Using these chair covers is really easy. Just take one cover and drape it over your standard folding chair. It'll fit snugly right away, adding an elegant touch to your space. Remember, these covers are only for standard folding chairs, so don't try to use them on banquet - style chairs or the larger LIFETIME folding chairs. When it comes to cleaning, you can simply toss them in the washing machine. After that, use the tumble - dry function on low heat. This way, your chair covers will stay in great condition and can be reused for many events to come.
