Welcome to Deckchairstripes blog which we have been attempting to construct since our site originally went live, but never had time. Now we are running like a well oiled machine, it will hopefully become a little easier to add some ramblings and bring you lots of ideas and inspiration – we welcome comments and exchange of ideas too!
Our Edwardian Style Garden Sun Shelters are available in 9 different glorious stripes. If you are looking for a truly original present for a wedding or special birthday gift then look no further! Originally used as garden sun shelters or canopies from the early 1900′s until the 1950′s – these faithful sun shelter replicas with folding beechwood frames for easy storage take only seconds to put up, giving protection on three sides and enough room for a table & two chairs.
They look stunning in the garden (see all our sun shelters) and are suitable for fine summery weather, giving protection from the sun and light breezes, but are not suitable for windy or adverse weather conditions as the sun shelter canopy is not waterproof.
The sun shelter includes cotton ties to secure the canopy to the frame and a row of matching jaunty bobble fringing along the front edge.
There is also a matching showerproof drawstring bag for the folded sun shelter when not in use.

Last week, the Chester Performs team met up with Deckchairstripes for fun in the park trying out all our lovely products.
Our company will be providing bunting, deckchairs, cushions and props for this year’s Grosvenor Park Open Air Theatre.
This season’s open air theatre productions are all about colourful costumes, jousts and japes – Deckchairstripes are the perfect fit as we have been trading online at www.deckchairstripes.com for four years and are local to Chester.
Along with upmarket deckchairs, retro sun shelters, cushions and fabrics – in fact all sorts of festive summer dressing – we are already no slouch at helping out theatres. The company’s fabrics have been used by the Royal Shakespeare Company, National Theatre and Shakespeare’s Globe.
Our traditional hardwood deckchairs will provide seating for VIP ticket holders, whilst the brightly coloured cushions will be made available for picnic terrace seating. There will also be plenty of bunting and Deckchairstripes’ unique beach tents will prove to be the perfect shelter for the on-site box office.
