I think that I am going to try to make a pad by myself. I am not much of a seamstress, but I don't think that it will be too hard... plus, maybe it will encourage me to sew bigger and more complicated things!<br /><br />EmmaMamaBirdEmmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08953172914077823820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-6259711714044660212007-01-18T13:41:00.000-05:002007-01-18T13:41:00.000-05:00Do you sew?

For a no-sew option, take a piece of plywood or super-stiff cardboard, cut to size, cut some cushioning to fit, then cut the fabric a couple of inches bigger, stretch over the cushioning and board, and staple on the bottom. Trim and voila!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-72572745668823310052007-01-18T11:12:00.000-05:002007-01-18T11:12:00.000-05:00Thanks, Emma.

If I'm ever a millionaire, though, I'm getting the all wood chair! ;-)Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06397886444398204729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-82459711810240466052007-01-18T09:35:00.000-05:002007-01-18T09:35:00.000-05:00Thanks for the tip on Penny's, Julie...

The closest thing to a nice wooden highchair we located is one by Eddie Bauer, and it <b>still</b> had plastic parts (tray).Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06397886444398204729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-61281560189706673302007-01-18T09:12:00.000-05:002007-01-18T09:12:00.000-05:00Have you tried the Penney's catalog?

You could always add a bit more character on your own.....<br />JulieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
