OK here I am trying to get DS's apartment looking like a place where humans live. Soooooo I go to the local thrift/junk/reuseit store and pick up some really REALLY nice teak wood chairs that previously lived in a bank or some business. They are really really expensive chairs and in GREAT condition and only cost $6 each - soooooooo I get 4 of them. You know 4 to go around the dining table and the legs are slanted so the boys can NOT NOT NOT do the lean back they are soooooo very fond of.
Now for my problem. The seats have a scoop. What is a scoop?? Well the seat cushions are kind of like a "C" lying on the side. Or you could say they are like an "O" with the top cut off. They are upholstered in a rough fabric and I want to do them in plain black. Only problem is the covers I made do not go down into the scoop. They go across the top and when you sit in them you pull the fabric where I stapled it.
Will it work if I spray permanent adhesive on the scoop part and then lay the fabric cover on top - smooth it and then staple it to the back?? Will this permanent adhesive keep the cover 'stuck' to the darn seat. I really hate to do up these seat covers and then have them unstick and look all floppy.
Any and all ideas will be appreciated. Thanks.
