We are currently working on upholstering one of the toilets so that it may be transformed into a seating device a.k.a a chair. Amanda and I are cutting out recycled swatch samples of awesomely tactile upholstery fabric, graciously donated by local Gartner’s and Kirkish furniture stores, into different size squares and rectangles so that they may be sewn into a quilt-like pattern that will create a unique slip cover for the toilet seat. It was made to sit on already, why not make it a seat you want to sit on instead of a seat you have to sit on!
After struggling with math and measurements, Amanda and I gave in—mostly me—and resorted to stencils (that we made ourselves out of cardboard) which sped up the process radically. Now all that is left is to cut out the rest of the fabric samples, sew them together and finish the slip cover for the seat of our well-on-it’s-way-to-becoming-a-chair toilet. We will post images when it is complete!
If you have any suggestions, comments, or crazy ideas please leave a comment!
