Snap these up in time for your Christmas soiree.
If you love entertaining (especially around Christmastime), then folding chairs are an excellent option to expand your seating without permanently sacrificing floor space. Once the party is over, simply fold the chairs away for easy, space-saving storage.
One of the main benefits is that a folding chair is designed to fold up and down as required, and can easily be moved when not in use. As well as working well for dinner parties, they are ideal for small breakfast nooks where space is limited.
If you're getting prepped for the holidays, you'll be pleased to know that folding chairs are generally pretty affordable (Homebase is selling one for just £12), and come in a range of styles to suit your interiors. You'll find folding metal chairs, classic wooden styles and a gorgeous rattan design for the style conscious. Some are sold individually, while others are available in packs of two and four.
