lively.

• Buy Throw Pillows
•  
• Buying some new throw pillows is surely one of
  the most inexpensive and easiest options to
  redesign your old sofa. Throw pillows can simply
  change the whole ambiance in some amazing ways.
  You get a wide range of size, shape, material and
  patterns to choose from. Go for something bright
  and bold, if you neutral or dark currently.
•  
• Choose something geometric, if you currently have
  a floral pattern. Also, opt for something soft,
  if the current material is rough or edgy. Theres
  no limit to what you can do with throw pillows.

• Fill Saggy Cushions
•  
• By stuffing the cushions, you can make your sofa
  look a lot better, if it has started looking
  saggy. Dont just fill lots of cotton batting in
  the sofa as it will give you a lumpy cushion. In
  fact, you should first remove the cover and
  enfold the cushion in one or two layers of cotton
  batting (or any other similar material). You can
  use a good quality adhesive, if it shifts around
  a bit. If there are still find some sappy spots
  fill them with extra cotton batting.

• Attach Nailhead Trim
•  
• A successful way to make your sofa look more
  happening is to add some nailhead trim. First,
  figure out where the nailhead trim will look
  attractive. Secondly, mark the area properly and
  nail in the tacks. To get a solid foundation for
  nailing the trim, ensure that you choose a solid
  portion of the frame.

• Change The Legs Of Your Sofa
•  
• By switching out the legs of your sofa, you can
  do wonders with its look. A more subtle, but
  effective look can be easily provided to the sofa
  by changing or installing new legs on the sofa. A
  single frame construction is usually not an ideal
  choice for sofas these days, majority parts of
  these furnishing items are made separately and
  assembled later, especially the legs.
•  
• Dont want to change the legs? Then simply use
  spray paint to add new colour and texture to the
  legs. Youll be amazed to see the difference it
  brings to the whole look of your sofa.

7

• Cover Your Sofa
•  
• Use some comfortable and stylish covering for
  your sofa to provide it a fresh new look.
  Slipcovers arent expensive and are available in
  a wide range of colours and fabrics. If you want
  the perfect fit, you can get custom-made
  slipcovers for your sofa.

• Change The Surroundings
•  
• This trick has not much to do with changes made
  for the sofa instead you can change the
  background or area around your sofa set to make
  it look more beautiful and lively than before.
•  
• For better results, you must hire professional
  upholstery cleaners in Sydney who can deliver
  desirable results and make your upholstery look
  like brand new.
