Find beautiful solutions for
outdated or worn furnishings from a selection of quality
furniture slip covers. Both ready made and custom slip covers
are available by shopping online. There are a ton of variations
in style of fabric, type of fit, and overall design.
Find what you want in popular materials such as chenille, faux
suede and denim. A tailored jacquard or silk slipcover is more
than a practical alternative to expensive new couch sets.
Designer slipcovers include floral, plaid and geometric designs
in different colors and textures. Flannel, linen and 100% cotton
are durable choices, and velvet adds a special touch.
Different shapes and sizes of slipcover designs can be ordered
to fit sectional couches, recliners and loveseats as well as
standard size couches and sofas. Some furniture pieces have
unique measurements that require customized patterns.
Other furnishings that can be covered include futons, chaises
and ottomans. Recover an old oversized armchair or buy patterned
tapestry cushions for a wicker couch. Wingback and parsons
chairs can also be slipcovered to hide soiled upholstery.
For a big event like Thanksgiving, Christmas or another special
holiday event, you can cover your dining chairs for that extra
special touch. If there is a a large get together such as a
wedding, family reunion or bar mitzvah, folding chairs and their
slipcovers can be rented.
Slipcovers for couches can be sewn in a single, one piece
design. Another possibility is a form fitting stretch slip cover
that clings to furniture contours for a tight, close fit. Some
designs come with decorative ties that hold the cover from
shifting. A semi-fitted, loosely constructed slip cover with a
straight skirt is yet another choice.
Slipcovers may be matched with pillows, throws and window
treatments for a room that
is fully coordinated. Sometimes the pillows or curtains come
ready made, sometimes you can buy extra fabric to sew them
yourself.
Order prewashed, preshrunk material that is machine washable.
Stain repellent technology will keep couch slipcovers looking
fabulous after many washings.
Another option for slipcovering older sofas is a convenient
throw or afghan. These throws or blankets are not form fitting
and will need to be readjusted fairly regularly if they are used
to cover the whole sofa.
If used as an accent, a throw blanket can add a splash of bright
color or the softness of sheepskin. For sports enthusiasts there
are football or hockey team logos. Golf, southwestern patterns
and horses are other popular themes.
Create a contemporary room with hardly any expense. For advice,
contact the customer service department of online stores. Shop

brand name slip cover manufacturers offer warranties on their
products as well as customer satisfaction guarantees. |
