Covers For Patio Furniture

I have just posted an ad on our local community e-bulletin board looking for someone who might be able to sew covers for patio furniture. I hope to get some information about the costs and time lines for such a product. Given that decent and reasonably priced patio furniture covers are so difficult to find I might even try to market some covers to some of the outdoor furniture shops in my city.

I have 4 chairs and a rectangular table. However, if I was to market these covers I would need more options. Initially, I would try to get quotes for three specific sets of covers of patio furniture, namely 4 chairs and round table, 4 chairs and square table, and 4 chairs and rectangular table. It might also be nice to offer some sort of matching BBQ cover.

Since beginning my search for patio furniture covers and starting this blog, I have asked most of my friends for their opinions and assistance. About 50% said they had no interest in such covers and thought they would simply add to backyard or shed clutter. The other half really liked the idea of customized covers and have provided a lot of helpful suggestions for my search. I have also asked them what they thought were important features to look for and they have been very helpful in that regard. The most common comments were the need for the covers to be washable, ease of storage, and ease of taking the covers off and putting the covers on.

It is now the middle of May. I am determined to have the perfect covers for patio furniture by the end of this summer. Either I'm going to find a store that sells such covers or I am going to have some made. Wish me luck.
