Your favorite spot could not be more comfortable for bingeing your way out of world events for a bit. But whatever color it used<\/em> to be is a vague memory. And the throw blankets you\u2019ve been using to cover the wear \u2014 and a stain or three \u2014 are starting to make it look more like a pile of laundry. Remember when it was a place to sit and welcome visitors?<\/p>\n\n\n\n We feel you. But, with everything going on, now probably doesn\u2019t feel like the most opportune moment to spend money on new furniture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Fear not! We have the next best thing: custom slipcovers.<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s as simple as you\u2019d imagine. Google it, and you\u2019ll learn that it\u2019s literally, \u201ca removable fitted cloth cover for a chair or sofa.\u201d\u00a0 It\u2019s essentially a new outfit for a piece of furniture! Just like any outfit, it can look comfy or polished, depending on what you\u2019d prefer. And depending on how professional the fit is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Traditionally, people use slipcovers to refresh existing furniture that\u2019s showing a bit of wear. Or people use slipcovers as an affordable alternative to replacing pieces. It\u2019s an easy way to change the look and feel of a room that\u2019s showing a bit of wear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Maybe you\u2019ve recently moved, and your furniture was coordinated with the colors and layout of your old home. Or maybe you\u2019re looking around and realizing your home isn\u2019t just last year’s<\/em> color style \u2014\u00a0 but last century\u2019s. Not cute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Well, that\u2019s nothing a bucket of paint and a slipcover can\u2019t fix!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Take a good look around. What could feel and look amazing with a little sprucing up? Maybe it\u2019s a pair of chairs and a sofa. You can use a slipcover on virtually any sofa or lounge chair. In recent years, it\u2019s even become a trend to use a slipcover on dining chairs to update a dining room. Slipcovers are a very versatile fix!<\/p>\n\n\n\n The key is to focus on quality pieces.<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n Not that you can\u2019t cover others. But if you focus on pieces that are solidly constructed and still comfortable with \u201cmiles\u201d ahead of them, you\u2019ll get the best return on your slipcover investment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n So, give your chair or sofa a wiggle. Is it solid or leaning? Have a seat \u2014 comfortable, or are springs coming through? If it\u2019s still sturdy and comfy, you\u2019re ready to begin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now that you\u2019ve picked your furniture, let\u2019s explore the right fabric. We have one or two suggestions. Just kidding, more like 20,000! But we\u2019ll get to that later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here\u2019s your chance for a do-over!<\/em> Your chance to change up the color, bring in a pattern, or take a low-risk gamble on something bold and edgy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n First, what are your priorities for this space? How do you use these pieces? Be realistic for right now and what you see for future use. Your goals or their functionality may have changed since your initial purchase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some questions to consider: Is this a heavy-traffic area, or a formal, lightly-used space? Will your canine or feline family members use this as their favorite bed AND toy? Is this your kid zone? <\/p>\n\n\n\n You get the idea. If you were buying new furniture, what questions would you ask? Sort through the details and let yourself dream about a fresh look. And remember, these choices will cost you a fraction of the price! Hooray!!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n A strong recommendation, from experience, is to pick a medium to heavy-weight fabric. For most projects, that\u2019s the best choice for slipcovers. Since it\u2019s going over existing fabric and seams, a heavier-duty fabric has cleaner lines and less wrinkling. This adds to the feeling of a total refresh for your furniture and your space!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n By now, we hope you\u2019re starting to get excited about the possibility of revitalizing your home or office with this easy fix.
