Breathing New Life Into a Tired Pottery Barn Sofa and Loveseat
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Hey Guys!
I hope you all enjoy this week's video :) I'm really sorry I didn't upload last Saturday. I had some personal health issues I was dealing with. But I am back now! This project was a really big undertaking for me. I've never used feathers in a project, and I've also never worked on a couch or messed with foam of this magnitude. I just say this not to toot my own horn, but to encourage you guys to take on challenges that seem daunting! You can do anything that you set your mind to. As I said in the video, let me know if you would like to see a video on how I tailor the IKEA slipcovers to the pottery barn sofa. (An amazing saving money hack, am I right??) I think I might attempt to do that soon o.o. Honestly I'm a bit nervous to tackle it myself because I've never done slipcovers before. But it's gotta be easier than doing the slipcover 100% from scratch right? At least I hope so ;)
I hope you all have amazing weeks and I'll see you next Saturday for another DIY video!
Laters!
Breaha

My husband is an upholsterer...!!! And I make all his cushions.. great little tutorial... people are surprised at the labor cost....you demonstrated WHY ! PERFECTLY!! It's a lot of work and we start from scratch...w fabric - feathers. thanks
The feather apocalypse was hilarious!!! You must be one smart cookie to accomplice such a project!!!
Haha, omg you’re my kind of girl! The music was perfect. I actually had a feather apocalypse of my own. I already had some down sleeping bags that I made over into (awesome) sofa pillows. Somewhere in the midst of the snow drifts of feathers my husband called and wanted to bring his boss over! I just laughed and told them to come at their own risk. They opted to go elsewhere
You did wonderfully. You are a prize and your husband is Blessed to have you for your values and industry and contribution to the family.
WOW, you’re a bloody genius! I’m binge watching your videos after finding your channel tonight. I’m learning SO MUCH from you! Thank You so much for sharing. You’re a FANTASTIC “teacher.” Love to you from England. xx

Great find and job on redoing cushions. Happy to hear hubby still loves ya...Like there was a doubt.. Lol..
Bravo! You must feel great every time you see your sofa. That was a lot of hard work and you should be proud of yourself! Literally, feathering the nest. Btw, it's "taut", no "gh" needed.
Feather-ageddon!!! Brave work. Worth it!

I had an almost feather apocalypse when I dissesembled feather snow pants and vests to turn them into bucket insulators for horse water buckets ( I quickly realized I would have to sew both ends before cutting to prevent feathers spilling everywhere) you were very meticulous and did a great job on your now beautiful couches GOOD JOB!!!

Woow wonderful job!! So complicated!!
You cute girl! I am an old grandma lady who has lived a lifetime of DIY projects. This is the BEST, BEST, BEST DIY video I have ever watched! Your feather apocalypse had me absolutely crying with both joy and pain and laughter. You have definitely graduated to "master class". Thanks for the great tips and simply for the inspiration to keep going. Beautiful projects, and your home will be full of love and great memories. Love, your new subbie.

Wow!! Great job!!!
You did an amazing job! I'm so happy you used those feathers and didn't toss them. I can't imagine how many birds it takes to stuff a couch but, I'm sure it was a lot. :( I'm glad their feathers didn't go to waste.
Love your videos, you make me giggle!!!!
Fantastic job, well done. 👍💖

😂I like how you said putting the foam back in the sewn down cushion was a "full body experience" lol!
Great job! They turned out amazing and look so luxe. Wow, what an ambitious project...that’s dedication there! And I totally knew you’d feature the “feather apocalypse” at some point! 😂😁 Tyfs!
Great work!!!
OMG... you're brilliant!.. "feather apocalypse". Hysterical!!! I expect to see you on HGTV before long honey and do it soon because I'm old and the DIY lacquer of a huge ass mirror might be the end of me!!! 😱
Good job! And glad your husband still loves you!
Looks awesome!! Great job!!
Great work!
Yes-please do a video on tailoring the slipcovers-I have been wanting to do this and it’s so overwhelming! Your project came out amazing!
