There are many expensive ways to upgrade your home, your furniture or your living space in general. Being that I am one who loves to save money, I wanted to find a way to freshen up my home for less. We have been complaining about the easily dirtied cream colored dining room chairs. We had to constantly clean them. After looking high and low, we were never able to find suitable covers.
So after doing some research on YouTube, we found a simple way to recover the chair seats for a cost of little to nothing. Please keep in mind that I have no crafty bone in my body. Yet my husband and I had little difficulty recovering our chairs. We went to our local Walmart’s fabric center and guestimated how much fabric we would need to cover 6 chairs. I asked the sales lady which fabrics are best for chair re-upholstery and she directed me to a specific selection. It cost us just under $9.00. We then reviewed and followed the video on YouTube and we were done in less than an hour.
Here is the before and after:
(I forgot to take a picture of the unarmed chairs prior to recovering. Here is a pic of one of the armed chairs in the original fabric/color.)
(Here is the finished product.)
