DIY: Check Chair Cushion

DIY: Check Chair Cushion

Here's a quick little makeover I did on my two Ikea Stefan kitchen chairs...


1. Supplies: two foam cushions, cabin check Country Curtains fabric (about 1.5 yds), staple gun and screw driver.
2. Cut corners on the back of cushion to fit chair seat. Repeat on other side.

3. Measure fabric over cushion allowing enough fabric to tuck under seat.
4. Unscrew seat from chair.

5. Use measured fabric as guide for additional chairs.
6. Use cut foam as guide for additional chairs.

7. Staple the fabric to bottom of seat. Or use upholstery tacks and hammer.
8. Screw seat back on chair.

As a bonus, I used the additional check fabric to cover the window seat cushion that came with the house. Since we're renting, I didn't want anything permanent and just cut the fabric to size and tucked into place...
...TGIF!

Yours,
