Cover Office Desk Chair ! Looks Like New !

Our Computer desk chair was in a grubby state, as kev used it in the shed so it needed covering so we could use it at the computer inside !
So I decided to cover it in some 100% Cotton fabric, now it looks great, no need to buy a new one ! It was easy to cover we pulled the plastic back off and stappled the new fabric in place and did the same with the bottom. Cheap and easy the fabric cost me $3.50 a metre a few years ago used about 1 metre so just under
$4 to make our office chair like new !

    Thanks every one :) It's amazing what we can do to transform some old and grubby things to look like new...in this case a metre of fabric and an hour of time ! looking forward to hearing how your chair went Glenys from Tassie :)

    Great looking chair Sherrie. I've recovered chair seats, but never something like this. Well done!

    Hi! I love this idea, what a great, easy way to even change the look of your whole office! I just featured you on my blog (dont get excited, i started last week and have zero followers hahaha). Im new to blogging and just realised it might be ettiqite to ASK if i can feature this chair on my blog before doing so ... therefore I will immediately delete the post if you disaprove. I just love this idea! thanks :-)

    Hi Mrs K ...I 'm very happy any one putting my posts on their blog as along as that put a mention that it came from my blog... The idea when I started blogging was a way to share all my ideas, recipes,crafts and recycling etc with every one... so others can use them and save money and to also pass them on to others who may also find them useful. I liked your blog !
