How do I secure lawn chair webbing to futon bars?
I had bought lawn chair webbing to run thru the bars to prevent futon mattress from slipping thru does anyone have any ideas on how to secure the webbing to the bars?

I ran a piece of rubber matting in my futon to keep the pad from slipping. I just wove it thru the slats and used a needle and thread to secure the ends to itself.
WHat is rubber matting
I would just loop it over at the end of each run and fasten it to itself if you can't staple them down.
Hi Jeanne,
You could staple each piece (sideways) after it's in place. Just be sure that it is tight. You could also pin then sew it with heavy duty thread, dental floss or nylon fishing line. Wishing you the best.
I never thought of using dental floss
Hello Jeanne,
Staples or Upholstery thread stitching should be good.
Thank you for all your help
I will post a pic when finished
