About Terry's Original & Design Custom Furniture Upholstery

Terry's Original and Design Custom Furniture Upholstery operates out of Midwest City, just east of Oklahoma City near Tinker Air Force Base, and carries a perfect 5.0 rating. The word 'custom' in the name is a meaningful one. It signals that this shop doesn't just replace fabric on a standard pattern. It builds or modifies upholstery to the customer's specific vision.

A perfect score, even from a single reviewer, reflects work done right.

Services

Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Terry's focuses on custom furniture upholstery, which typically means going beyond basic reupholstery to include design work tailored to the customer's specifications. This can involve creating one-of-a-kind cushion configurations, working with unusual furniture shapes, or building upholstered pieces from scratch using custom dimensions and materials. Standard reupholstery services for sofas, chairs, and ottomans are also part of the offering. Customers looking for something specific, whether a bespoke headboard, a uniquely shaped bench, or a chair modified for comfort, will find this kind of custom-focused approach more aligned with their needs than a standard production shop.

Service Area

Terry's Original and Design Custom Furniture Upholstery serves Midwest City and the eastern Oklahoma City metro. Customers from Del City, Choctaw, and the surrounding communities are within easy reach, and the shop's custom focus draws clients from across the broader OKC area who can't find this level of specialized work closer to home. Tinker AFB families looking to personalize their living spaces make up a natural part of the local customer base.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 'custom upholstery' mean compared to standard reupholstery?
Standard reupholstery replaces worn fabric and padding on an existing piece following its original design. Custom upholstery goes further by modifying the structure, changing dimensions, adding new features, or building a piece from scratch based on your specifications. It's the difference between refreshing what you have and creating exactly what you want.
Can a custom upholstery shop build a piece from scratch?
Yes, shops that specialize in original and custom design work can often build upholstered pieces from the frame up. This is a great option if you have a specific size requirement, an unusual space, or a design idea you can't find in stores. Expect this type of work to take longer and cost more than standard reupholstery, but the result is truly one of a kind.
How do I communicate my design vision to a custom upholsterer?
Photos, sketches, and fabric swatches are all helpful tools. The more specific you can be about what you like and dislike, the easier it is for the upholsterer to deliver what you have in mind. A good custom shop will ask plenty of questions before starting and may show you samples or mock-ups along the way.
Is Midwest City far from Oklahoma City for furniture drop-off?
Midwest City sits directly east of Oklahoma City and is easily accessible from most parts of the metro, typically a 15 to 30 minute drive depending on where you're coming from. The proximity to Tinker Air Force Base means the area is well-connected to major roads. For a custom shop worth the trip, most customers find the commute manageable.
How long does a custom upholstery project take?
Custom work takes longer than standard reupholstery because it involves more planning, fitting, and craftsmanship at each stage. A moderately complex project might take three to six weeks, while a fully custom-built piece could take longer. Getting a clear timeline estimate upfront helps set expectations and plan around the wait.
Can I get a headboard custom upholstered to fit my bed frame?
Absolutely. Custom-upholstered headboards are one of the most popular projects for shops like Terry's because standard retail options often don't fit unusual bed frame sizes or match a room's specific decor. You'd provide the dimensions and choose your fabric, and the shop handles the construction. It's often cheaper than buying a high-end retail headboard and far more personalized.
