    Covers for kids furniture

    I bought this vinyl chair (kid size) from walmart.ca and it's already cracking! The kids really love this chair and there are even fights about it so want to keep it. I do not want to buy a new one since I only had it a year and some sort of cover will do. I can't seem to find a place online that sells these. Any ideas? If I can't find a place I might attempt getting some fabric myself and sewing something, but sometimes my sewing isn't the best lol

    Do you care about damaging it? What about buying some heavy-duty oilcloth or canvas or something and using a big staple gun? My first thought...

    Check the IKEA site to see if any of the kids chairs look similar to yours as a lot of their stuff comes with covers you can buy.

    You can buy different vinyl or clear plastic that you could probably staple underneath the seat of the the chair. I have bought at fabricland in the past and they have a good selection of colours and patterns.

    I would try emailing the company that made the chair. They might be able to help you out!

    That stinks.... while not get some denim from a craft store and cover it in that? Personally, if you have cracks in it, I would cover it in a thick plastic tarp, so that if some one has an accident, it does not leak through to the padding.
