A very easy solution to this problem exists, and it won’t cost a lot of money.
Things You Will Need
-
Go to any place that sells carpeting or rugs and look for non-slip mats sold to keep rugs from sliding around on smooth surfaces. If you can’t find a place locally that sells these, you can order them online. Choose one close to your couch’s length.
-
Remove the couch cushions, if possible. Measure the length of the couch (on the inside sitting area) and compare this to the length of the non-slip mat.
-
Trim off any excess length (or width) from the non-slip mat. Vacuum the area beneath your couch cushions to remove dust and crumbs--this way the non-slip mat can get a firmer grip.
-
Place the non-slip mat firmly on the couch, pressing it down and smoothing any lumps or bumps.
-
Place the cushions on top of the mat, in their proper placement on your couch. Your cushions should now stick more firmly and not slide around.
The Drip Cap
- Couch cushion upholstery is often not rough enough to keep the cushions from sliding.
- This means that time and time again, you’ll have to push the cushions back in place in order to sit comfortably, and to keep your couch from looking sloppy.
