AbigailGrace Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Possibly the coolest way to sit and chill on a summers day chicken watching.. Just finished making this Union Jack Deck Chair and Crown cushion for my Textiles GCSE.. I just wanted to see how others chill with there chickens really.. So how do you relax with your feathered friends? I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Wow! That is brilliant. You are very talented. I chill by sitting on their rotten old tyre, trying to make sure that my bum doesn't get covered in poop. Your method is far more stylish.

A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I refuse to believe that is homemade. I think you bought it from a posh shop. IT'S AMAZING! There is definitely a market for those if you wanted to make some money. VERY impressive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlo Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 How fab is that??? Well done I have a storage bench in the coop and have to ensure it is relatively poop free before I park myself on it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbigailGrace Posted April 19, 2010 Author Share Posted April 19, 2010 Aww.. Thankyou very much.. Yes, I spent alot of time on it.. I really like the comfort you get from a deck chair plus you can simply fold it back up so no chicken poo, unless they decide to take a pew on my seat! I have another frame so i suppose i could do another canvas for it.. What we thinking this time..? Just floral.. Or a huge chicken? Hehehe.. I may do it actually.. If anyone is interested in doing what i did.. I simply bought some canvas from my local fabric shop.. Most places carry it.. Then sew onto a white cotton put the two together, hem it all.. Then just create a loop for the rail to hold it on the frame. The frame was from Tesco it had a canvas on it.. I think it was £20 two for £35 so we got two on the intension of doing another one.. So i better get my sewing machine back out.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daphne Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I also sit in a deckchair - yellow and white stripes - luckily for me in a sun trap corner as the birds have decided under my blackcurrant bush is the dustbath of choice this week; but its nothing like as stylish as yours. You've managed to combine design and style - very well done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seagazer Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Thats so good, well done. I sit on a stool in the WIR, its usually got poop on it. One of my new girls likes to come and join me on it, she's such a sweetie. If I'm outside the run then I have a plain grey fold up chair, very boring looking after yours.

AbigailGrace Posted April 21, 2010 Author Share Posted April 21, 2010 Wow and that's for GCSE? Amazing. It looks very London Cushion Company . . . very posh. Yes GCSE, I enjoy it but the exam is possibly the worst.. 2 and a half hours.. But i can't really complain about that as my art exam was 10 hours.. I had never heard of the London Cushion Company.. They have some lovely things.. I will be checking that out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicken bark Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Great deckchair. I don't have the patience for making things like that (or the skill probably ) I usually just end up sitting on the floor in all the chicken poo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
