Covering a recliner with a blanket is a simple and effective way to protect your furniture while adding a touch of style and comfort to your living space. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do it properly.
Step-by-Step Guide to Covering a Recliner with a Blanket
-
Choose the Right Blanket: Select a blanket that complements your décor and is large enough to cover the entire recliner. For optimal protection and aesthetics, consider our range of recliner sofa covers which are designed to fit perfectly.
-
Prepare the Recliner: Make sure your recliner is clean and free from dust. If necessary, give it a quick vacuum to remove any debris. This will help the blanket lay smoothly and stay in place.
-
Drape the Blanket:
- Positioning: Drape the blanket over the back of the recliner, letting it cascade down the front and sides. Ensure it covers the backrest, seat, and footrest evenly.
- Tucking: Tuck the edges of the blanket into the crevices of the recliner to keep it secure. This will prevent it from slipping off when the recliner is in use.
-
Secure the Blanket:
- Using Clips or Pins: If the blanket tends to slip, you can use upholstery pins or furniture clips to secure it in place. Attach the pins or clips at discreet points where they won’t be noticeable but will hold the blanket firmly.
- Elastic Straps: Alternatively, you can use elastic straps to secure the blanket. Simply wrap the straps around the recliner and fasten them, ensuring the blanket remains taut and secure.
-
Final Adjustments: Smooth out any wrinkles and make sure the blanket is evenly distributed. This will not only look better but also provide more comfort and protection for your recliner.
