Cream Leather Dining Chairs
After many years of being sat upon, the cream leather dining chairs around the table often become unsightly as their padding wears out. Nothing is quite as embarrassing to a home owner as realizing that his or her guests must sit on cream leather dining chairs with the stuffing coming out. This problem can be remedied, however, with a small time and some simple, affordable items from the local fabric and hardware stores. Turn your cream leather dining chairs over, and you might notice that the fabric covering the chair is stapled in place. By removing the fabric, you've made the first step. This can be done by removing the staples, or by cutting the fabric around the staples.
Next, measure the dimensions of the cream leather dining chairs for the fabric to use as covering. When buying the fabric, choose a durable fabric that is relatively easy to clean. Also, make sure to leave at least an extra foot for each side of the chair. This ensures that there is enough fabric to fit over the padding and enough to be anchored to the bottom of the chair. It's much better to have too far than not really enough. You can usually trim the excess. Choose padding that is durable as well. Foam padding works well.
Most large fabric and craft specialty shops sell padding that is particularly designed for upholstery. A small extra padding is a good idea for each of the cream leather dining chairs as well. After buying the supplies (don't forget to buy a staple gun and staples at the hardware store--a clerk should be able to help you find what you need), trace a pattern, using the cream leather dining chairs, on some fine poster board. This pattern will be used to correctly cut out the padding.
Using a pencil, and the pattern, trace a guide on the padding. As you cut the padding into the proper shape for placement on the cream leather dining chairs, it is a fine idea to leave half an inch to an inch. When the fabric is pulled tight over the padding and cream leather dining chairs, the extra will ensure that the entire seat is covered. Next, place the fabric, design side down, spread out on the floor. Place the padding in the middle of the fabric.
Next, match the seats of the cream leather dining chairs to the padding. Bring up the sides, so that they are poised to be stapled to the underside of the cream leather dining chairs. The task can be made easier with help. Pull the fabric tense, but not really so tight that there isn't any give, and staple the fabric. Trim any excess fabric. Finally, turn the cream leather dining chairs right-side up and place them around the table. It looks like a brand new room, and you did it by yourself!
