My husband and I recently bought a new car with a nice black interior. REALLY not pre-schooler friendly! We decided we needed to pick up seat back protectors to save our upholstery from our daughter's dirty little feet. I checked out the typical baby box stores and picked up a super generic clear plastic seat back protector. My imagination immediately started to run wild. I would line the protectors with a fun and interesting fabric! When I got home I popped open my laptop and started searching the internet for the perfect print. I found a fabric I loved and ordered enough to do two seat back protectors.
When the fabric arrived I began dissecting the protectors I purchased at the big box store and harvested them for parts. Below you will see what I ended up with. I was able to customize the protectors and give my little one something pretty to look at. I also made modifications to improve the design.
I had no intention of selling these but when I posted a picture of the finished product on my instagram and Facebook accounts there was a resounding theme to the comments. I should make them for sale! I was worried that people would not want to pay what I felt they were worth. Not everyone can appreciate the value of one's time, especially a stay at home mom of two. I posted to a local SWAP page asking people if they would be willing to pay the $60 I would charge and the answer surprised me. YES! And I received a number of orders from that post alone!
