Dining Chair Upholstery Update

wilma — Fri, 02 Apr 2021 17:50:16 GMT

Thanks again for all the comments & suggestions on reupholstering my dining room chairs. I have looked through lots of fabric sample books this week.

I decided to select a tone on tone print in a darker neutral. The fabric will be treated to resist stains. I'm also hoping the darker color won't show spills as easily as the ivory color cushions I have now. My choice will go with just about any color when I repaint the walls in the future. It also will work with all my seasonal and holiday tablecloths & decorations. I also decided to have a professional upholsterer do the work.

Here's my choice

I like it and it should be very practical. Those gravey stains will look like leaves.

I think the subtle pattern will work out great and the color too.

I have a subtle stripe in the fabric of my chairs. And the first time I had a dinner with my new dining room set, 2 people spilled 'stuff" on their seats. Never could get the stains out of the seat cover. I think having a pattern would ease the pain of looking at the stains.

Happy claps! I was hoping for a pattern in a lighter color.

This will be versatile.

@wilma Your choice is lovely. A great combination of tradition but modernized and very compatible with so many other schemes of color and style in my amateur opinion.

Bravo!

@wilma

I think it is one of those very subtle patterns that, even if there were a stain in it, it does not draw attention quickly like a white damask or a red velvet would, to your guests and most likely nobody will notice it even if it should happen and with the safeguarding, it will likely serve you well for years.
