Measure the piece of furniture where you'll put the cover on. I'll be using this storage thingy where i keep my sneakers. My cover will measure 32x70cm so i drew that over my fabric.
Iron the fabric through the lines you drew so that you have a nice and clean fold.
Cut the excess of fabric.
Cut a little triangle on each corner so that when you glue everything there's not an excess of fabric there.
Glue everything! If your fabric isn't very thick make sure you don't add too much glue.
After folding everything leave it to dry.
Cut a piece of paper of the exact meaure as one of the sides (mine was of 32cm). Fold it a couple of times till you have the number of decorations you want.
Mark the folds of the paper on the fabric so that you know where to sew the decorations later.
This is what we'll need to make the decorations on the cover.
Introduce the head pin into the bead and make a loop by helping you with the pliers. I'm no expert in doing this so i'm no good for explaining it but here you a video that makes it really easy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYlYQL49WNQ.
Open one of the jump rings (here if you need tips: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpcdZbglJAg), pass the loop inside od it and close.
Repeat the previous steps till to have all the beads ready to sew.
I said that this was "no-sew" but since this is so simple i don't think it really counts as sewing lol. Ok, so just sew the jump ring to the fabric exactly where you did one of the marks.
If you want, glue the back of the stitches so that they won't come off so easily. Let the glue dry.
And you're ready!
