Slipcovers are a Sure Fit for summer decorating |
|
(ARA) - If you’re looking to brighten up your home this summer, you don’t have to go out and buy new furniture. Ready-made slipcovers can give you a whole new look at a fraction of the price.
According to Leah Weltman, public relations manager for Sure Fit, America’s leading manufacturer of ready-made slipcovers, they are an affordable, stylish decorating solution. “They are not only easy to apply, but they are easy to live with because they are all machine washable,” says Weltman. “The days of using a slipcover to cover an unsightly sofa have passed.”
Weltman says consumers now purchase slipcovers because they are a stylish solution to updating the look of a room. “Now you change with the trends, with the seasons, or even with your mood,” says Weltman.
If you’re looking for what’s hot this summer, then denim is it. The Indigo Denim slipcover line is available in a range of sizes and styles to suit your furniture and your tastes. Looking for a lighter look this summer? Try Brushed Twill available in wheat, stone, and sage. Interested in a little color? Try Cotton Duck with Contrast Trim available in red, indigo, natural, camel, linen and moss.
If you plan to do some entertaining this summer, Sure Fit’s dining room chair covers are available in a wide range of styles and patterns.
“The style of the ready-made slipcover is trending towards a more tailored look with contrast trim piping, kick-pleat skirts, round arms, and ties to finish the look,” says Weltman. This evolution is attributable to home trends, the Sure Fit Merchandise and Design Teams, and the desires of the consumer.
Company president, Bert Shlensky, says Sure Fit is extremely consumer-driven. “We listen to their needs and our product reflects that,” he said.
Sure Fit offers these tips on ready-made slipcovers:
*To avoid frustrated fingers while tucking, use a wooden spoon or spatula to help tuck the excess fabric.
*To remove wrinkles, toss the slipcover in the dryer with a damp rag and set it to tumble for about ten minutes.
*To keep the slipcover in place, roll up some old magazines or catalogs with a rubber band then push them into the crevices of the furniture until they are out of sight.
