Home Style Decorating

Slipcovers offer a room instant makeover minus the mess that comes with paints, paintbrushes or wallpapers. Just order slipcovers in your favorite fabric or color to inject some new life into your furniture and your room. Today there are more choices than ever before in ready-made slipcovers. They come in a wide variety of fabrics that is also available in many colors and patterns. You will be sure to find the one that is just right for your taste.

There are many reasons why you need slipcovers. The following are just a few of them:

• Your upholstery is out of date, needs repair, or is the wrong color.
• You need it covered now - before a special occasion or the holidays.
• You want to protect furniture you love from kids and pets.
• You have changed your style and need an inexpensive transformation.
• You love the idea of redecorating for seasonal changes.
• You received costly estimates for reupholstering but prefer a less expensive alternative.
• You don’t have the time to figure out how to sew your own covers.
• You are in a transition period and can’t afford to buy all new furniture.
• You can’t stand looking at that old furniture another day.
• You like the convenience of laundering slipcovers at home.

Many slipcovers are made with fabrics that bare manufactured with wider widths for a smoother overall look with fewer seams. Accent pillows are also available to match your slipcovers. If you will be using a light-colored slipcover with dark colored upholstery, you can use heavier weight fabrics such as matelasse or use a white sheet between the furniture and the slipcover. You can slipcover a sectional sofa if it separates into appropriately sized widths. To avoid finger injury, you can use a wooden spoon or a tucking tool when tucking a cover into corners of your furniture.

Slipcovers today are made in some truly beautiful colors and patterns.  You will find kid-friendly cotton denims, sturdy ducks, beautiful quilted matelasses, plush chenilles, tailored tweeds, soft suedes, pleasing jacquards, garden florals, stripes and more. When choosing slipcovers, build on the elements, colors and styles of the room that the furniture is located. Consider solid colors, textures or tone-on-tone striped slipcovers if you have a patterned rug or busy wallpaper. Use fabrics with texture for added interest. Chenilles and matelasses offer lots of light-catching contours with great personality. If everything in your room is plain like the walls, floors and window treatments, consider using a pattern or floral for the slipcovers. Choose slipcovers with ruffled skirts in rooms that are romantic or casual in feel.  Use the straight style skirting in more contemporary settings. Use slipcovers to lighten or darken your regular furniture for seasonal changes.  For example, if your furniture is all beige, then you might choose navy chenille slipcovers for fall and winter.  If your living room loveseats are dark velvet, then lighten them with pretty floral slipcovers for spring and summer.  This is the easy way to redecorate!
