-
Remove all detachable cushions from your couch and set them aside.
-
Using your hand or a large wooden spoon, pat or beat repeatedly on any attached cushions. Work from the bottom of each cushion and move upward. Repeat this bottom-to-top method until you are satisfied, using more force when necessary to achieve the fluff you want.
-
Grab one of the removed cushions in one hand and hold it out, away from your body. With your other hand, hit the cushion a few times repeatedly, using the spoon or your bare hand.
-
Rotate the cushion in your hand, and continue to fluff it. Keep turning your cushion and beating it until you’ve turned it completely around and held all four sides.
-
Replace the cushions on your couch as you finish fluffing them until you are done and all the cushions are back in place.
The Drip Cap
- As the feathers in your down or feather-filled couch cushions are compressed, they settle and rearrange, clumping together and exposing harder portions of your couch's framework.
- The cushions end up looking saggy and sad.
