I'm making fabric wheel covers for my wheelchair!
If you have been following me for some time, then you know that I have figured out a pretty good method for decorating my crutches. I now use a wheelchair much more frequently so that left the question of...how do I decorate my wheelchair? This is my first draft at a quick, cheap, and easy way to decorate my wheelchair to match my cosplays. It certainly isn't perfect, but I think this is a good starting place for me to work on future versions of wheelchair cosplays!
Let me know what you think. How would you decorate a wheelchair?

How would you decorate a wheelchair? I have a few ideas for wheelchair decorations in the future, but I would love to hear what you think!

Love how clean the overall finished products come out of your projects

@ColleenCosplay 3 года назад

Thank you so much! Lining and top stitching take a while, but I think it's really worth it for that cleaner look at the end!

Thank you for this, I used your method to make my son Pokémon themed wheels, I especially love your tip of using felt to keep it sturdy.

That's awesome! Thank you!

I love this Idea, I personally don’t have a wheel chair but I know people who did and I’ll show this to them and other than that I might acceally make a pillow by using this instead.

@ColleenCosplay 3 года назад

Awesome! and you can totally adapt this method for a pillow too, that's so creative!

Amazing! You are nifty with a sewing machine! I’d like to make some for my wheelchair. They should be easy to wash too huh?

@ColleenCosplay 10 месяцев назад

Thank you! And yes, just follow the washing instructions for whatever fabric you buy. For the fabrics used in this video I'd just throw the covers through the washer and dryer.

An equalateral triangle would look cool, if you can figure out how to attach it in just three places.

@ColleenCosplay 3 года назад

That's a good idea! If I used the right fabric I think I could get it to work!

Thai is so helpful thank you! Also I love your gloves that you use! If you don’t mind my asking, where did you get them?

@ColleenCosplay Год назад

I actually got them off of Etsy. Unfortunately they dont sell the gloves with the rubber palms anymore though. I'll have to start looking around for a replacement pair soon.
