A Little Bit About the Business....
BLUE SKY: Mike's Custom Upholstery is owned and operated by Mike W. Moore. Mike brings over 25 years of upholstery experience to his sewing table.
Born and raised in the "Great White North" of Hearst, Ontario, Mike was the youngest son of John "Pony" Moore, who was an accomplished upholsterer. Pony had contracts with companies such as Eaton's and also was a skilled leather-worker. As a youngster, Mike watched and learned the tricks of the trade from his father. Mike's family relocated to Niagara in the late 70's. After graduating from Grantham High School, Mike's artistic skills led him to attend Sheridan College for Animation but eventually his love of sewing and creating drew him back to upholstery.
In 1990 Mike opened his own upholstery shop and did predominately furniture and other home furnishings. Over the years he gained additional experience working for Peterson's in St. Catharines, and then Streamline Upholstery in Niagara Falls.
Then in 2012, Mike had the opportunity to re-open his own business in Welland and added the named "Blue Sky". In addition, he expanded his expertise beyond furniture and now also specializes in marine, RV, commercial and auto upholstery.
