I’m a DIY pro – instead of paying $2000 for CB2’s cloud chair, I made my own dupe & it looks SO good
CB2’S furniture is the essence of modern luxury, but the problem is the prices match the mood.
From worn leather to plush fabric, one DIYer easily made her version of the brand’s viral chair.
CB2’s Gwenyth Ivory Boucle Chair is trending but it’s $1118 with shipping included.
TikTok’s lifestyle influencer Naomi DIY‘d her own.
She posted a video demonstrating how she turned an old chair into one that looks exactly like the CB2 one.
“I took this ugly seat and made it so cute,” she explains.

Naomi uses a soft white fabric she got from eBay to redecorate the outside of the chair.
On eBay, she searched for “boucle fabric.”
The seat is from an old department store, but Naomi recommends just searching for either a “love seat” or “cuddle seat.”
She lines the fabric over the top of the chair and staples it in place with a staple gun.

“This bit took a lot of patience and just making sure that I was going into the wood for it to stay secure,” she explains.
You have to ensure the fabric is pulled tight before locking it in with the staple gun is key.
Moving on to the seat, she cut out two pieces that were the same size as the seat.
She then sewed the pieces together using a needle and thread.
“I think it’s so cute,” Naomi says as she reveals the finished look.
