We haven't started on the camper, as the shed to put it in isn't ready yet, but the seats are ready. LOL My aunt who closed her upholstery shop agreed to do them for me, so I rushed them to her before she changed her mind.  I love them! Here's one...  |

Very nice! Great way to start out too. Get stuff like this out of the way as soon as you can. Especially if you have a good deal on it.

Thanks y'all.
I'll take photos of the hinge side and back.
Vinyl came from Vogue Fabrics. Price was good but main reason was their samples had more depth to the glitter than the other samples I got that had flat appearance to the glitter. I'm very happy with them.

these pics show what I call the "wing" really well. Love the sparkle. You should tell your aunt she might have a little cottage industry sewing the covers for these benches....and then putting togther and instruction sheet on how to do the upholstering itself!
