Ties Chair

To create this chair I removed the remaining broken wicker from an old chair and covered the seat with canvas. The canvas gave the seat part more strength so that when I stapled on the ties this would reduce the pressure on them. Initially I only covered the seat with ties but decided that the chair should be completely tied with ties. As this is part of my harlequin collection, I weaved the ties to create a harlequin pattern over the chair. The images show the front and back of my chair which is strong enough to still be functional.
