'I have no idea why but we had such a hard time trying to find anywhere that could make our cushions for us. Right from the beginning we promised to do everything in the van by ourselves but making the covers was definitely something I wanted a professional to do as I am absolutely terrible when it comes to anything upholstery related!
We bought the foam ourselves which would be easy enough to cut which meant we just needed someone to make our covers for us. We had our fabric picked out too after a lot of back and forward. In the end we opted for not the prettiest but the most durable.
We tried so many places locally and phoned all over and most places just didn’t get back to us. After a couple of months of giving up I finally found a photo on Instagram from @theskullshed and their work looked amazing. I noticed they were located down south however thought it wouldn’t hurt to message especially since I clearly wasn't having any luck anywhere else. Sarah got back to me straight away and was more than happy to make our covers for us and even send them via post to us in Scotland. She got them done even earlier than we expected and throughout the whole process kept in touch. When they arrived we were more than happy with them and she even threw in some haribo sweets and a card to go along with them. I honestly cannot recommend Sarah enough and I am so happy we managed to find her! She also gave me advice on adding polyester wadding to the foam to make them extra soft. She was more than willing to go the extra mile to help us out and if any of you guys are looking to get your upholstery done in your van I would absolutely get in touch with her! 💀
After our covers arrived from Sarah I got to work cutting out the foam using an electric bread knife, it was quite satisfying. I used spray adhesive to stick on the polyester wadding and popped them into their lovely covers!
So happy with the outcome and it feels like such a homely touch has been added to the van after months of just wood! 😊💜'
