CPVC PLANS: Basic Beach Chair (PDF)

Create this fun Basic Beach Chair from CPVC pipe, complete with reversible fabric chair seat!

Your favorite 18-inch friend will be ready to hit the beach with this quick and easy chair made from CPVC pipe!

Easy enough for beginners, this PDF pattern includes step-by-step photo instructions to help you build the CPVC chair frame using readily available tools. Included are helpful instructions for preparing the CPVC for construction, as well as advice and tips for those who want to glue and/or paint the chair frame before adding the seat.

Next you'll stitch up the easy, two-piece chair seat with the option of using two different fabrics so your chair will be reversible simply by sliding off the seat and turning it around.

A great first project for beginning sewists, as well as those new to working with tools or CPVC pipe!
