If you were going to make dining chair covers - what material would you choose?

[D0oinMeCleanin]

Bearing in mind that I have two small children, two dogs and a cat, all of whom sit on the chairs.

Lurking!

Just the seat or those big skirt ones that cover the whole chair?

I was wondering about oilcloth for our bench TBH

Something washable or wipable I'd think.

I think I've just decided to get them reupholstered in real leather. A chair at a time since it's forty fecking quid a chair

PVC leathercloth.

my mum did that years ago - got a bit of padding, then stuck the cloth to the chairs with upholstery pins.

they're great fort kids - not only do they wipe clean, but they blow out wind when you sit down

hours of fun for a child
