Yes. An upholstery supply store, locally. They carry leather. Tandy leather is where I purchased leather, it's online as well as local here. My husband rescued a BIG leather ottoman from a dumpster, he took the leather off...someday I may cover a chair seat with it.....just another idea.

Try eBay, and plug in the names Edelman and Spinneybeck. If you don't need too much you can get some high quality remnants at good prices.

The issue with going retail with some of the higher quality leathers is that you have to buy by the hide or half hide.

I echo Pal for trying eBay. I got mine there to re-do the seat of this chair and was very impressed with the quality of this navy piece. Seller was 'leatherhut' and it arrived 2 days after I bought it.

These are some of the most advance method for rug and carpet cleaning.
1) Absorbent Compound Method :
This method is also known as the "dry cleaning" method which is used almost no water. After a thorough vacuuming, it is distribute a dry absorbent compound (the contains small amounts of water, detergents and solvents) and then cleaner draws and absorbs the soil of the carpet.

2) Bonnet Cleaning Method:
In this method after application of a suction cleaning solution on the carpet and engine hood, then we remove the solution by means of a bonnet or absorbent pad which is connected to slow speed (175 rpm) rotary floor machine.

3) Hot Water Extraction Method:
In this process we have to apply a cleaning solution onto the carpet by a pump-up sprayer and give residence. After that we have to remove the solution by rinsing with hot water, with a portable or truck-mounted extraction unit. Mist on a neutralizer after the extraction then wash the floor and cleaning agents and the drying time for this method is 1 to 3 hours.
