For awhile now I knew I wanted or needed a new ottoman storage and wanted to use it for the playroom area. We have a big ottoman storage we used in our family room but then it started to get old and got ripped in some places. I ended putting it in the garage trying to decide what can I do with it. After, looking for a new ottoman the prices were crazy and especially buying a new one for a playroom where the kids will destroy it. That is when my crazy brain started to kick in...LOL I decided to upholster it myself.
I figured why not just cover it myself? It can't be that hard! So, I went to JoAnn's Fabric and got what I liked. Came home and went straight to work.
First, I took off the hinges since its a storage one.
Next, I cut out the leather around since it was ripped already.
Now I laid down the fabric and got the ottoman (top side down) made sure fabric was straight.
The fun part begun when I stapled on the longer side a little lose. Then I did the same on the other side pulling it tightly. Once done, with that I cut all the excess fabric around. I made sure all fabric is secure and even.
Last, I attached it back to the ottoman base!
Ta Daaa! Simple and easy!!
Now its in the play/game room area and my kids love it since its comfortable to sit on then a regular coffee table!! Total cost me only for the fabric $15.41
Thank you for stopping by!
