Instant Slipcovers by Chair Aprons


Why Wait....

Miss Mustard Seed



via

I have always loved the look of slipcovers on dining chairs.  They add a certain charm and informality to a dining room.  I love the versatility of being able to change the look with the seasons too.  Slipcovers are practical, because they can easily be removed for washing.   The only downside to slipcovers, in my opinion, is expensive if they are custom made.  However, it sometimes beats the alternative of having the chairs reupholstered if you are in a hurry or don't have an upholstery person you like.  When I was in High Point at furniture market in April, I ran across a solution, that I think you will find interesting and affordable, if you like the slipcover look, but don't want to spend custom prices.  They adjust to fit almost any size dining chair. 
Plus, they ship quickly so your instant transformation can happen quickly! 

Introducing....





Here is the display booth at market.  Sorry the photographs aren't better.
 (ok, so it was the end of the day and I was exhausted!)


This was my favorite pattern.  This neutral pattern would work in so many places.


 Here is one of the wall displays.  The little boxes they come in are really cute.  These 
would make great gifts for wedding, mothers or friends.


Here is another display not he opposite wall.
I thought this was a clever way to display the patterns.



These four patterns/colors were popular at the show..


Dove Linx


Indigo Chevron


Swedish Blue


White Linen

  4. I have to reupholster my dining room chairs but these look like a fun option and will add more fabric to the space if the skirted option is chosen. Excited to see your shop, Lisa!

  7. This is a great idea! My dining room has way too much wood. I don't want to paint any of it, but I've thought of slipcovers for the chair seats and backs to add color and hide wood. I can't wait to see your online store!
