Can Plastic Folding Chairs Look Elegant For My Event?

it really possible for plastic folding chairs to look elegant? This is a very common question among venue owners, event planners and brides alike. And the answer is, yes, it is! With the right accessories and coverings, coupled with the appropriate venue, folding chairs can be the perfect budget-friendly complement to your special event!

Here are some great options to consider when trying to find the perfect way to dress up your plastic folding chairs.

Tulle

Tulle has the incredible ability to dress up folding chairs. It is versatile and can be molded into a variety of shapes, providing you with a number of options. You can tie it into a bow, wrap it around the entire chair or even create a cascade effect down the back of the chair. Tulle is often used at weddings but is great for many other types of events as well. 

Sashes

Sashes made of fabrics other than tulle can be another excellent addition to your folding chairs. Sashes also provide you the opportunity to incorporate different textures and patterns into your chair decorations.

Burlap

For a more natural appearance, yet still adding pizzaz, burlap is a great option. It can be used in a number of different ways to take your folding chairs to the next level. Though versatile for a variety of events, burlap makes for beautiful holiday gathering decorations and rustic-chic themed events.

Chair Covers

Chair covers easily take a standard chair to the next level. There are no crafting abilities necessary with chair covers and they can be purchased or rented directly from your chair vendor.

Flowers

Flowers are a fabulous way to dress up your folding chairs. The options with florals are vast, as you can pick any variety, size, color, shape, and number of flowers that you wish.

Strings of Ribbon

Draping strings of ribbon down the back of a folding chair is a simple way to really add some life to the chair. This is a great option for birthday parties, bridal showers and baby showers as well as many other events.

Greenery

Different from flowers, greenery is a gorgeous addition to folding chairs. There is a lot of room to work with greenery and it can be melded into a variety of shapes.

Simple Bow

Sometimes you don’t need to go over-the-top to decorate your folding chairs; sometimes a simple bow does just the trick.

Signs

If your event is smaller or you have the means to make a large quantity of them, signs are a special and personalized way to dress up folding chairs. You don’t have to stick to names either – your signs can say anything that you want!

Seat Covers

For everyday use, or for an outside gathering, seat covers are a very versatile way to make your folding chairs look classy and perfectly match your color scheme and overall decor theme.

Plastic folding chairs are a great, budget friendly option for your event and they certainly have the ability to look elegant. As you can see, no matter your event or your style, there is a wide variety of options to choose from to dress up a plastic folding chair.
