I recently did a blog post about customizing your car seats for your kiddos. I have this type of thing on the brain. So sue me! This is another project that I’ve been wanting to tackle for a very long time but haven’t worked up the nerve to do it. We’ve used the same Graco high chair for nearly a decade through all 4 of our kiddos, and Sarie still uses it. The cushion on it bit the dust years ago, and I’ve always folded blankets and put them in there. It was originally just supposed to be a temporary fix. [Actually, I would love to have an antique wooden high chair that goes right up to the table instead of this bulky, plastic seat...but that's a different post!]
Over at Make It and Love It, you will find a wonderful tut for making your own custom seat cover for a high chair. The fabrics that Ashley used are fabulous! I would love to make one similar to that and also have it be reversible.
If you have the ANTILOP high chair from IKEA, then BurdaStyle can hook you up with a free pattern!
And I was inspired with this Crafter user’s ingenuity with creating a new high chair cushion from an inexpensive shower curtain! Now THAT is usin’ the noggin!
Yeah, so it looks like I have many options when it comes to sewing up a new cushion for my baby’s high chair. Now that I see how ‘easy’ this project can be, then maybe I can get my mess together and have it done - before Christmas!
Have you created a high chair cushion before? I’d love to hear about your experiences!
I have that ANTILOP chair!! I just might work on me a seat cover/cushion for it!! YAY! Great post ideas!!
Love you,
Kelli
