Interior Decorating With Slipcovers

Interior decorating is forever evolving

Interior decorating is forever evolving. You may have set your mind to one look and think that you'll love it forever and then find it two, three years' time (if even) that you're sick of it already. That's because as time passes our tastes change, cultural trends change, and home design changes. These things affect the way we view our humble abode and make us desire a change. When you have furniture, though, that can make it difficult, especially if that furniture is very specific to the current theme. But the upside is that furniture slipcovers are available to fit anything you could possibly own so you can feel free to change the room however your heart desires.

Slipcovers are more than just cosmetic fixes for stains, tears, and other imperfections. They are a way to incorporate variety into the room that you once loved and now feel lukewarm about. The goal is the aesthetically change the design without changing the actual furniture. You can choose slipcovers from a barrage of patterns, textures, and fits. Both loose and tight fitting covers are sold, for a casual look or more professional fit.

Consider the other textiles in the room and what will work for your furniture. Cotton and cotton blends fit furniture more comfortably than heavy weighted materials, but sometimes denim or corduroy would look nicer with the other fabrics in the new room design scheme. You may also want to consider if the fabric you choose for your cushion covers should or should not be textured. Twill, damask and other similar fabrics lend to the originality of the room and they're more interesting to the touch. They also resist wrinkles better than smooth textures.

You should consider the design too, from the colors present in the cover to the pattern. Plaid works fantastically with country homes and Northern European getaway designs. Navy, maroon, and gold stripes look beautiful in a naval or Americana themed home. And floral patterns add the perfect elegant and feminine touch to a living room or outdoor social setting like the patio. The trick is to blend your old furniture with the most intriguing and dynamic features present in the redesign. By sticking with themes it makes it easier to select a slipcover and far less stressful for you to command the attention you seek with this room redo.

Using covers for your furniture is one way to freshen up and liven an old, boring atmosphere in the home.
