Refresh your chair – Creative ideas for a new covering
5/5 - (6 votes)

Are you tired of the same old, worn-out look of your Ikea chairs? It’s time to give them a fresh makeover with new, beautiful covers! Whether you own a Poäng, Harry, Henriksdal, Bergmund or any other popular IKEA chair, a new cover can breathe fresh life into your furniture.

How to remove the old fabric cover from an Ikea chair?

The chairs usually have some covers already on them. Therefore, before installing a new cover, it is necessary to remove the old one so that it does not interfere and cause problems.
Depending on the chair model, different types have different ways of removing the covers. Some covers include few parts, and other are just a single cover.

How to cover a Chair with fabric slipcover?

While ordering a cover for your Ikea chair, it’s important to make sure which model exactly you have. Different models may look similar, but their dimensions may differ significantly. How to check it? The best would be to check the label on your furniture. We recommend measuring the chair either way and compare the dimensions with the ones provided on our website. When it comes to putting the cover on – it’s quite an easy task. Most of the covers for Ikea chairs include a cover, which is only one single part.

What are some common mistakes to avoid when reupholstering a chair?

While changing a cover on your chair, it’s important to remember about few things.

1) Wash your covers first. But always check the washing instructions before that. Some covers can be machine washed at 40 degrees, other at 30 degrees, and others cannot be washed in the washing machine – only hand washing is possible. There are exceptions, such as spill-proof or outdoor covers, which cannot be machine washed nor hand washed. They can only be spot-cleaned.
2) Always check both washing guidelines and ironing instructions.
3) Make sure you’re putting the right chair cover parts the right way and on the right part.

What is the best fabric to cover chairs with?

When it comes to the best fabric for chair cover, the answer is- it depends. The most important thing is the placement of the chair. When you’re looking for a kitchen chair cover, the best will be spill-proof material due to its liquid resistance. If you’re planning to stand your chair in the living room, childrens room or home office, any fabric will be good. A wide array of colors available allows you to match the chair cover to the whole interior design or your preferences.
