Loveseat Slipcovers, Loveseat Throws

Remember those long afternoons at Grandma's house with her uncomfortable plastic-wrapped furniture? Sure, her loveseat was in perfect condition for 25 years, but it made disturbing noises every time you moved on it. Now that you have your own loveseat, (not to mention kids and a dog) you don't have to go to such odd extremes to extend the life of your furniture. Slipcovers and throws do the same work without the nail-on-a-chalkboard sound effects.

Slipcovers and throws are extremely fashionable and efficient. Many are made from inexpensive, solid-colored cottons. This means that if company spills red wine on your loveseat, you won't have to break the bank to replace the cover. Also, a wide array of brilliant solid colors ensures there is a cover to match any room and it makes for easy switches for redecoration. There are also more expensive covers made of chenille, suede, or any other number of materials to fit any taste.

Caring for most loveseat throws and covers is a simple process. Those made of 100% cotton can be cared for like bed linens, meaning that they are machine-washable. Covers and throws made from more exotic materials can often be treated with a mixture of club soda and mild detergent (but check the manufacturers details to be certain of care instructions).

For those loveseats in high-traffic areas of the home, a patterned cover is an ideal way to hide little stains. The more intricate the design, the more stains become obscure and blend into the pattern. So whether you choose through pattern or easily-washed solids, throws and slipcovers are the ideal way to add years onto the life of your loveseat.
