We've had this little blue couch in the playroom for a few years now and I think it desperately needs to be recovered. Without the flash on, it didn't look too bad BUT with the flash on you can see how it's faded really badly and the water stains from the last time I cleaned it. Note to self - never spot clean and always clean the entire couch to achieve an all over drying pattern and no water stains.
So, have you ever reupholstered your own furniture? Is it hard to do?
That wee little couch was almost $500. Ouch! We bought it from a store that caters to daycares and preschools so it was supposed to be the most durable. All in all, it's held up to the test construction wise it just looks yucky.
I wonder how much it will cost to have this job done professionally....

I've done kitchen chair cushions before. A staple gun is needed. I don't know if your mom could sew a cover for the pillow?
Good Luck
