this shop! read more

I have had a number of items re upholstered over the years and hands down this was the highest quality work, I am so impressed. Anne happened to have some material in stock of exactly what I had in mind. She needed to improvise a bit as we were a bit short on the amount of fabric for the job and it turned out incredible! Beautiful, beautiful work! read more

I called today to ask about having four dining chair covers done. The employee said they were eight weeks out. I was ok with that and asked if I could bring them by. He said I needed an appointment. I asked to make an appointment and he answered, 'Well, you know....'" If this is how they start a service, I have no confidence in them. read more

I needed 4 dining chairs recovered. I discovered Acanthus by accident and was so glad I did. Anne was very professional and patient as we searched for the right fabric. She shared insights as to furniture design and fabric patterns that would work well with my chairs. She was clear on cost and length of time it would take. Reasonable pricing and quality workmanship. .Her team members were pleasant and helpful. Very pleased overall. The chairs turned out beautifully. I would recommend Acanthus wholeheartedly! read more

Acanthus does stellar work. Our fancy Ligne Roset recliner was tattered. Yet for years we postponed refurbishing it, fearing that an unskilled upholsterer would ruin its beautiful line. When I kept seeing the impressive window displays at "Acanthus," I contacted Anne Thompson, the shop's proprietor. Anne was a dream to work with. She came for a consultation to our house, promptly prepared a selection of suitable fabric samples for us to consider, and she and her team performed an astounding face-lift on the armchair in only a few days. I cannot speak highly enough of the care taken by the Acanthus team to leave us satisfied. read more

I've never had anything reupholstered before, so I didn't quite know where to start. I asked around and Acanthus came up several times. I'm so glad I listened. I just got my chair back today and it's flawless. Without flaw! Anne was so great and just as excited for my project as I was. I will be back! read more

Took in a beat up little accent chair that I bought off craigslist to get reupholstered, and oh. my. gosh - they did SUCH a great job! They were even able to polish up the the wood legs, which were pretty dinged up and showing their years, to look practically brand new! Besides the excellent craftsmanship, this store has some really beautiful upholstery fabrics to choose from. My chair was finished ahead of schedule, for a very competitive price, and looks fabulous. Highly recommend! read more

Anne is simply a genius at upholstery. She has done several project for me over the last 10 years, including a sofa and a set of mid-century modern dining chairs in fabulous butter-colored pleather. But the latest project is the greatest. My cat was attacking my new MCM sofa, but I didn't want to cover it with ugly tablecloths or those cheap-o slipcovers. Instead, Anne made a great throw-on slipcover (she called it a slip-tarp!) that fits nicely but is easy to put on and take off, and I can stand to look at it day-in day-out. She is not the low-price leader, so if you're looking for cheap, don't call her. But if you want beautiful, thoughtful work, she's the gal. read more

I highly recommend this shop. I had a cushion remade for a new chair. It was sewn beautifully and exactly matched the design on the chair. Everyone was very courteous and professional. I will use this shop in the future. read more
