Abstract

Handles for furniture, and in particular handles for mattresses, may be made by, among other things, securing (110, 112, 118) a piece of fabric (102) along the perimeter of the mattress, and more particularly, by securing an excess section of border panel fabric to the side wall (106) of the mattress so that the excess section of border panel forms a handle (108) that can be gripped and manipulated by a user. Embodiments include furniture handles, such as handles for mattresses, cushions, futons and the like. In other aspects, methods for making such handles are shown including methods that secure an oversized border panel to the sidewall of a mattress such that a portion of the border panel can be folded over onto itself and formed into a handle.
