Re-covering your dining chairs? Dining chairs are used every day, and meals mean spills, so the fabric needs to look good and take wear. Here is what to think about before you choose.
What to look for
- A firm, tightly woven fabric. A chair seat is sat on and rubbed all the time. A dense fabric keeps its shape.
- A pattern or texture. Jacquard and patterned fabrics hide small marks better than a plain, smooth surface. Read more about jacquard upholstery fabric.
- Colour that suits the room. Look at the fabric next to your table, your floor and your walls, in your own room light.
- Comfort. Choose a fabric that feels pleasant for a long meal.
How much fabric do I need?
It depends on the number of chairs and on the shape of each one, for example a seat only, or a seat and a back. Bring one chair, or a photo and measurements, to our store and our team will help you work out the amount. If you are changing the curtains in the same room, see our curtain fabrics.
