Choices range from country checks to floral designs, to contemporary prints or stripes. There's also a wide selection of hard wearing but attractive fabrics, in anything from denim to chenille, faux leather or suede. Many modern sofa and chair covers are fully machine washable, so it's not difficult to keep then clean.

For a fully coordinated look, you may want to consider covering all the seats in your room. In addition to wing chair and couch slipcovers, there are loads of recliner, loveseat and ottoman covers available. One advantage of slipcovers over re-upholstery is that they can be removed and replaced any time you fancy a new look. For instance, you could alter the appearance of your home according to the change of seasons. Just by altering the look of your seats it's possible to influence the mood of your entire room.

If you're looking for an affordable and quick way to revamp your home, slipcovers could be the answer.
