That was so sweet of your mother to come over and help you. I love the slipcovers. Your living room is gorgeous. Happy mother's day
They're really beautiful, it brightens up the room. I finally have a spot for my sewing machine, I have been cleaning for 4 days straight. big like for me!
Yeah! Feels great when it's all done :)
I've been wanting a slipcover for my sofa. You have given me the courage to make one myself. Thanks. Have a great weekend!
My toxic trait is thinking I can do this to my L shape sofa 😅 off to the shops now 😂
I just did some renos on my main floor and have ordered some fabric for a slipcover for a comfy chair whose upholstery is tattered. I'm going with the sheet version first time around. Thanks for a clear video instruction.
Those chairs turned out so fantastic! I love the fabric you choose. Beautifully done!💗
Christina the chairs look lovely...love your sofa as well. You make those slip covers look easy. I’m getting ready to chalk paint a couple of recliners and have some chairs for living room I’m wanting to recover so I’m going to use this tutorial as a reference once we get moved in a month...Thanks so much for sharing.🤗🥰
I love slipcovers so much. Great tutorial.
Hi Christina!! Love your slipcovers what a transformation to your living area. I'm not sure if I would tackle a project this large, however you make it look so easy. I could start with covering my dining chair seats first. Happy Mother's Day😘🌻🌷💐
I love these slipcovers soooooo much!!!!!! I want to brave up and try to make two white ones for my chairs!!!!!!! Beautiful! Wonderful job! ❤️😘😍
Love this look so much better!!! So beautiful!
Thank you...it’s giving me some courage to do the same! Love the end result. 💕
I so needed this video! You always make it look so easy lol. ;)
I made chair covers last year. I made mine out of paint drop cloths from Lowe’s. I used Velcro on the back middle and also added it on the cushions. I just rapped the cloth around the cushion and pinned everything on backwards and then you can take them off and wash them and put them right back on. I love my covers!! ❤️❤️ great video!
Thank you!
How crisp and clean they look. I have covered many things but haven't tried my hand at a chair. Thanks for the great tutorial. Love all of your amazing videos. Bye for now.
Great tutorial! ❣️
Wow thank you so much just what I needed
TIP....For washable slip covers, consider sewing rod pockets for 1/2 pvc pipe. Cut the pipe to length, slide pipe inside the pocket, wedge the rod pocket into the crevice between cushions. It will keep the fabric smooth and taut and help prevent the fabric from sliding around. Remove the pipe for laundry day. The same concept can be applied at the bottom hem of a fabric panel. Most upholstered furniture is constructed on a wooden frame. Screw small eye bolts to the inside of the frame. Plan ahead for your rod pocket so you can wrap fabric around the bottom edge of your furniture to the inside of the frame. Anchor either end of the pvc pipe by sliding it inside the eye bolts as you would do to hang a curtain rod. Use velcro or pins to hold any lose bits of cloth in place at odd corners. Consider making the slip cover in a few separate sections instead of one large piece. For example, it may be simpler to make separate covers for each arm, one for the back, and another for the seat and front skirt. I slipcovered an upholstered waterbed with this method, separate covers for each side rail, one for the headboard and another for the footboard. If making a cover in separate sections, you can overlap fabric to avoid unsightly gaps. 1/2 inch pvc pipe is flexible enough to make for easier handling but also rigid enough to hold fabric even and smooth.
Could you use pool noodles instead of PVC pipes? I was thinking of splitting thr pool noodles in half and then stuffing them in the creases of the chair.
Nice! Maybe you could make a video. Or take a few pics of your work and create a video of the pics and post it on UA-cam.
Beautiful job! God bless, Peggy
Love that you featured your talented mother! Happy Mother's Day!
We have a family friend who is a professional slipcover maker & her work is beautiful. I find the process fascinating, thanks for sharing!
Very easy to follow. Thank you!
O loooove this turorial! Wish me luck!!! The result is soooo beautiful
Fantastic job! I really hope you will make fuax roman shade tutorial soon !!💜
I love this video and may now have the courage to attempt this. Thank you for this tutorial.
You're welcome! I'd love to see how your cover turns out! Tag me on instagram or Facebook, @thediymommy - Happy Sewing!
Is there anything you can’t do Christina? ☺️these turned out beautiful and I love the simplicity of them. They brightened your room more. Thanks for sharing your wonderful creativities 😊
Thanks! ☺️
Thank you 🦋
Its so easy to follow 🥰🥰 thankyouuu for the great instruction ❤️
You're welcome!
Very good!
Thanks so much. I am just getting ready to do a slip cover for my Stockholm leather couch. I am using canvas drop cloth that I will wash and maybe bleach a bit for a lighter look. It's very cost effective and durable. There are many videos here on YT about using drop cloths.
Great idea!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I have a bright red Ikea armchair that is extremely old and I can't find slip covers for it anywhere online (might be my fault for not knowing the name). I think I will try to make one myself now!
Thanks again
Thanks for the tutorial 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😁👏
You're welcome! ☺️
I don't have anything to cover atm but it was fun to watch you make yours and I love the way they turned out! I love the simple white! : ) Great way to protect and switch up the style! : )
Thank you!
Thank you for your quality tutorial, I loved it. 5 years ago I bought myself a very cheap slipcover from ikea. It is to big for my chair so I have to adjust it. It's the first time I'm going to try to make it fit. I'm going to try to see it as an adventure. Please wish me luck 😀🤣
Good Luck! 💜
Hi Christina I don't know how I missed this video on how to make a slip cover this has come in very useful for me TFS! 😍 I'm covering a child's armchair...wish me luck! 😂😂👍
Good Luck! LOL
V. Helpful
Pretty ♡
I'm working on my home and learning how to redo my chairs and pillows. .. :-)
Would you mind sharing the fabric brand you used? It looks awesome!
I like your way thank you 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Any advice on how to measure the yardage? For example, how much did this one take?
Top.👍
Can you make a tutorial DIY slip cover for wooden armless dining chairs please💞 😌👋
They look so fresh and beautiful. I just don't know how to sew darn
Me either but I'm gonna give it a shot. My daughter bought me a sewing machine and I'm scared of it, lol. But I sooo need to make one for my cats favorite chair. It's so ugly but he loves it. It would be like getting rid of grandpas favorite recliner...or something, lol
How could I make it work for diy car seat covers
My cat has his own chair. It's so bad, the only place I'll put it is in my bedroom.I can't wait to try this to update his chair and find a material that matches my bedroom decor. TY VERY MUCH
You're welcome! 💜
Goog job
Your mom is gorgeous.
I have cut out the pieces for a slipcover for my sofa. I’m just hesitant to sew since been so long.
Can you make a slipcover for a recliner? I would love a tutorial on that!!
You may be able to use this technique with a recliner however I think you'd have to add in a bit of extra fabric in the crevices so it reclines properly :)
How many yards of fabric did you use?
I believe it was around 5 meters per chair.
I’m going through your videos... just wondering did you ever do a video with the paint colors that you used in your home?
You can find all our paint colours here: thediymommy.com/our-diy-house-modern-farmhouse-paint-colors/
They looks more bigger...
Not sure I have the courage to try this but I really appreciate your video just in case I do. I encourage you to eliminate the music from your videos; it’s very distracting and some of us have hearing problems, me being one!
