Worth paying extra for cotton chair covers?

dingdongavoncalling

We've been given a quote of
£1.80 per chair for stretchy covers
£2.80 per chair for cotton covers
both include set up and collection and a coloured sash. Do you think it is worth the extra pound per person for cotton? And this is the cheapest quote we have found but there aren't many in our area, do you think it is reasonable? Thanks

Personally, I like the stretchy ones more than the cotton ones. Do you need chair covers? If so, have a look at Martha Stewarts DIY ones before you commit, some of them are absolutely stunning. We're probably going to go with these ones but done with a wallpaper that matches our colour scheme

I'm the other way around- I hate the stretchy ones. I can't stand seeing everything about the chairs underneath- what's the point in trying to cover them up if you can still see it?

I think that probably depends on the chair though. On the other hand I'm not sure I'd pay an extra pound a chair but that really depends on your budget and how many chairs there are.

I think it depends on the chairs tbh. Could you get a tester one of each to check which looks best with your chairs. The last venue I went to look at was all set up with black stretchy ones with white ribbons and they looked absolutely stunning!

Prefer the cotton ones, but the black stretchy with white ribbon sounds lovely!

Kheeli's idea is good about testers to see what you think looks best.
