All you will need to do is take the old chair or sofa and remove the preexisting covers and replace the foam rubber cushions. This is easily, done by carefully removing the covering. Start by turning the chair or sofa over on its side then use a screwdriver and a pair of pliers to pull out the staples or tacks that hold the old covering on the wooden frame.

You are trying to remove the cover without tearing it so you can use it as a pattern for the new one you will put on. Once you have the old covering removed then you will measure the cover and write down all the pieces and their measurements. You will use a seam ripper and take these pieces apart. Then you will know what every thing goes to when you start putting them back together.

You can find a good heavy material at a local fabric store and find it in a new color or pattern that you wish the chairs and sofa to look like. When you find the right material then return home. Lay the old pieces you have for patterns on the new fabric and pin them to the new material. Cut the pieces out and then simply sew the pieces back together the way you took the old ones apart.

Now you are ready to recover the chairs and sofas to make them new again. Be sure to replace any worn out or flat cushions in the process. Put the new fabric back on the chairs and sofa just the way you removed them. Use either upholstery tacks or a heavy-duty staple gun to reattach the fabric pieces to the furniture.

Once you have finished the recovering job and you have saved your favorite chairs or you favorite sofa you will be proud that you have save a great deal of money.
