Bee happy ..... pretty up a chair

I don't know about the rest of you but most office desk chairs come in boring plain colours or too bright you feel sick! I decided to make mine prettier so it fitted into my office better.


I decided to make covers for it.  In the past on a chair before this I actually took the chair apart to cover the seat pads but couldn't be bothered to do this on this chair. 


For the seat I made something similar to a shower cap based on the seat shape with elastic through the edges.  This is hidden underneath.

For the back of the seat I used 2 circle shapes but following the lines of the chair and sewed the 2 pieces together around 3 sides.  I used ribbon instead of elastic for this piece.


When it's fitted just pull the ribbon and tie in a pretty bow.


Both covers can be easily taken off and washed unlike when I took the last chair apart!

Bee happy x
Have a delicious day!
