Now, the first step is to find a couch slipcover that fits your outdated couch. I like to check out Bed Bath and beyond, ebay, and local home deco restores for great custom canvas and velvet slipcovers for your couch.

Generally you can expect to pay about $100 for your couch slipcover.

You could always make your own slip cover out of canvas or any material.

So, you should always go ahead and install your couch slipcover. This is important because it will help you in the placement of your vintage buttons.

Now, start planning out the pattern you want to lay out your Vintage Buttons on the Custom Couch Slip Cover.

Tips: Try creating patterns with the vintage buttons. Also, always avoid sewing on buttons where you will be sitting, this will not be comfortable.

So, I recommend having a little whimsical fin with these vintage buttons and sewing them in lines that follow the sewn lines on the Custom Couch Slip Cover. Outline the sofa like you would if you were drawing a cartoon image of the sofa!

You can mix and match the colors of your vintage buttons for a more eclectic look or stick to all one color.
