First things first! The folding camp chairs were really inexpensive (under $10 new), but not exactly comfortable after a while. We both have bad backs, and it had gotten so J. didn't like to spend long out there because it HURT.
We shopped endlessly to try to find comfortable padded folding chairs that were also short enough, since I am, looking at hundreds of chairs online (used to have some, but they got away...) We looked at non-folding overstuffed chairs in a variety of thrift stores, but we really need the versatility and the option of chairs we can fold away, in the small space.
Soooo...here's my solution! I tied chair seat cushions to the back to pad that area, and put a nice big soft bed pillow in the seat...that helps a lot with the place where the diagonal legs wanted to dig into my fanny!
Ugly as can be, of course, but a nice down throw we've had for years covers one of them, and a polar-fleece throw the other one. Now they look almost like Real Chairs, and they are a LOT more comfortable!

The other project today was the new page on the tabs at top, dealing with and planning for small spaces! Click the link to see what we've done so far--I'll be adding to it as I think of things, I'm sure...
