So, about 4 or so years ago we bought a dining room set. I wanted chairs without cushions because I didn't want them to get dirty. Of course, the guy at the furniture store told us, "Oh, you can get cushions, just pay EXTRA and get them with Scotch Guard. Things will wipe off. Being the naive person I was I decided to try it! For the record Scotch Guard didn't work! So every few months I would scrub and scrub these stupid chairs, but they never looked good. Last month I decided to not clean them, but re-cover them so I didn't clean them! Yes, this is just a month of yuck--actually a month and a half. Well, a few weeks ago I went to the fabric store, found some fabric I liked and some plastic covering to go over it and I re-covered my chairs! Now I love them!! Oh, and for the record food does wipe of plastic!

Wow the Chairs look AWESOME! Love your choice of fabric.
Love it! I'd totally ask how you did it, except that I have wood chairs, so I'll probably just leave them as is. But yours are so cute!
And what's up with the whole Scotch Guard sales pitch? We got the same thing, and our couches are so not stain proof.
Love them! Look at you, crafty lady! I guess I can't complain about having no time to do stuff with one kid.. you have five and managed to do that! ;-)
