I’m so excited to share a new video with our readers today! We had to cover buttons with fabric for our Upholster a Bench Cushion and Tufting project and thought that our readers (and the world) would love to see how its done. This is a very simple process to do and makes a world of a difference when upholstering a piece of furniture. Watch the video to learn how to cover your own buttons for your next upholstery project!
Supplies for this project:
⅞ inch 2 Half Ball Cover Buttons
Fabric of choice
Scissors & Invisible Ink Pen
Apply what you learned to these two project:

(Part 2) How to Upholster a Bench Cushion + Tufting

I bought button covering kits at JoAnn’s, but my upholstery fabric is too thick to work on the buttons. Any suggestions for another method?
Mrs. Woodsy aka Katie says
Hi Katheleen, Maybe try using a rubber mallet and lightly hit the button closure with it?!?! That’s the only idea I have for you. Good luck!
