Isn't it gorgeous?! The water tub will be a project for later in the Spring. So, I decided on what fabric to use. I like to buy fabric here and there, and use them eventually. And, when I say eventually, I mean 4 years later. That's how I roll. So, you take your fabric, and tear it into strips. I would totally show you a picture, but I forgot to take any! Do not tear them too wide. Now, I choose two different fabrics. This is a personal thing. No rules here. Once you have all of them ripped, its time to start tying.
Just wrap around the seat area, and tie in a nice tight knot. Keep going until all of the seat is covered. It will look like this.
Now you start tying the other direction. Now, this can be tricky. Not hard, just tricky. You weave these through the first. I kept repeating over-under in my head! It will start to look something like here.
I sat in my kitchen and did this while I was cooking supper. Took me about an hour to finish. Someone kept jumping up on the chair when I would go to check supper!
Meet Booger. He thinks its comfortable. I absolutely loved how the chair turned out! My husband even sat in the chair to see if it would break! It held up! Here is the finished product.
Hello precious.
