I couldn’t afford to replace my beaten up chairs so found an easy solution for £3.25 – they look brand new

IT can be expensive updating furniture.

So when Jessica Eales needed to replace her beaten up dining chairs, she researched ideas for updating them instead of shelling out hundreds for new ones.

As she couldn’t afford to buy new chairs, she bought chair covers from eBay[/caption]

She took to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook to share her clever idea, which cost her just £3.25 per chair.

“Desperately needed new chairs but couldn’t afford them,” she wrote.

“Instead I bought these stunning chair covers on eBay for just £13 for 4.

“They are such good quality and a lovely material.

“Perfect for a new look and hiding tears.”

She shared pictures of the leather-look chairs as they were – with the covering worn and torn.

And also once they’d been transformed – with a chic grey and white pattern on the covers.

“I’ve been looking at some of these for a while but was unsure about quality,” one person commented on the post.

“I’ve been persuaded now lol. They look great.”

To which Jessica replied: “They are amazing quality, can’t believe how good they are.”

“Have the same ones, been washed 100 times and still look great,” another added.

“I’ve bought these before, so many designs to choose from and they are great,” a third commented.

While someone else wrote: “Awesome, they look like brand new chairs.”
