If you are a homeowner you know that the to-do list for things around the house is never ending. This project has actually been on the list for over a year now. It took me awhile to decide on the fabric and I finally went with a faux cow hide. The cow hide acts as a neutral fabric in my style, so I have the flexibility to move these into another room if needed (or I just get bored with them in the family room). This week’s video will show you the steps on how to recover an ottoman and add a nailhead trim.
Tips:
- When looking for fabric make sure it is wide enough to cover both sides of the item you are upholstering.
- Make sure you are pulling the fabric really tight to create smooth lines. The whole process is like wrapping a present.
