In this video we show you how to upholster channel tufted backs or fluted backs. This particular piece was used for a bench seating area but the same technique can be used on all kinds of channel tufted backs and even diy channel tufted headboards! This is a new technique to the channel tufted techniques I have shown you before and it's one I personally find the easiest.

THE EASIEST WAY TO UPHOLSTER CHANNEL TUFTED BACKS | FLUTED BACKS | FaceliftInteriors
Hi Guys!! Come and follow me over on Instagram too 🙂👍 instagram.com/faceliftinteriors
Brilliant! Fluted sections can be replaced individually if there is ever a need. Love the look! Thanks!
Hi love this video. How would you go about doing this with two 90 degree corners? Any tips. Thank you
Do the work on site for a start. Also you could do all the flutes separately so you can make adjustments easily.
Wouldn't do a 90° on one board!
Keep your eyes peeled for

I was not prepared for how quirky the voice behind this video was going to be. I was expecting a formal training video, not weird noises and finger guns. I'm really pleasantly surprised.
Weird noises and finger guns 🤣 unfortunately that’s me!! But I’m glad you were pleasantly surprised and not put off and it’s not everyone’s cup of tea - but thank you for watching, I hope you found it helpful 😊
I came to see how to reupholster over pre-made purchased fluted headboards WITHOUT taking them apart into separate pieces, which I cannot do. I guess the only way is to cut the fabric and leave a split close to the edge but I'm afraid it will weaken and rip there.
can you also do tutorial for round channel tufted head board thank you
the process is very good so it makes me easy to understand. greetings of success, sir. 👌
from me a sofa craftsman from Indonesia living in the city of Manado👐
Hi there! Thank you for watching my videos, I’m glad you find them helpful. Good luck to you being a sofa craftsman and best wishes to Indonesia 🤝
Could you please do a video on how you would also upholster the rear of the panel, so that both sides are covered in fabric with clean edging
What kind of wood did you use & how thick. How thick is the dacron you use. I know you said you had an allowance for the width of the flutes, but do you cut the height the same size as the base board? I want to thank you for your video. I have a customer that asked if I could do something like this. In my head it made sence to use the technique you have demonstrated here, then I founf your video and it gave me confidence to approch this job. It's going to be a floating backrest above some cushions (that I will also be making, making cushions is one of my favorite things to do) 2 walls meeting 1 about 100" and the other about 90". I know it will be a challenge but I think I got it all worked out in my head.
I just love that teeing off sound effect! great video Neil.
Haha thank you!! 😊👍🏻
Great video, thank you
Thank you 😊👍🏻
I've learned something new from each of your videos. Very good teacher.
Thank you
Hi Naureen! That means a lot to hear, thank you so much! I’m glad you find my videos helpful 😊
Hi Naureen! That means a lot to hear, thank you so much! I’m glad you find my videos helpful 😊
This is very satisfying to watch.
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching 😊
Love this tutorial. Thanks. Any tips on seat pad thickness if you are making a solid base rather than on top of a wall?
This is my favorite tutorial yet
This is one way to do it. There are 2 other ways to do channels, too. Just split the base board with 1/ 2-inch space and pull the fabric through it, and the other way is to stitch the fabric in channels and stapler it between each foam channel.
Hi Tony, I find this way is cleaner! Sewing them in never turns out great imo. Hope you are keeping well! ✂️📐📎🧵⛏️👍
Can you do a video on a wing back chair inside wing ? I’ve torn down mine 4 times !
Hi Donna! Of course, as soon as I get one in I’ll be sure to make a video for you 😊👍🏻
@@faceliftinteriors thank you so much!
No problem 😊
Hi Neil, what board are you using? And How thick is it please? Thank you
Hi Marie! Thanks for watching - I used 11mm MDF boards and pinned and screwed then on to another 11mm MDF board. Hope this helps 😊👍🏻
You Sir are a genius at what you do.
Haha you’re too kind Lavinia!
Amazing job! Can you send a link to the foam? Thanks!
Hi there! I don’t have a link to the foam unfortunately but I get my upholstery foam from GB Foam. I hope that helps 😊👍🏻
when making individual channels for mounting on a wall in a commercial space, how do you handle the corner where two walls meet?
Hi Patti! One channel would have to go all the way to the wall and the other would butt up to it. So you’d have to make allowances I.e make the one against the wall slightly longer and the one that butts up to it would be slightly shorter. So if the total length of the channeled back rest was 100inches by 100inches. You’d make one back 100 and the other 98 (if the foam and wood measured 2inches thick) If that makes sense 🤣
Очень красиво, вы молодец👍
Спасибо, очень любезно
Very informative and looks good mate, thanks very much.
Cheers Danny! Thanks for watching 👍🏻
hi, I have a question. If I have a 120 × 60 cm board, can I make eight flutes of 15×60? or do I have to leave some space between the flutes?
Hey!! I would give about 3mm (total) of space on each flute to allow for the padding and fabric so I would do 14.7x60 if you want 8 flutes total. Hope that makes sense 😊👍🏻
@@faceliftinteriors yess makes sense thank you 😊
Great video! What type of foam did you use? How thick it is? It looks really nice 👍
Hi there! Thanks a lot 😊👍🏻 I used 2inch white foam 👍🏻
I have a 4" memory foam mattress topper that we don't use any more, could we use this with this technique for making a headboard do you think? What thickness MDF did you use? is it 18mm
I'm actually doing these today
Let me know how you get on. Send me some pictures on Instagram! 👍⛏️📎✂️📐🧵
When you gonna upload a new video ? Waiting for it
Today!! In an hour and a half 😁👍🏻 see you then!
How was the board attached to the wall?
Hi Julie. Sorry for the delay in responding. I use either industrial strength Velcro or a baton and industrial strength Velcro so you can take it on and off for easy cleaning.
How did you secure the board onto the wall or how would you secure this to a wooden frame
Could I somehow do this with cardboard to add as a headboard cover rather than a replacement
Do you mean making it out of cardboard rather than wood?
@@faceliftinteriors yeah!
You can save a bit more time and get a clean look by drawing a line on the back of the wood to staple to...then every one has exactly the same look and tension and no dips or cat pulls.
Loved the video :) Great technique
What type of foam is better to be used for this project? Medium density (23-130) or High density (36-130)?
Brilliant, thank you!
Thanks for watching 😊👍🏻
Great videos keep it going well done
Thanks a lot David, means a lot 😊🙏🏻
@@faceliftinteriors trying to make my own banquet seating for a bar I'm opening so your videos will be watch many times
excellent job
Thank you man 😊🙏🏻
Neil why would you use dacron and not 1/2 foam? Is it just preference?
Dacron allows the fabric to move more freely and the foam causes friction! 📐🧵⛏️✂️
Great job
Thank you! 😊🙏🏻
how thick were those pieces of wood?
Hi there! 12mm wood 😊👍🏻
Thanks. A great video and my go to when I start my own.
@@mrlimey That's really great to hear! Thank you so much for watching and I'm glad you found it helpful.
Gorgeous
That’s really kind, thank you Angelica! Thank you for watching 😊👍🏻
Great! 💖
Thank you 😊 🙏🏻
Hi mate, I'm doing a pub , so no matter what the length just take 3mm off ?
Hi mate! Yea mate, that’s what I would do if it’s one panel 👍🏻 take the 3mm per flute.
Really great video thanks! I am wondering if you happen to have a video showing how you attached it to the wall. I would really appreciate that.
Thank you for watching! I used industrial strength Velcro for this one. It doesn’t move at all but can be removed if required 😊👍🏻
Brilliant idea and easy enough for my non DIY brain 😆 great to see a video from a fellow Brit too 🇬🇧
So sorry for the delayed response! Go for it, would love to see how you get on!! 😊👍🏻
How do you attach it to the wall?
Hi there! Either use industrial strength Velcro or a baton plus Velcro so you can take it on and off easily for cleaning.
Great tutorial. Overall with the mdf boards and the foam/material, how thick do you think this was from the wall? We have limited space (depth), do you think it could work with 1” foam?
Hi Samuel! You could use thinner MDF for the back board and the flute boards to save you some room and you could absolutely use 1inch foam on the flutes. They wouldn’t look quite as round and luxurious but it would still work 😊👍🏻
@@faceliftinteriors thank you so much I’ll give this a go! Thanks for the advice.
Hi can you show me how I can upholster a iron head and footboard?
Hey, this is amazing. What could be used to hold the woods together instead of a pin gun? Also what fabric is it, any links please xXx
Hi Emma, thank you so much! You could screw them together. I did this after, however I just find pinning is quicker just to hold it in place. This fabric is by Sunbury Design and it’s called ‘Nappa’ - it’s an aqua-clean fabric too 😊👍🏻
Nice one, i need to try it as well
Yea it’s much easier to make it cleaner than the other way 👍🏻
