I fold mine on the bed. That way I HAVE to get it finished before I go to bed. Works like a champ...
But yesterday..... my daughter disguised herself as some laundry on the bed....
Did it work?
Do you see her....?
She is soooo tricky....!!!
She certainly had me going there for a while....!!!!
And it is wonderful because you can even wipe it off!
To the left you see a fun vintage solid wood chair I found. I love this chair. It even has lovely woodcarving! Lucky me for finding it!
I painted it red and covered the seat with new fabric...
But this fabric I chose is light in color....
Do you really think it will survive my children (and me....) without getting smudged?
I think not....!!!
So I need to do something to protect the fabric....
I bought some vinyl from the fabric store....
I bought a whole yard, which is WAY too much, but I might need it again, so now I have it on hand...
- vinyl, cut to size (larger than the seat....)
- staple gun
Easy schmeezy....
Just pull it tight as you cover the front and staple the back.....
You can't even tell it has that sterile looking plastic on the chair....
Right....????
Makes me smile to see the happy colors.....
and they will stay that color!
YAY!!!!!

P.S. You can also use this method to protect potato sack covered chairs, as the loosely woven jute fabric has a tendency to snag....
