HTM Sofa & Chairs *Requested*

Today we are going to make upholstered loveseat/sofa and chairs for your mini living room. This was requested by Once Upon A Doll Collection.

Supplies
  • card board, shipping boxes
  • sponges
  • fabric
  • scissors
  • hot glue
Instructions:
Cut your card board to the size you want your furniture. 

1. Using hot glue upholster the two side pieces (arm rests) and the back rest in fabric, wrapping like a gift. 
2. Hot glue a sponge to the top of the "seat", then upholster using the same method. 
3. Hot glue the seat to one of the arm rests 2/3 of the way down. Then hot glue the other side. The bottom 1/3 will create "feet".


4. Hot glue back rest to both arm rests and the seat. You will have to work quickly so your glue doesn't dry too fast. 
5. Secure a small piece of uncovered cardboard across the seat bottom under neath for added stability. Voila!

Repeat the same steps for a side chair or use the parson style tutorial then add arm rests.
