What a treasure.

Great job! Did you scotchguard the seats, or how are you protecting them from stains?

We just looked at JoAnn this weekend and found fabric we both liked (to upholster the dining chairs) COUGH COUGH: $59.99 per yard. Waiting for 50% off.

Thanks for the reminder I need to scotchguard mine....doing that now.!! I got my material for 1.80 a yard still in the plastic wrap on the bolt at a consignment store.

Yup it folds that is why I bought it. I really like it.
