Turn a camp cot into an elegant patio daybed. Throw pillows in coordinating colors provide a soft surface to lean against. Depending on your sewing skills, you may wish to enlist an upholsterer for this project.
We covered a 4-inch-thick foam cushion with striped fabric and trimmed the edges with piping. The cot slipcover is sewn from more of the same fabric; box pleats at the corners are tied with ribbon. To complete the look, we applied two coats of light-green exterior paint to the frame.
This is an excellent idea. I have an old army cot I purchased at a yard sale. Have yet to use it for anything, and was just about to get rid of it.
Oh, so cute! How do you attach the covers on the camp stools.
I once wanted to recover a sling chair, but couldn't figure out how to attach the new canvas.
