Cover for a Henriksdal chair - Updated 16/03/2024

I've wanted to buy a new cover for a Henriksdal chair from Ikea for some time and I found out that they no longer sell this model, the model that replaced it is smaller so the cover doesn't fit in the chair. Since I really needed a new cover, I decided to do it, this was the result.

Chair cover for a desk chair

I recently changed my sewing chair for a chair with wheels, but the upholstery of the new chair is a fabric that is a little warm for the summer and it attract threads and bits of fabric, I have to clean it all the time, so I decided to make a cover. 

I used fabric from a tablecloth, it's the same one I used to make the covers for the kitchen chairs that I shared earlier.

Ekedalen chair seat cover

I have Ekedalon chairs that I bought because the seat had removable covers that could be washed, what I didn't know when I bought them was that to remove the cover I have to remove the seat from the chair, which is not practical at all. 

So I decided to make some covers that I can place over the seat without having to take it off, this was the result. 

Updated sewing room

My sewing table became small when I bought the overlock machine, I had to constantly move things around, this already happened when I needed to cut fabrics and had to take the sewing machine out, but lately it got a lot worse, also I had nowhere to put things except on the floor.

DIY sewing table

This time I'm sharing my DIY sewing table, it was one of the first things I did because I couldn't find what I wanted. I was looking for a table or desk with storage that could be extended so that when not in use I could put it away and it took up little space.
