How to Make Corners When Replacing Vinyl on Kitchen Chairs

Replacing the vinyl on kitchen chairs can give new life to an old kitchen set. The process of stretching a square of vinyl over the chair seat and stapling it to the underside is relatively easy, but making the corners can be a bit confusing if you have never done it before. Once you make the first corner, however, you will be able to go on to make the remaining corners with confidence and ease.
