Folding Beach Sling Chairs

Can I just tell you that I love these chairs?  They are adorable, COMFORTABLE, and pretty darned easy to make.  Heck, I made five of them!  The plans are available from Ana White for free!  If you know me, you know I worship the Alaskan ground she walks on.  :)

I made three of the adult versions as a special thank you to my son's preschool teacher and aides.  He is a full-time job in and out of our home and these ladies needed a place to relax for the summer.  I hope they've got a lot of use out of them.  I purchased the fabric from JoAnne's Fabrics and the wood I used for these is cedar, coated with Thompson's Water Sealer.  You can find the plans for the adult-sized version of the beach sling chair here.

 

I also had to make a few for my little darlings.  Ana has slightly different plans for the kid's version.  You can find the plans here.  These bad boys were made with pine, and I decided to paint them with white exterior paint. 

Made the kid's chairs with reversible fabric.

I'm kind of thinking they approve.  :)

Surprise yourself or someone else by giving these a try.
