After 2 years of marriage, we decided maybe we needed a couch. So we found one..paid $20 for it and said, oh yeah we can re-upholster that. For 20 in upholstery fabric we have a new couch for only $40!
Now if any of you have covered a a chair or made curtains it's not really that intense...but re-doing an entire couch--now that is a chore.
Here is the before...
some of the in-between...
and the after...
a little elbow grease, and lot of sewing it turned out pretty good. (If I do say so myself) however, next time we will save a bit longer and buy a new one :)
