1M Views, woohoo! Nice continued work on the Chanel, Ross.
Thanks for the kind words! It's hard to turn lumps of coal like us into diamonds, but thanks to Ty, we can sparkle the way we were meant to!
@@ParacordPlanet 🤣
He is basically showing the traditional mexican chairs and pretending to be creative
@@tigrehermanobut I appreciate the tutorial I have these exact chairs that are falling apart and was looking for a way to keep the frame and add some color to my deck!
@@iamvandoza in Mexico they are designed with Huichol patterns, absolutely beautiful, very ornamental. Such wow. You can buy them cheap and they're made of metal frames (very thin) wrapped in cord, it is resistant and at the same time it kinda feels like you float a bit.
This is excellent instruction. I have those exact chairs and just thought today about how to do exactly what you have done. So thrilled to have found your video. Hats off to you. I absolutely cannot believe all the horrible disrespectful comments. Just focus on those of us that truly appreciate the time it took to show us this ❤
Neat tip here, try using a wide toothed comb to push the rows back, speeds up the process. Thank you for the video!
Thank you!
If you really want to upcycle, use a braided rag rope method, use old clothing pants and shirts (adult) work well or old sheets, any fabric will work. I would suggest to use different types of fabric, colors ect. tshirt rope could work but having tshirt with other more stiffer material would work better. can be very colorful chiar, and much cheaper than having to buy something.
Nice. You inspired me to replace and re-weave the webbing of some outdoor chairs I've had for many years. Thanks.
I tried this today and it turned out nicely. Thanks for showing the constrictor knot up close. Definitely had to do that one multiple times. The cost of para cord probably is more than a new chair, but it’s more about the fixing and diverting from landfill part. I used 200 ft for the warp and 100 ft for the weft. FYI.
Wow, sounds like you did a great job! 🙌
Excellent explanation on this! I have started a chair but a little confused on the side weaves 😟 This video definitely has given me the visual I need!!! Thank You so very much!! Now if I can just have a little of your confidence I know I can finish it tomorrow 👍
Excellent. Can match different frame with the color of cord. Ignore the salty trolls. That stripped material didn't have a chance in the solar flare generation. I've been looking for this solution for ages.
I have nearly identical chairs. After 15+years of Colorado weather, they need reweaving.
Thank you
Been looking for something like this for a few months now. So glad I found this video. Very helpful and seems easy enough to follow.
Me too! My neighbor reminded me to go on RUclips thank God
ruclips.net/video/o7M9h4VYNKI/видео.html
💯👌👌👌🌹
Just find 4 of them in the garbage and yes Iam gonna knitter them soon the metal frame is in perfect shape!!! Thanks for the tips!!!
Oh my it came out so beautiful, I have a patio set and the material got all discolored and broke I am sure it will take me four times as long as you did on every chair but it is worth it. Thank you very much
Here’s a tip to make your weaving a bit easier.
In your local Walmart or craft store yarn section, purchase the longest size “K/6.50mm” Tunisian or double ended crochet hook you can find.
Once you have your warp (teal cord) completed, use the hook to weave the weft (pink cord) through by the loop end. It will make the process much easier for you.
Thank you for sharing your craft with everyone.
Any crochet hook is useful for this.
@@olenkamoura
Sure. But Tunisian hooks are much longer. I have even made a few for myself & friends, using 1/4” & 1/2” 3 foot crafting dowel rods found in most craft stores. One of those would span the entire width of the chair.
@@Nacho-Mamma Thanks a lot for your explanation 👍👏❤️. 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Awesome tip! Thanks!
Exactly what I was going to suggest!!
It's not upcycling if you ruin a perfectly good chair for the frame, at best thats hacking it and at worst its stupidly wasteful. Paracord it AFTER a good long life, not before.
Also he’s absolutely terrible at explaining how to weave. You would be better off and learn more by watching hand textile weavers. And if you plan your weave and measure before hand like with certain textile weaves you won’t run out of cord and need to make the unnecessary knots (like in the corners where you could wrap it and hide it in on the underside of the frame in the pink wrap) which could cause weak points and un raveling. Just a thought though.
Oh my gosh, troll much? He is showing how you could reweave a chair. Everyone knows you wouldn't cut up a brand new chair.
WaStEFul. like a green, hippie muppet. what do you care?
@@lesliecaudill725 Leslie, not everybody making a critical comment is a "troll". please grow up.
@@moenibus ha ha. Excellent way to prove a point.
Just what I was looking for as I have 2 chairs that need refurbishing. Thanks, very helpful.
you can also use the yard stick to pull the cord back through the weave. just loop it through the hole on the end, or take a piece of scrap and tie a loop on the end and catch your contrast color with that.
Great. I have ideas now how to replace broken down wicker on my patio metal frame chairs. And match color of awnings! I’ll keep you posted T
GOOD JOB.
I am from India and I do it in different methods.
VERY NICE
This feels like a college paper.
Today I will be teaching you something I just learned.
He cord they used in this video cost $80 on Amazon. Not many people spend $80 on a lawn chair.
My brother has a chair like this and it's falling apart and I want to reweave it for him. Thank you kindly for this video
I got an old school sun chair I was hoping to fix and look!!!
I'm gonna go for it! Summer here I come! Thanks
I have probably done at least a hundred chairs. I still have the first one that is around 30 yrs old. I am always looking for old chairs at garage sales. The macrame store use to have heavyduty frames for sale.
Good step to step demonstration. Good workmanship, Thanks for the video, I have learned a new thing today, want to try in on my own hope it works.
Oh Dude, you had me lost on the knots. New chair for me. Great and informative video though.
Yup, that wasn't clear...
This is brilliant, so glad I found this before chucking my patio chairs! Roughly how long did it take to complete the chair? Thanks for the Vidio 😊
Y como se llama lo que ase la silla
Sweet I can’t wait to refurbish my patio chairs
😍was just thinking about redoing chairs? A wide toothed comb would be a good tool for pushing back.
Just what I needed, thanks!! 😊
Cool idea not sure I could do it but it is a fun way to make something look different
Nice! I would only repaint the frame in a matching colour to the chords... maybe white.
Good idea!
A tunisian crochet hook could help weaving. They are LONG crochet books. And you cannot get a large sized hook. The roundness would slide in tight spaces.
Good suggestion, thanks!
I thought you were silly to use 2 diff colors but it really looks awesome. Great thanks
I think he did that to show how it's done. The cords going across show up better in pink. But it looks good. Makes me wonder if you could do a plaid design with different colors of cord. More knots, I know. More time in the process, but the design would be worth it. I would like to try that.
Wow!! It looks great! You did a wonderful job.
Not familiar with working with this type of cord so I was wondering... When you cut the cord, does it tend to unravel? How do you stop that? Is the cord made of something you could singe with a flame to melt it a little to keep it from unravelling? I would like to try that on a chair I have of a different style (when it gets shabbier of course).
Paracord is a tube of nylon fabric over nylon threads, if you want it to "flatten out" you can pull the white threads out. Easily seal the cut end with heat, just don't catch it on fire!
Excelent !!! I loved it. Thanks and kisses from Brazil
Спасибо, Вы меня вдохновили починить мои садовые стулья!
Спасибо за просмотр. Мы рады, что это помогло!
Thank you for showing a very useful video. I happened to work on the same patio chair ,yet I simply had no idea how to start it out. Would it be possible to provide written methods along with pictures for each step of doing the whole project? Good luck on your next video 👍
If you use a long Tunisian Crochet hook, you can weave the hook through and then pull the paracord loop back through your "shed." Then beat back with a jumbo plastic comb that fits the paracord through the teeth.
You should use a caning needle or steamer from Peerless Rattan. This would make it so much easier.
How do you estimate how much cord is needed? I have a larger frame to work with...
Ficou linda! Para ficar maravilhosa eu pintaria as partes de ferro de branco.❤
Thank you so much for taking your time out to make this video was very informative and not learned a lot thank you
My wife found some lawn chairs for me. I started research my options. This is a great option. How many man hours did this take?
How crazy is that!? I just got three of those exact type chairs for $10! I can’t wait to try this method to reweave them!
nice. the plastic on these disintegrates, was going to put wooden slats on one
Nice vídeo aula maravilhosa ficou linda está cadeira show de bola parabéns irmão
I have the very same chair but what you have to do is way to much work for me... Still, YOU did a great job... 👍
I think it looks great and if you had not seen the cutting of the plastic seat you could have appreciated the artists "new" seat and been encouraged without judgment and misplaced opinion.
A long crochet hook would make it easier to pull your cord through
"But first, let's mess up a new chair"😆
Muy buena propuesta!!! Muy prolijo el trabajo,muy buena explicación, gracias, desde Argentina te saludamos
love it just like carpet weaving what about the arms would look nice too just like the back classy job
Interesting! I've noticed at the beach near me there's always tons of folding chairs thrown out. They usually have torn fabric, but are structurally fine. Is there a way to repair those at all similar to this? It seems like such a waste.
While I loved the idea to upcycle as opposed to replacing the cost turned me away. At this time 1000 ft of paracord for 1 chair = $100.00 a bit pricey. One could just buy 2 new chairs for less than $200.00 and save time. Thank you for your time, your chair looks great!
Thanks for the numbers, I was wondering how much this actually cost... I upcycle furniture to save money, no clue why someone would do this.
To reduce waste in the landfill
how much cord did it end up using? close to the 1,000?
Which is like 100$
I did this and used 300 ft total
Ohhh very nice, thank you bro.
Thank you so much for teaching.
hello. Love your tutorial and I a planning to try it. How much cord do we need though?
Did I miss where the diameter of the paracord was mentioned? I have 4 chairs that I need to repair. I think I can do it because I am pretty crafty.
thank you for the video, straight to the point and good tips 👌
🇹🇷🇹🇷harika oldu elinize sağlık🤲🤲💯
Think I have same chairs…good vid
Wouldn't using some type of puller to bring the cross cord through the weave be easier?
Put a hook on the end of yard stick an pull the string thru
Thank you! I will do this.
Thank you so much, I just got a very old chair round metal like the one you fixed. I do want to do it with rope? can I follow the pattern with different material? this is very awesome, I feel hopeful. I called a mid century store by my neighbor to ask for a restoration place and the store person told me that caning wicking or weaving is very expensive and that the chair was not of worth, I still want to do it!!! a bit on the boho side!?!?!?! Thanksagain!!
You could totally do this with rope! Keep in mind that if you use a natural fiber like cotton, it will degrade more quickly when left outside. The paracord that we use is about 1/8" wide, but you could use thicker or thinner depending on your preference. Natural fibers would look great in the weave used in rush chairs. Alternatively you could use something like a synthetic macramé cord.
What size of Paracord did you use?? There are so many to choose from: 1/4", 1/2", 5/8", 1/16". Please, let me know what is shown in your video? TY
Hello! This video features 550 Paracord, which is one of the most frequently used sizes among Paracord crafters.
Use a long crochet hook to pull though seat weave!
How many feet of paracord is that spool of turquoise please
How would you do a round back chair. I have one and it has been a nightmare!
Very nice job! Thank you for sharing!
ive got the same chair but in black.... tho i dont have the resources nor the rope talent to do the same thing to mine
Feliz Ano Novo com muita saúde e paz para todos nós 🌹🍻
Why not push cord back with the yard stick while still inside?
Not a bad idea. If anyone tries this, let us know how it goes!
Hello! I'm looking for plastic cord that is not too thick I want to make a tote bag. Could you please help me! The chair turned out beautifully!
Buna ! Ce fel de ața ai folosit și de unde se poate cumpara ? Merci
Thank you very much for this video.
this could be a really nice way to repair/ upgrade the seats in my dad's old aluminium canoe!
Definitely! I love that idea.
Hola, me gustó mucho. Lindo trabajo, hermoso resultado y combinación de colores.
Te felicito
Evelyn CastroTodo lo que el hizo fue CASI perfecto. Lo terrible fue el afan materialista cuando destruyo una silla nueva. Solo por demostracion. Eso me molesta y me da sentimientos encontrados. ya que en cada producto destruido. Le cuesta la vida a nuestro planeta. Esta destruccion de silla sin razon. Le costo minimo 10 o mas arboles a la tierra. Por el vinil destruido y por 1000 pies de cordon nuevo de paracord. Ahi. La inteligencia, hace reversa. Saludos
Queda como una silla Acapulco.
I can find it on the website
If you found it at the curb, why did you take it out of a shipping box...
Ummmmm....I want my lawyer.
@@ParacordPlanet
Do another chair, this time use a folding aluminum chair from the 70's...
Super ! Combien de corde faut t'il pour cette chaise ? 300 mètre ??
Merci beaucoup 😘
Hi, thank you for the video! I have the same chair. How many feets of paracord did you use for one chair? Thanks!
just curious how much of a cord is necessary for 1 chair? as I have 2 chairs and 1 bench to fix....and I don't know how much to buy!
Is there a video on doing a constrictor knot at the end? I am having a hard time figuring it out since you do not have the end to wrap it around?
I have a chair and was wondering if it could be done
Can’t add a photo
If you have Facebook, you can direct message the photo to @ParacordPlanet! If not, we can try to help you here in the comments. What kind of chair is it? 🪐
Thank you for the video What kind of thread were you using?
Good job,looks good but if each chair needs 1000ft of chord,it would almost cost the same to buy a new chair
Beautiful 🤩
Gracias niño 🥰
I have found 2 wicker chairs in my neighborhood that needs a lot of TLC. Can I use paracord for that too?
2:30 para o primeiro nó num vídeo de 12 min, impressionante
A cadeira é igual a minha,e eu quero fazer esse mesmo procedimento.
Pena que eu não entendo o que ele explica.Muito boa a explicação vizualmente
Great vid!
Is this possible with foldable chair
With four chairs to do I haven't got the patients. Too difficult!
Paracord es carísimo. Por que yo rompería mi silla de jardín y utilizaría una cuerda más cara que la silla misma.
bonjour
merci beaucoup pour cette excellente vidéo
où trouve t'on le fil s'il vous plaît
Brilliant!
