Core Replacement?

Is the fabric on the seat cushions of you furniture loose or wrinkling? Are your seat cushions rounded off at the edges, flat, gapped, or uncomfortable? In most cases its not the fabric but the seat core. Seat cores are an oil base foam that do eventually go bad, some quicker then others. Good news is that the seat cores can be replaced! An upholstery shop will have the right cores you need and will usually cut them for you, and add the dacron layer at an extra charge. Just open the zipper, remove by gently bending the core almost in half inside the cover, and install same way. Be careful not to rip the fabric, or fold too much and rip the core, or break the zipper! An electric turkey cutting knife works great for cutting foam cores, and can be found cheap at most thrift stores. If your seat core is attached, give us a call!

Backs & Pillows Fluff Up!

Some inside back sag pillows, throw pillows, and arm pillows can be rejuvenated by fluffing them up like you would a regular sleeping pillow. Pillow Stuffing compresses down after a while and fluffing it up really helps a lot. Hold the center of the pillow in front of you between your two hands, pushing your hands together, compressing the center of the pillow between your hands, then pinching from both sides, grab the stuffing inside through the fabric, and stretch (fluff) the stuffing by pulling it apart with your hands, and repeating. Stretch and fluff up the pillow this way until it looks new.

On some models, look on all sides of the inside back sag pillows, pillows, or arm pillows and see if you can find a zipper. It’s usually located at the bottom, back or underneath. You can purchase stuffing at any local fabric or upholstery shop. Open this zipper and add more stuffing to the comfort level you want. If your product does not have a zipper, give us a call!
