Different Styles and Looks For Futon Covers

Or you would like to update the look of the room your futon is placed? It is much easier and less expensive to give your room new character and totally change the decor with futons than with traditional sofas. There are hundreds of futon mattress covers available in all kinds of prints, colors, decor styles, and fabrics. When you are in the market for a new sofa, you might keep in mind this convenient benefit for the next time you want to make a change.

There are several manufacturers who specialize in futon mattress covers. SIS Futon Covers is one of the biggest. The name SIS comes from the two sisters who started the company in 1985 in their basement. The company expanded fast, until today it is housed in a 76,000 square foot warehouse. They stock 500,000 yards of fabric, with over 400 fabric choices. The company, a trendsetter, keeps current on today's styles. They produce quality covers. A standard size futon mattress cover (twin, full, or queen) is made with zippers on three sides for easy placement on the mattress. Covers fit mattresses with a loft (thickness) of 6 to 8 inches. Other loft sizes can be specially ordered.

Leather is a very popular trend today, for it gives style and elegance to any room. Though most companies have stopped producing genuine leather futon mattress covers, they can be found or specially ordered. Beautiful and easy to care for faux (imitation) leathers are readily available. They have the feel, soft look, and distressed features of real leather and can be purchased for around $100 to $150 dollars compared to a much higher price of real leather.

You can find retailers who stock a good assortment of futon mattress covers and can also special order for you. They will usually have swatches of fabrics to help you envision what the end product will look like. You can also order from the Internet, often direct from the factory. You will need to give accurate measurements of your futon mattress. You want the cover to fit snugly or the mattress will tend to slide inside the cover. Any companies are now covering the shipping costs.

For much less money than buying a new sofa, you can change the personality of your room by simply buying a new cover for your futon mattress. You can buy additional coordinating fabric to complete the decor.
