Give New Life to Deflated Couch Cushions - FREE

If your house is anything like our family's, the couches take a ton of wear.  It is the first place we want to plop down when we get home.  Unfortunately, the "plopping" that is constantly going on is quite hard on pillow-backed couches.

There's a simple solution! and ITS FREE! So happy I did this, it makes my room look so much better!

How to Bring Back to Life Old, Deflated, Pillow-Back Couch Cushions

Unzip the bottom of the cushion, and pull out the large pillow (most likely in a mesh type of white fabric) that is inside of it

Cut the seam about 10 inches, or about enough to pull the stuffing out all at once.

The Pillow will be in one giant flat shape, and this is what we are trying to undo from years of sitting down in it the exact same way!

Pull the pillow apart, and separate the stuffing into tiny pieces

Stuff it back in to the fabric mesh lining as you pull it apart (the smaller pieces you get it, the better)

Sew up the mesh lining, and stuff the pillow back into the couch fabric


As the compressed pieces are pulled apart, there is more air in between each piece, and fluffiness occurs! The fabric of the couch will help it regain its shape, and you can help mold it a bit after it is all stuffed back in.  The couch may need help sometimes regaining its shape, but a few punches every few days should help keep it in its new, inflated position.  You will not regret giving life to your new couch! The extra back support while watching The Bachelorette won't hurt either ;)

***If your couch cushions won't stay inflated the absolutely free way, consider going to a craft store and spending a few dollars on craft stuffing, the extra puff it provides is sure to work, and will be well worth it for reviving your living room!
