HOW WE GOT OUR START

In 1947, Ljubomir Bodjanac received his Master Qualification Certificate as an “Expert Specialist in the Trade for Upholstering” in Yugoslavia. Envisioning a better quality of life for his family, Ljubomir moved his family to the United States in 1961. Ljubomir worked for the Richard Lea Winter furniture store in Los Angeles as the area’s only upholsterer. His values of hard work, attention to detail, excellent customer service, and commitment led to opportunities to work with interior designers on major projects and developments throughout the Beverly Hills and Los Angeles areas.

THE NEXT GENERATIONS

Ljubomir opened Star Upholstery in 1971 and grew his business as a recognized custom upholsterer. He trained his son Samuel to learn the upholstery trade when Sam was just 10 years old. Sam soon decided he would follow in his father’s footsteps and become a master upholsterer. He married and settled in northern New Jersey, where he worked exclusively with prestigious interior designers in Manhattan. Eventually, in 1989 he opened Creative Custom Upholstery in Oakland, NJ which was in operation untill March 2022.

Today at Fabric Showcase in Cleveland, OH, you will find Sam, his wife Stela, and their son Andrew working side by side. Like his father, Andrew began learning the business at a young age. After attending college, he continued in the trade and made the decision to join the family business; he is now responsible for Fabric Showcase's day-to-day operations.
