help!!! can any one tell me how to re upholster my cushions in the caravan. I would like to do it myself which will be alot cheaper than sending them to a company.

Thanks Sian

Hi my duaghter in law covered all of the cushions in her van and found the easiest way to do it was to get some thin ply wood and cut it about 1/2 an inch short of the cushion. Place it on the back and then cover the cushion and staple at the back onto the wood. If you have enough material left you can then cut a piece turning the edges in and staple all the way round the back for a nice neat finish. Not a needle or thread was in sight.
