Estimated Delivery 2-5 days Next Day Delivery Available Old vintage deck chairs are frequently too worn to be usable but they look lovely, so we have added two vintage-style deckchairs to our range with brand new frames and fabric. They come in a choice of 2 retro colourways and the deck chair frames are in the old fashioned ‘sling’ style. The deck chair fabric is a separate sling which is held in place by batons at either end. This is a traditional approach for deck chair slings and means the fabric can easily be taken off the frame for washing.
To remove the sling you simply push out the baton from one end of the sling and slide the sling out of the frame. The frame is made in Sweden from sustainable beech and includes a safety clip on the side of the frame to prevent the frame collapsing. It is slightly lighter than our traditional frame, so is easier to carry. The deckchair sling is 100% cotton and is machine washable. A choice of 2 colourways: Ecru – pale brown stripe Olive – pale green stripe The 2 remaining deckchair slings each have a small mark. For this reason they are being offered at half price. After the dyeing of the deck chair slings, the water that is used in the dyeing process is cleaned so that 94% of it can be reused. No contaminated water is discharged into the environment.

1 - 1x3 @ 48" long 4 - 1x2 @ 8 feet long 4 - 1/4" diameter bolts, 2" long with matching nuts 12 - washers to fit bolts Please read through the entire plan and all comments before beginning this project. It is also advisable to review the Getting Started Section. Take all necessary precautions to build safely and smartly. Work on a clean level surface, free of imperfections or debris. Always use straight boards. Check for square after each step. Always predrill holes before attaching with screws. Use glue with finish nails for a stronger hold. Wipe excess glue off bare wood for stained projects, as dried glue will not take stain. Be safe, have fun, and ask for help if you need it. 2 - 1x2 @ 48" 1 - 1x2 @ 24" 1 - 1x2 @ 25 1/2" 1 - 1x3 @ 24" 2 - 1x2 @ 44" 4 - 1x2 @ 23 3/4" 1 - 1x2 @ 22 1/4" 1 - 1x3 @ 22 1/4" 2 - 1x2 @ 15" 1 - 1/2" Diameter Wood Dowel @ 25 1/2" 2 - Outdoor Fabric Squares @ 54" x 22 3/4" 2 - 1/2" Diameter Wood Dowel @ 22"
Build the back frame very carefully as shown above. The main weight bearing joints are going to be where the fabric slings pull on the headers - so take great care to use glue, carefully predrill holes, avoid splitting your wood, and attach in place. There is a 3/8" gap between the header boards. Drill the holes as shown above for the bolts. Build the smaller sling as shown above, taking great care again to create strong joints for the headers. Once both frames are complete, line the frames up as shown above, and insert bolts, with washers on both sides of bolt, and one washer between the two wood frames to protect the finish on your wood frames. The chair should now swing open, but there will be nothing to keep the chair from staying open. See next step . . . Build the propup support as shown above. Attach with bolts and washers to the backrest frame, in the remaining predrilled bolt hole. Rest between seatframe slats. You will be able to move the prop up to adjust the angle of the chair.
Time to make that sling. Special thanks to Grace's Grandma for sewing these slings :) Cut fabric into two squares as directed in cut list. With right sides together, and using a 1/4” seam, stitch around entire rectangle, leaving a 5” opening on one long side. Clip corners and turn project inside out. Slip stitch opening closed. Finger press or iron project so edges are fully expanded and no edges are tucked inside. Using a larger stitch length, topstitch edges along both (long) sides only. A decorative stitch is optional. Finish edges by tucking thread into project. Fold bottom and top over 1 1/2” to create “sleeves.” Topstitch using same seam allowance as on the sides. Finish edges by tucking thread into project. By threading the slings through the chair headers, then threading the dowels in the "sleeves" you create a sling that is held in place sturdily, but is easy to remove to wash or change the look up.
