I have a sofa and love seat that the cushions slide off of whenever someone sits on it. Then I have to lift the pillowtop back to slide the cushions up under it and back into place. This becomes very upsetting when it has to be done so often. Any solutions?

Thanks,
Nelwyn from Bunkie, LA

WOW. We tried Velcro but it wouldn't stay attached to the sofa. We then tried to to sew it on but gave up as it was taking too long. Then we tried to staple it on but the staples wouldn't hold. Then even tried using darn magnets. Then I took 5 minutes googled found this post and the foam rubber matting worked perfect! Thanks so much.

I agree with the duck Contact paper (it is thick and washable) that you use to line cabinets/drawers. I even use it on the top of my fridge and the tank of my toilets! I had one under the keyboard of the computer for awhile, but my baby took off with it too many times!!

The cushions of my leather sofa slip-slide, too. I tried bathtub decals that keep you from slipping in the bathtub. It did NOT work.

You can also use thin sheets of foam rubber. I use this to keep my top matress on the box springs. Works like a charm.

I had this problem too and found rubber rolled mats at the dollar store, they are used to keep things from sliding in the cabinets but i found they work great to keep the cushions from sliding

If possible, try Velcro on the underside of the cushions. You can buy sticky velcro, and it shouldn't show once installed.
