Chair covers are often ironed to achieve a crisp and neat appearance. This is especially important for formal events like weddings or corporate functions where every detail matters. Ironing chair covers helps to remove any wrinkles or creases that may have formed during storage or transportation, ensuring they look their best when placed on the chairs. It's advisable to use a low heat setting and iron the covers inside out to prevent any potential damage. However, always check the care label first as some materials may not be suitable for ironing.
