Stylish slipcovers are perhaps the most versatile
tools of home decoration that have all sorts of use and do not cost you
a fortune. The slipcovers sewed, embroidered or even knitted or
crocheted by our grandmas are loved by us for their sentimental value
and the love and workmanship that went into it but slipcovers today are
much more than that and are important part of home furnishing. They add
a dramatic touch to our homes and can become quite a fashion statement,
if handled carefully. With a range of colors and patterns to choose
from, slipcovers look quite attractive and very comfortable too. They
are available in easy-to-care fabrics. Slipcovers are designed in the
most sought after, easy care fabrics to accommodate a wide range of
seating styles. To understand how "you", the consumer can
benefit from the advantages of slipcovers in your home today, it is
necessary to examine the "where", "what" and "whys"
of this very versatile product.
Slipcovers are not just for sofas! Companies exist today that produce
ready made slipcovers for several forms of popular seating. Loveseats,
club chairs and ottomans, wing chairs, recliners and dining chairs all
can benefit from the addition of a fashionable slipcover. Rather than
spending a substantial financial investment for new seating,
reupholstering or custom slipcovers; ready made slipcovers offer
consumers an affordable solution for a quick and stylish furnishing
cover up.
Consider a fashionable slipcover for any number of reasons. Ideal for
growing families with young children and pets, slipcovers protect
favored furnishings from soiling and everyday wear and tear. With an
increasing number of families owning vacation homes, slipcovers offer
the option of shopping consignment stores, flea markets and yard sales
with the assurance that it is possible to slipcover second hand
furnishings and coordinate with existing décor, regardless of
established fabrics, patterns and colors. A rainbow of today's most
preferred colors makes seasonal decorating throughout your home a snap
with slipcovers!
Spring 2001 sports an abundance of subdued and muted neutrals such as
soft khakis, faint terracotta's, and pale taupes. Crisp whites with navy
trim can offer the essence of a nautical theme for the coastal home as
well as the upcoming Summer months.
Or, contribute to a particular style of décor such as
Southwestern, Country, Traditional, Shabby Chic, or Victorian with
appropriate slipcover fabrications and design motifs. Slipcovers
featuring lush fuchsia and pink hues are wonderfully romantic in a
Victorian styled home. Florals consisting of washed colorations on pale
backgrounds feature a lovely choice for a Shabby Chic styled space. Look
for slipcovers in the most sought after fabrications such as sturdy
denims, soft faux suedes, warm chenilles, and classic cottons.
Consider incorporating the advantages that slipcovers offer throughout
your home. Do not overlook practical opportunities to incorporate the
durability, comfort and character that slipcovers provide in unexpected
spaces! For instance, explore the possibility of slipcovering a "hand
me down" chair for your sunroom, formal chairs in the dining room,
a set of mis-matched chairs in the kitchen, a well loved club chair and
ottoman in the family room, a soiled recliner in the basement or a
treasured chaise in the master bedroom suite.
