3. Then you will upholster the canvas. Just pretend like you are wrapping a present, remember to pull tight so the fabric won't pucker. Staple on the opposite side to secure.


4. After getting the whole canvas upholstered you want to measure out where you want to place your buttons, making sure they are of equal distance. Take into consideration how many buttons you have as well and what will look pleasing to you.


5. Once you have you measurements to your liking now you want to secure them through the fabric, batting, and the canvas. Do this by simply sewing them on with a needle and thread. Knot them once you have sewn the buttons on, I also put a dab of hot glue on to secure even more. Remember to pull tight so the button sinks in creating that tufted look.


6. You're all done! ENJOY!!




So what do you guys think??? Super easy and looks great! Wouldn't this look totally awesome if you did several of them to create a headboard? It seems a lot easier than using wood and having to drill through that to secure the buttons...well to me anyways I have never upholstered something that way ;).
If you guys have any questions about this project or just for fun please let me know I am always happy to help! Thanks for stopping by! Have fun! Love, love.
