Adding fabric to the back of a cube organizer is a fun way to personalize this piece of furniture!
Adding fabric to the back of a cube organizer is a fun way to personalize this piece of furniture!
Gather all of your materials. You will need: - Cardboard squares that came with the cube organizer - Fabric (ironed) - Nails (the furniture usually comes with nails to attach the back squares, otherwise buy short nails - Hammer - Stapler - Duct tape or masking tape
Cut the fabric for each cardboard square you want to cover. I had a 9 cube organizer and decided to just cover 4 of the cardboard squares and leave 5 uncovered - you could do this or cover all of them! I cut my fabric to be about 1"-2" larger on every side of the cardboard square.
Wrap the fabric around each cardboard square and staple it in place. Make sure to smooth your fabric so it is taut and staple close to the edges. I started in the center of each side, then did the corners, and then added staples between all of these. I ended up with about 3 staples per side and 1 in every corner.
Nail the cardboard squares to the back of the cube organizer. At this point you are basically following the directions that came with the furniture.
Secure the fabric edges on the back of each square. I chose to use duct tape because my cube organizer is against the wall and the back will never be seen.
Your cube organizer is officially jazzed up! I love how playful and fun the fabric is!
