A Chair Cover Dresses Up A Boring Chair

With Christmas right around the corner, I was trying to figure out what to blog about. I've had customers coming in and requesting to rent our samsonite chairs, but they want to blend the chair in with the rest of their furniture. What best way to do so is with a chair cover, it's a good way to dress up any party or event. You can cover a church hall metal folding chair to hotel banquet chair.

When thinking about renting a chair cover, many factors come into play, especially for hotel chairs. Hotel chairs come in all different sizes and forms. You can have your standard banquet chair that is rounded on the top or you can have a tall narrow banquet chair that is more boxy on the top. There are also hotel chairs that are larger, for example a cathedral chair. Hotel chair covers come in Polyester and you have the colors white, ivory, black, pink, red, navy, hunter, burgundy and royal blue to choose from. You can also rent them in Poly Satin and Spandex. They will vary in color and all covers are fitted around the chair.

Our folding chair covers fit samsonite chairs, wooded chairs and metal folding chairs. The covers come in polyester and you have the same selection of colors to pick from as the hotel chair covers. The folding chair covers are not fitted to the chair, but instead it hangs nicely around the chair.

Our chair covers do not come with sash's, but it is always a nice added touch. You can rent sash's in Polyester, Iridescent Crush, Tissue Lame, Burlap, Poly Satin, Organza and Prints. Sash's come in a rainbow of colors. If you have any questions about the color, you can check out our swatch colors on our website or you can come into our store and check out our book of swatches.

Three glasses for wine please..

Many of our customers come to us for glassware and ask "How many do I need?". A question Allison and I dread, because honestly, we don't know. I always end up going to Google and reading their recommendations. There are two options that come up most: One glass per person per hour and 3-4 glasses per person for the whole event. I personally think 3 glasses per person at the bar and that it never hurts to have a few sleeves of acrylic glasses to have as a back up.
The next thing people are unsure of it what style of glass to get. I would say if you are serving beer and wine only, wine glasses and some all purpose glasses would be fine. The all purpose will work fine for soda and beer. If the bar will be serving a full selection of wine, beer, and mixed drinks, I would go with wine glasses, rocks or high ball, and all purpose. If a signature drink is on the menu, make it stand out with a flute, martini, or stemless martini. The unusual shape and a subtle garnish will give it the "wow" factor.

Love Is Sweet

This past summer I had a wonderful bride come into our office to plan her rentals with us and during our meeting she told me that she was having a "Candy Bar" during her reception. Before that meeting I had never really heard of people having "Candy Bar's," but since then I've been hearing and seeing them pop up everywhere. What a fabulous idea! It's great if you have children at your event or even for us adults to revisit our past and indulge in some of our favorite past time favorites. You can get very creative with putting your own personal touch to it and making it fun. I love seeing all the different jars, containers, scoops and tongs people come up with. I've seen candies matched to the colors of an event to seeing a rainbow of colors. You can also tie bows to labeling the jars with the name of the candy. All in all it's a wonderful idea that can satify anyones sweet tooth!

It's Equilateral..

After a long wait, we are proud to finally say we have 12" Triangular plates. They are a very versatile plate for desserts, salads, and entree's. A great way to look at dinner from a different angle..
