There is a complete turnabout in the use of bar stool cushions today. Before, cushions were used solely to make a seat more comfortable. They were also used to hide worn out and grimy stool upholstery. Now, you can liven up and make comfy generic bar stools by putting stool cushions on them. The proliferation of exquisite cushions in the market today made it possible to completely change a room’s ambiance and character simply by changing cushions.

If you are tired of looking at your boring black-upholstered stool bar, get some colored cushions to lift up the room. You can mix match cushions by simply coordinating different colors. If the bar area’s color motif is green, you have the option to get some plains in different shades of green and add one or two splashes of orange prints. If it’s Halloween and you want a themed- look, get some black suede stool cushions, set up a bowl of orange M&Ms and you’re all set for a fun party. Don’t forget the booze!

You can change the stool cushion in synch with the season. For the Holidays, red and green plaids are great choices. For spring, choose prints of small flowers. For summer, yellows, oranges and bright blues. For autumn, browns and burnt siennas will be perfect. Not only are bar stool cushions a perfect way to protect the stools’ upholstery from wear and tear, they are also ideal for quick and inexpensive makeovers.

There are various types of bar stool cushions out in the market today. There’s really no need to painstakingly measure the bar stool as available bar stool cushions fits most round stools as they come in 11 ½ -inch to 13-inch diameter and has elastics on the edges for an easy slip and fit. If your bar stool is square, there are ready-made bar stool cushions for them too.

There are two basic types of square cushions. The old style was for cushions that have ties that you need to fasten on the stools or chairs to stay put. The new product in bar stool cushions are those that have grippers or no-slip latex backing that will keep the cushion in place without the hassle of ties. These slip-resistant cushions are an easy way to do a bar- stool- cushion -makeover instantly. Sizes vary from 15½”W x 2″H x 14″D to 17”Wx2”HX16”D. Usual thickness of the cushion is 2 inches which is just about right for a comfort. Materials used for stool cushions are varied: polyester, cotton, denim, suede, even water-resistant fabric perfect for outdoor bars. Fabric designs and colors are varied too. It is best to check if the fabric covering the stool cushion are machine washable.

If your cushions require a unique color or design pattern, or your bench is a size that that is not common, then having custom bench and seat cushion made your specifications will be the best option. There are a number of online retailers that are set up to manufacture made to order seat and bench cushions. They typically offer a wide range of fabric choices and the finished cushion size can be based on the exact bench seat dimension.

Indoor Vs Outdoor Bench Cushions

As one might imagine, the requirements for outdoor cushions are more demanding than the typical indoor bench seat cushion due to the exposure to the weather, particularly moisture. If you are looking for outdoor bench cushions, make sure the fill is mildew resistant. One of the more common fill materials is layered-polyester fiber. In addition to being mildew resistant, these fibers will not hold water. The most common fill used for indoor cushions is cumulus or foam filling. Those preferring a firmer cushion should select the foam fill.

Obviously material used for patio bench cushions needs to be more resistant to fading and withstand the effects of rain and sun. Synthetic materials such as Acrylic fabrics are the best choice for outdoor cushions. Many will also choose to use acrylic fabric for their interior cushion as well owing to their durability and stain resistance. Depending on the use, cotton and polyester fabrics may also be used effectively for indoor bench cushions.

Another option available through some custom cushion dealers is that you may provide the material to them and have the bench pad constructed to your exact specifications. Having a custom cushion built by high-volume online retailers can often times result in substantial savings as compared to having the cushions made locally.

Other Custom Options

In addition to being able to specify the obvious attributes such as overall length, width, shape and thickness, there are other custom option available. You may also add cushion ties at selected corners, and the type of edge detail (knife edge or box edge). For additional detailing cording can be added to edges to further customize the look and feel of the cushion.

Because of the flexibility involved in being able to specify custom-sized cushions, cushions for many other uses can be ordered through the same custom cushion sources. For example, cushions of irregular shapes used for such things as bay windows pet beds and swings can be economically ordered.

If your primary reason is to purchase chair pads or cushions is for added comfort, first look at both the pad fill and pad thickness.  If presently your chairs have no pads, but you find the seating to be a tad low, then you can invest in thicker cushions for added comfort as well as to provide a more optimum seat height.  The two primary fill materials used are foam and loose fill.  The most common thickness is 2 inches, though thicker cushions are available for additional comfort and height.

Of course another major consideration in considering kitchen chair cushions is the cover material.  Since these cushions will most likely see daily use, a washable fabric is recommended.  Among the more popular fabrics are cotton, polyester, denim, and other synthetic fabrics including micro suede.  Polyester fabric is probably the easiest to clean and offers much in the way of durability, while many prefer the natural fabrics such as denim and cotton.  Of course it goes without saying, particularly if kids will be sitting on them, is to make sure that either the entire cushion is washable or that the cover is removable and washable.  Another popular feature in many cushions is reversibility.  This simply means that if you tire of one side your can turn them over and present an entirely different look.

While it is helpful to purchase a cushion that is the general size and shape as your chair bottom, an exact fit is not necessary.  What is more important is to make sure the appearance e and comfort of the cushions is to your liking.  In reality most premade cushion will fit a variety of chairs.  Some cushions do come with corner ties that do help to keep the pads in place, but may not be consistent with a sleek modern-looking kitchen.  While you are purchasing kitchen chair cushions you may also want to consider buying bench seat cushions any benches in your kitchen.  With eat-on kitchen islands now becoming more popular, purchasing stool cushions with the same design can help to unify your space.

Kitchen chair cushions are one of the few low cost items that will add both style and utility.  Not only do they add color and style to your kitchen décor but also provide additional comfort to your kitchen seating. You may also be interested
