Sofa Covers - Transform the Look of a Living Room
Posted: Sep 08, 2015
We often have guests who visit our home for some or the other reason. And, everytime they look for a proper place to sit. In a living room - a carpet, a sofa set, and a diwan is something that’s needed to impart the look of our home as well as comfort. And, giving a new look to the seating area kept running in our mind always. Changing the décor every now and then sounded like a daunting task and might burn a big hole in our pockets. Then we thought that changing sofa and chair covers could be one of the easiest ways to transform our seating area and in fact, the whole room. In today’s world, these slipcovers are functional as well as fashionable. So we decided to buy a cover that’s not only functional, but also economical, versatile, easy to use, and something that’s compatible with our décor’s color scheme.
Since slipcovers come in many sizes, we thought of buying one that perfectly fitted our sofas. We thought that an approximate measurement will look good for a laid-back feel. Then we thought who will fuss over the exact measurements, lets go for loose-fit covers and yet achieve the same effect. Slip covers also come in a variety of attractive patterns which left us spoil for choice. Then a close friend of our family suggested that whether we prefer a modern or a traditional look, slipcovers can go well with any décor style.
When we thought of buying, we were perplexed about one choosing from a variety of colors, designs, sizes and materials. And, these were also a few factors that will help us find that perfect slipcover to suit our décor style, no matter how often we changed it. We thought of going for a fabric that defines the style and something that’s tough and firm so that we don’t have to think about buying a new one. So we started looking for specific fabrics, we came across cotton, generic, jacquard, nylon, polycotton, polyester, silk and velvet. Though all the fabrics were designed keeping in mind the durability and ease of care, we still decided to buy cotton ones, because these covers were not only easily to wash and maintain, but also very skin-friendly. Most of these covers are also machine washable.
After considering all the factors, we decided about which one we were going to buy. But to our surprise, we had our guests visiting our home the next day. So we’ll decided that the best way to buy sofa covers could be online. Online shopping sites not only helped save our time, but also reduced the hassle of going to every store. They also had different brands such as SHC, Balaji, House Attire, Handloom Trendz, Furnishing Kingdom, JBG Home Store, Ridhima Creations, Fabrique, Optimistic Home Furnishing and so many other brands to choose from. Sitting in the comfort of our home, we ordered the sofa covers online we wanted and got it delivered to our doorstep.
