dining chair upholstery fabric

The right dining chair upholstery fabric can turn tired, stained seats into the highlight of your dining room. Dining chairs face spilled sauce, sticky fingers and daily friction, so the fabric you choose needs to look good and hold up to real life. Here is what to consider before you start reupholstering dining chairs.

What to Look for in Dining Chair Seat Fabric

Durability and Weight

Choose a medium to heavy upholstery-grade fabric with a tight weave. Durable upholstery fabric resists pilling, snagging and stretching, and it keeps its shape when stapled over a seat cushion.

Easy Cleaning

Stain resistant upholstery fabric and performance fabric for chairs are ideal for households with kids or pets. Look for finishes that let spills bead up so you can blot them away quickly.

Style and Pattern

• Solids and textures create a clean, timeless look.
• Small-scale patterns help disguise everyday wear.
• Bold prints add personality to a neutral room.
