Diy Couch Makeover

This is my current couch that I bought last year, and though

I really liked it, it has just felt way to elegant for me so I decided to look into how to add some nail heads to the couch to give it a rustic modern feel to cozy.

Here is a picture of it completed.

I truly love how it turned out and love the more casual feel

it gives the couch.  Although a few friends that have seen

it said it makes it look fancy!

Not the look I was going for!

Anyway,  I do like it. 

I ordered the nail heads from Amazon and chose

the Antique ones.  I already had a tack hammer so

that I didn't need to order.

I started off by using the measuring tape that comes in the 

package of nail tacks.

I used scotch tape to tape it to both ends of the first piece of the

sectional making every inch with a pencil.

I cannot tell you how easy it was to do this.

I used the tack hammer and just gently hammered

each tack every one inch.  

Once I finished the one section I set up the next section

right next to the first one to easily line up the next row of

tack nails. 

I saw online that you can also put the nails much closer together

but I prefer the one inch gap between them as you can see here above.  

All in all it took me about 45 minutes to complete this diy makeover.  

Below here you can see how it turned out.  What a great idea to add to any chair or couch or any other piece of furniture you might want to add a little touch to.
