A beautiful and stylish sofa in the living room will certainly attract the attention of others. Such an amazing piece of furniture will become one of the main characters in the interior. But upholstered furniture, as a rule, is the most frequently used element, so its upholstery quickly breaks down, acquiring a not very presentable appearance.
To maintain the original condition of the upholstery, you need to take care of this and purchase covers. They will protect the furniture from dirt and damage, and will also make the interior more attractive and comfortable, and the design more varied, as is clearly shown in the photo of sofa covers.
What are bedspreads and capes used for?
Bedspreads and blankets for sofas and beds have long been used in everyday life.
Convenience and a wide selection of materials allow housewives to choose different shades and models of products. Functions of bedspreads:
- protection of furniture upholstery from abrasion and damage;
- increasing the useful life of a furniture product;
- give the room a cozy atmosphere;
- restoring the appearance of old and worn furniture.
Thanks to the large selection of fabrics, capes can be changed to suit your mood. Changing the paintings updates and transforms the interior.
Aesthetics and beauty
In addition to the choice of cover material, the choice of its external data is considered equally important: color and pattern. After all, the right combinations of colors and patterns of different sizes can not only decorate the environment, but also make it provocative and overly catchy. To prevent this from happening, try to maintain a balance in your interior design and in your desires.
Monochrome fabrics in light colors will make the room lighter and more spacious, making it easier to relax and fully relax. And bright accessories in the form of pillows will help add some zest.
Rules for choosing a bedspread, blanket
The choice must be made carefully. A new purchase should be profitable and last as long as possible.
Requirements for the optimal selection of bedspreads for the sofa:
Elegant furnishings. In addition to its protective function, the blanket also plays an aesthetic role, emphasizing the features of the interior. When purchasing, you should look for the optimal combination of bedspread design with the style of the room.
Size and shape of blankets. Today, a wide variety of sofa shapes are known, and textile manufacturers are adapting as much as possible to the production of upholstered furniture. The blanket must cover all exposed areas of the upholstery in order to fully fulfill its primary function.
Be sure to consider the material the blanket is made from. The canvas should not absorb unpleasant odors and quickly lose its appearance and shape.
Practical care features: resistance to washing, shrinkage.
Be sure to focus on sofa models with armrests, additional accessories, and poufs.
Buyers pay great attention to the design and cost of the product. Excessively expensive models are completely impractical in homes with small children and many pets. And the use of different color combinations allows you to create a certain visual effect in the room.
Types of bedspreads
When choosing a bedspread, you should take into account the overall style and color scheme of the interior. The color, fabric, and upholstery style of the sofa should match the other fabrics in the room.
If the room has a set of sofa and armchairs, the ideal option would be to buy a bedspread for the entire set. If there are chairs in the room, it is better to think about covers or at least cushions for the seats. The seats of the chairs must also be protected from dirt and damage.
If the living room is connected to the office or there is a workplace where an office chair is used, this also needs to be arranged. Common fabrics will create a feeling of unity inside.
The bedspread can have different shapes:
- A simple rectangle of fabric draped over furniture.
- Simple upholstery that only slightly follows the contours of the furniture.
- A coating tailored to the exact dimensions of a specific piece of furniture. You can sew such a cover yourself; it will not only fit perfectly on a sofa or chair, but will also give them a neater look.
The hardest thing is to find a blanket for a corner sofa. The best option here would be to sew a single cover. But this option will require time and effort.
Variety of choices
Since sofas can be of various shapes (rectangular, corner, shell, etc.), this means that the covers must be of appropriate shapes and sizes. How to choose the right sofa cover? Nowadays this will not be difficult.
Sewing a cover can be ordered individually from specialists. At the same time, the master will take into account all the nuances and non-standard moments.
The cover clasp can be:
- with buttons. More suitable for a room in a natural style, using vegetation patterns, ornaments or button decor.
- with Velcro. A more modern option, also suitable for children.
- with a zipper. Practical, reliable and easy.
Most furniture companies produce universal models of covers for non-standard sofa configurations and parameters. It is better to purchase covers in the amount of 2 pieces, the second one in case the first one is in the wash.
Euro-covers are a fashionable, popular model today that fits tightly onto the sofa due to the elasticity of the material.
During use, they do not form folds, creases, bruises, do not form abrasions, do not lose color, are securely fixed and have a perfectly smooth surface.
Well-known furniture manufacturers provide a quality guarantee, confirmed by the necessary documents (certificates).
As an option, you can purchase beautiful covers exclusively for armrests; they will not only protect the upholstery of the most dirty places, but also decorate the products, especially in tandem with decorative elements: a satin bow, buttons or beautiful appliqué.
Color solution
Choosing the color of the bedspread is one of the most important moments, since with the help of a large spot of color you can transform or ruin the interior.
There are several principles for choosing a bedspread for the living room:
- Matches the main color in the interior. In this case, the bedspread can be a tone darker than the main color or a tone lighter. But it should be lighter than the floor covering and properly structure the space.
- Curtain color. In this case, the tone of the bedspread should match the color of the curtains, and the texture should be different. You should not make these products from the same fabric, otherwise it will look as if someone threw curtains on the sofa or hung a blanket on the window.
- Unlike the color of the walls, curtains or the main tone of the room. Contrast is appropriate if the primary colors are neutral - gray, white or brown and occupy large areas. The bedspread can be in bright colors: red, electric, tiffany, pistachio. It should be noted that there can be 1-2 bright accents in the room, no more. Therefore, the center of the composition here will be a bright veil.
You can choose several bedspreads of different colors, thanks to which you can change not only the interior, but also its mood. And this will definitely please the family.
Color is as important as material. Different shades give completely different effects. For example:
- white. A white blanket on the sofa visually expands the room and attracts attention. This is a neutral color, but still interesting and even bright in its own way, especially if you add decor. Like all light colors, it gets dirty quickly and easily;
- blue. The delicate winter color will fit perfectly into an interior with the same cold tones. Particularly appropriate in a small children's room: does not irritate, does not attract attention, refreshes;
- red. It can be of different shades and depending on the tone it gives a different effect. Dark looks good in a Gothic interior, bright - on a sofa somewhere in a modern kitchen;
- green. Suitable for bedspread in the bedroom. Calm, promotes sleep. The warm and bright shade can be used in other rooms;
- brown. Chocolate - for a living room in a classic style, close to orange - for a bedroom in a modern style. The spots on it are less noticeable;
- black. The complete opposite of milky white: it visually makes the room smaller, stains are not visible on it, fits well into modern interiors, giving them dynamism and even a little darkness.
Lilac, purple, caramel, lilac, light green, blue, pink - there is a suitable frame for every shade. Either contrasting or the same tone. The main thing is to combine colors so that they do not look alien.
To achieve the best effect, you can use special artists' palettes that help you decide on the combination of colors.
The benefits of covers
In the recent past, sofa decks, furniture capes or blankets remained, which needed to be looked after, just like upholstery materials. They are practical, but not durable.
Cases are more advanced in this regard:
They are resistant to various impacts and damage: abrasions, scratches, dust, dirt, children's art.
Thanks to modern innovations, textiles are not afraid of the claws and teeth of pets. And perfectly preserved natural upholstery can be shown to guests on a holiday.
They will successfully hide the aged look of your favorite sofa, while the design will look new. This is an economical option so as not to change furniture. Your guests will not guess that the sofa is old.
A beautiful case will make the design and mood festive and solemn, as the choice of colors and textures is varied. A few moments and your living room looks completely transformed.
Material of blankets and bedspreads in the interior
When choosing a blanket, the first thing you should consider is not the shade or pattern, but the material from which it is made.
Fur
Bedspreads with fur are:
- made from real fur. Made from the skin of an animal, they are beautiful and very expensive. They are also warm and soft. They are comfortable to sleep in and look at home in classic styles that emulate a rustic past. For example, in a country house or in a chalet. The downside is that the fur becomes coarse over time and begins to shed. It can also cause allergies and is difficult to clean;
- from artificial. The bedspreads are also soft and warm, but they are much cheaper and easier to wash. There are also allergies to them, and even more often than to natural hair. A big plus for those who adhere to the principles of not killing animals for their own good.
Fur in modern styles looks unusual. Definitely not suitable for minimalism, it is unlikely to become a decoration for a loft. But it can find its place in modern Scandinavian style. The main thing is that the bedspread matches the color.
Knitted
These blankets and bedspreads come in a variety of colors and knitting sizes. They look good in classic, boho and eco styles. They can be made from either natural wool or synthetics. The former are warmer, the latter are easier to wash and last longer.
Any knitted fabric stretches over time from washing and even unravels, so it needs to be carefully looked after.
Fleece
Fleece is a soft synthetic fabric that comes in a wide range of colors. Sometimes in a checkered pattern, with a floral, monochromatic pattern. The great advantage of the fabric is that it is very light and at the same time warm, so winter clothes are often sewn from it.
Another plus is the price. Fleece blankets and throws are cheaper than all others, so it doesn't matter if they fade over time. You can always buy a new blanket or bedspread.
They are unpretentious in washing and do not particularly require water temperature. However, they look quite simple and would look somewhat out of place in an elegant living room. But modern styles like minimalism are perfect.
Patchwork
Patchwork capes are a variety of colorful pieces of fabric with a specific geometric theme that represent real patchwork patterns.
Velvet blankets
Beautiful and chic canvases are used to decorate styles such as Baroque. They are distinguished by their original pattern, wavy texture, and soft pile on the surface of the fabric. However, it is quite difficult to care for such a model, and the cost is high.
Cotton
Usually there are cotton bedspreads, but I don’t have blankets, and they are light: pink, gray, white, beige. Sometimes they have lace, sometimes embroidery. They look great in apartments decorated in a classic style. For example, in Provence style.
Cotton does not cause allergies, is pleasant to the touch, not particularly warm, and soft. It's nice to lie on it. Cleaning does not require much effort - most washing machines have a special mode for this. However, it is difficult to remove stains from it. Cotton bedspreads are quite expensive, like all products made from natural fabrics.
Fluffy
They combine simplicity and chic, add softness, tenderness to the atmosphere and give a pleasant tactile sensation.
With frills
A bedspread decorated with ruffles looks very cute, gentle and elegant and fills the atmosphere with lightness and coquetry.
The photo shows a sofa with a black blanket decorated with ruffles.
Quilted
They have a truly attractive appearance. Thanks to stitching, the surface of the quilted pattern looks neater, more elegant and more elegant. In addition, by using thread stitches, it is possible to create a variety of patterns in the form of lines, squares, herringbones and other fancy patterns.
Wool fabric
Wool is a fabric made from natural threads. It has a soft texture and beautiful decor. Excellent heat retention and good breathability. The downside to using wool blankets is that they are impractical.
Bedspreads quickly lose shape and color with frequent washing. To improve the properties of the material, the technology of combining artificial threads and wool fibers is used.
Jacquard
A jacquard blanket can be double-sided.
Jacquard blankets are made from various materials: cotton, linen, wool, synthetics. The main feature of the material is its large woven pattern.
Peculiarities:
- high wear resistance;
- the jacquard blanket is washable;
- aesthetic appearance;
- heat preservation.
The jacquard pattern can be different: one-sided and two-sided, with pile, small and large.
Silk and satin
Cute satin and silk bedspreads are perfect for the bedroom. On a hot summer day they will provide pleasant coolness..
Satin sofa cover
A thin and light satin sofa cover looks best in soft pastel colors. A good option is fabrics that match the color of the bed linen.
Camel's wool
Products made from natural wool are not cheap.
Natural material, one of the best of its kind. Products made from natural camel wool are expensive because the raw material is produced in limited quantities.
Material properties:
- softness;
- lightness (camel wool is lighter than sheep’s wool);
- heat preservation;
- hygroscopicity;
- hypoallergenic;
- breathability;
- wear resistance.
Wool does not dye well, so there are only natural colors in beige and brown tones.
Tapestry for blanket
Quite a heavy fabric made using a special weaving method based on the jacquard principle. The following weaving threads are used in production: wool, cotton fiber, linen.
Cases
Some manufacturers offer their customers an additional accessory - a cape. It has the same dimensions and is made of the same material as the sofa cover. These covers can be sold separately or made to order.
Atlas
This material makes very beautiful, sophisticated and elegant bedspreads, suitable for both classic and historical interiors. This bedspread will make any interior cozy. But for all its magnificent appearance, modern high-tech satin on a cotton or artificial basis will cost much less, for example, a silk product.
Satin bedspread
Satin is elastic, not afraid of stretching and deformation, and with careful handling and care it can last a long time. Satin fabrics do not fade in the sun, so they can lie on the sofa by the window.
Dust mites do not grow in satin, so the resulting products can be considered hypoallergenic. They can also be successfully used to decorate cribs.
Satin requires careful washing, as poor care will lead to the appearance of unsightly spots and halos on its surface. Manufacturers recommend not to wash such products yourself, but to entrust their care to dry cleaning.
Bilateral
This product has a front and back side that can be used equally as decoration. A reversible blanket can easily transform a space and change the ambiance of a room.
Cotton
This natural product looks great and does not cause allergies. This blanket is multifunctional and versatile - it is suitable for a sofa in the living room, and for a crib, and can serve as a blanket. Cotton bedspreads are affordable, but they are high quality and last a long time.
Cotton for sofa covers
Cotton can be washed at very high temperatures to remove germs and stubborn stains.
The variety of patterns, colors and design options for cotton fabrics is enormous. You can choose the right option for every room in the house.
The disadvantage is the lack of effectiveness compared, for example, with satin or tapestry samples. However, a cotton bedspread is ideal for certain interior styles. In addition, the practicality of the product can compensate for its external “simplicity”. But the following information will help you figure out what fabric to sew a bedspread from.
Plush
The disadvantage of a plush blanket is the rapid accumulation of dust.
A plush blanket is a fabric with a high, smooth pile. Externally, the material resembles soft shiny wool, and sometimes it is dyed in different colors. The plush is made of wool and cotton, as well as viscose.
Material characteristics:
- beauty;
- force;
- heat preservation;
- dimensional stability;
- color fastness.
Soft blankets made from natural materials are more expensive than synthetic ones. They accumulate dust if not properly maintained. It is difficult to remove stains from a plush blanket, so it is not suitable for a child's room or kitchen.
Microfiber
Extremely soft and delicate artificial material. Bedspreads made from it can also be used, as they are very soft and warm. The microfiber product is resistant to deformation, does not stretch, does not shrink, and does not lose its operational and decorative characteristics for a long time. Colors remain bright and fresh, without pilling, puffs or scratches.
Microfiber is easy to wash - in a regular washing machine. Basic care, even ironing is not required, the fabric practically does not wrinkle.
Microfiber for sofa covers
The bedspread is very pleasant to the touch, children will like it. And the low cost makes these products accessible to everyone. Microfiber fabrics are durable and hypoallergenic. Apart from its artificial origin, there are no shortcomings here.
Acrylic
Some manufacturers also call this material "faux wool". This is an artificial material, so the fabric is hypoallergenic, resistant to deformation, does not fade or fade. In addition, acrylic bedspreads are lightweight, making them suitable for travel blankets.
The acrylic coating lasts a long time and is durable. The fabric does not shrink, does not curl, and retains its bright colors. The material is warm and cozy. The cost of the products is low, so you don’t have to think long about choosing the model you like.
Acrylic for sofa covers
The disadvantages include the ability of acrylic to accumulate static electricity. This property of the bedspread may be unpleasant for some.
Design and prints
Blankets and bedspreads can be decorated:
- embroidery. Also a classic option, inappropriate in a modern interior. He can depict anything: a cow, a stuffed animal, a bird, a lilac, a zebra, a long row of cubes. You can do it yourself;
- drawing. It could be anything. Children love superheroes, adults love stars and clouds. The pattern can be applied to the fabric manually, or it can be printed. Typically, drawings are printed from photos, resulting in good details. You can order a bedspread with your portrait or with your favorite symbols. The starting material can be anything: linen surface, fleece. But not fur.
- fabric inserts of different colors. It looks impressive, but it absolutely does not match with a patchwork quilt;
- unusual shape. This is also good, especially if you use such a blanket as a cover for a chair or sofa anywhere in a loft-style home.
The choice of bedspreads and blankets is huge. You can go to your nearest Ikea and buy the whole set there. The main thing is that its components look appropriate in the interior.
If there are a lot of accents in the setting, the bedspread should not be bright, leopard print or scarlet. It can be a soft neutral color. And vice versa: if there are almost no bright spots, it can itself become an accent.
Features of material selection
To make the right choice of material for the cover, you need to take into account the purpose of the room and the age category of people who will use the sofa.
Designers recommend using the following materials:
- for a children's room it is worth using environmentally friendly, safe and pleasant to the touch. They do not slip, retain their shape and last a long time. The colors can be with patterns and in various tones. At the same time, the nursery will become more comfortable and attractive.
- For the living room you should give preference to eco-leather or nubuck. They are practical to use, resistant to external influences, easy to care for and clean.
- The bedroom needs a special material that is resistant to damage, wear, and does not fade. Velor, flock or chenille are most suitable, as they consist of synthetic fibers.
How to choose the right bedspread for a corner sofa
- You can buy a ready-made bedspread for a corner sofa (if, of course, it is a standard size). Or update your look and opt for a cape.
- If the furniture was made to individual sizes, it is better to order the sewing of bedspreads in specialized stores.
In the photo there is a white blanket on the sofa and several pillows
A simple solution that protects both the upholstery and the furniture product itself are upholstery sets produced by special firms and companies. As soon as each section of the corner cabinet is covered with a lid, there will immediately be no need to “hide” the tangled and frayed fabric. A set of covers for a sofa or armchair will reduce the risk of damage to exclusive expensive material.
When there are many elements in the furniture, for example, in addition to the classic configuration, right and left projections are designed, experts recommend sewing a special bedspread. Depending on individual preferences, various types of fasteners can be used: zippers, buttons, buttons, hooks, fasteners, Velcro.
You may also want to consider lacing. Stretch blankets for a sofa are made from the most elastic material. It is the rubber threads that penetrate the fabric that allow the product to easily “cover” every centimeter. To ensure that the cover fits perfectly, simply measure the length of the back before purchasing.
Sofa cover: unusual shapes
If you can make standard bedspreads for a sofa with your own hands, and there is a large selection of them in stores, then for furniture of a non-standard shape, you will most likely have to order covers.
For example, only a professional can correctly design a cover for a corner sofa.
On unusually shaped sofas, the bedspreads should be rigid and not cause inconvenience when turning over. To secure them, as a rule, elastic bands or cords, metal fittings or buttons and rings are used.
If you are installing elastic bands or buttonholes, you can do it yourself, but accessories will require a special tool.
Covers for corner sofas can be either solid or consist of several separate pieces of upholstery. If the corner sofa is in the center of the room, the cover should also protect the back of the sofa.
To sew it, you will need a lot more fabric than the cape for the regular version of this piece of furniture.
Features of manufacturing covers
Any housewife who knows how to hold a needle and has experience in handling dense fabrics can take advantage of the knowledge of how to make a cover with her own hands. Of course, you can use a sewing machine, but mostly you will have to work by hand. Also an important and necessary skill will be the ability to make patterns. Suitable ready-made schemes are usually difficult to find.
How to sew a cover for a sofa? The simplest option is to use an old sofa cover. It must be cut into separate pieces and transferred to the selected material. This is a good way to practice your sewing skills.
But not every housewife has such an opportunity. Therefore there is another method. You can take some cheap fabric and try out the master class you like on it - there are plenty of them on the Internet and in specialized magazines.
After you check the sizing and how the cover will look on the sofa, you need to cut out the product and use it as a sample, taking a more expensive material.
As you can see in the photo of hand-made covers, the simplest solution is to put a cover on a sofa without armrests. Such furniture is used in interior design of cottages or children's rooms.
Instead of armrests, you can use small rectangular pads. In this situation, the shape of the cover will be extremely simple, and the decoration will be frills or flounces sewn along the bottom edge.
Set of sofa cover elements
This group consists of several parts that are placed on the seats, backs and armrests. The disadvantage of the product is that the blanket usually slides off the back and has to be constantly returned to its place.
To avoid such a situation, the housewife sews rings or buttons onto the back of the bedspread, with which the cape is attached. Such bedspreads are usually used on furniture sets (sofas and armchairs).
What are the benefits of a sofa cover?
Devandeks, throws and blankets for the sofa, which were in fashion in the past, are textile elements that require the same care as upholstery. Yes, they can help temporarily, but they will not get rid of numerous problems.
And sofa covers will help:
- Keep the new sofa free of scuffs, minor mechanical damage, scratches, drawings with a ballpoint pen if there are children in the house, dust and dirt. Also, an innovative textile product will help protect the sofa from the teeth and claws of pets, maintaining its original appearance for a long time. And you can enjoy natural upholstery at any festive moment, being confident in the excellent condition of your favorite piece of furniture;
- Hide damage, scuffs and scratches on an old sofa. This is especially true if your plans do not include new upholstery or a new sofa, and you, for example, are expecting guests. And no one will suspect that a massive leather sofa on a wooden frame served your grandfather;
- Create a special mood, decorate a room for a holiday or family celebration. The ability to choose covers in different colors and different material textures will allow you to transform your interior, adding glamor and bohemianism, sophistication and conciseness, naturalness and originality. Such a simple solution as a sofa cover will transform your living room, bedroom, children's or guest room in just a few minutes.

Living room bedspread size
Most often, simple rectangular bedspreads are used in the interior, which can be bought in the store. These bedspreads are made in standard sizes, so choosing them for specific furniture will not be difficult. The fabric size is indicated on the label.
Furniture must be measured in advance according to the following parameters:
- Seat width
- Back height
- Sofa length
The length of the bedspread should be 20-25 cm longer than the length of the sofa. The width of the upholstery should be 40-50 cm greater than the sum of the height of the backrest and the width of the seat. Then the blanket will completely cover the sofa and there will be free edges that can be left tucked behind the pillows or simply folded.
Standard bedspread sizes:
- 150X220 cm. This size is suitable for a sofa with a low back.
- 180x220cm It is better to buy a bedspread for a sofa with a low but wide back.
- 220x220 cm. This size is ideal for a sofa with a high back.
Advice. The cover does not have to cover the entire surface of the sofa. It is possible that the bedspread is used only for part of the product.
The lining protects the upholstery from damage, and the bedspread creates a unique picturesque image. Fur or leather capes are very suitable for such a composition.
Selection of Eurocases
When choosing a cover, the width of the sofa's seating area is not taken into account. The size determines the number and length of seats, back length, armrest length, height from seat to floor, seat depth. When choosing a large cover, it is recommended to take into account the height of the sofa.
For a sofa without armrests, choose a Euro-cover with elastic bands, because it fits more tightly to the surface. This is a simple and economical option. A cover with ties is not very convenient, as the strings can come untied.
Euro-covers for corner sofas are divided into left-sided and right-sided models, in accordance with the side of the corner of the sofa. The length of the cover is selected according to the number of seats. Such covers reach up to 5 m in length.
Euro covers for Ikea sofas are selected only in Ikea stores.
By purchasing several types of European covers, you can change the design of the furniture. The cost of covers depends on the density of the fabric and its resistance to impact.
Classification of products by fiber composition
Based on the type of thread-like fibers from which the blanket is made, they are divided into:
- Synthetic. They are made from man-made fibers such as acrylic, rayon, fleece and faux fur.
Acrylic bedspreads are an inexpensive option. Bright and colorful, they do not lose their original characteristics even after repeated washing. Soft, hypoallergenic and beautiful acrylic sofa covers are the dream of every housewife. Their only drawback is low heat transfer. Original fleece products have no disadvantages. They allow moisture to pass through and do not retain air. Soft as silk, delicate and pleasant to the touch.
Viscose blankets for sofas and armchairs are extremely beautiful. They attract with their brightness and brilliance. They look natural. They perfectly complement the interior with their elegance and are a worthy decoration of the home.
A faux fur sofa blanket looks luxurious and elegant. Their huge advantage is their exceptional affordability compared to blankets made from natural fur. They are warm and comfortable, they last a long time and allow air to pass through well. But there are also significant disadvantages - the ability to accumulate electrostatic charges and trap dust particles.
- Natural blankets for the sofa. The basis of the fibers is natural threads and materials. These are fur, wool, cotton and bamboo.
Natural fur is an expensive fabric for making bedspreads. Consequently, such products have an “impressive” cost. Most often, products made from natural animal fur are used for decorative purposes, when upholstering a chair, sofa or bed. The assortment line is not rich, since mainly such bedspreads are made to individual orders.
Fur bedspreads add a touch of luxury and exclusivity to the interior. Such products are dense and heavy. In isolated cases, they can cause allergic reactions. Their durability, versatility, uniqueness and excellent performance capabilities make them leaders among other coatings.
Wool products are very soft and light, weightless, and also rich in color palette, which is also important for creating an individual interior style.
Cotton bedspreads are considered the most beautiful. They have many advantages: they are hypoallergenic, practical and easy to care for. And for those who value environmental friendliness, you can take a closer look at bamboo rugs. Safety, antibacterial properties, excellent moisture absorption - these are the reasons why bamboo products are popular.
A question of aesthetics and beauty: harmony of colors and patterns
The choice of color, shade, pattern or pattern of the cover material is as important as the choice of the material itself. After all, a competent combination of shades and tones, large or small patterns can both refresh, ennoble, make the living space brighter and more expressive, and suppress it. Therefore, when making a choice, proceed from the existing interior design and your own color preferences and feelings.
Emerald chair cover
For example, to create a spacious and bright room, use monochrome fabrics in light or matte shades. This will allow you to completely relax and enjoy a good rest in such a room. And also add expressiveness at any moment using bright pillows or accessories.
Multi-colored sofa cover
To create drive and positive energy in a room with matte tones, choose a cover in green, yellow, pink or blue. This will give the room naturalness, simplicity and charm. You can also make the room feel rich and luxurious by combining white and chocolate, champagne and cognac, black and snow, and other classic contrasting shades in your color palette. They, like no one else, emphasize modern styles that strive for expressiveness through simplicity, restraint and conciseness.
Blue sofa cover
There is no need to choose a small pattern for a cover on a massive sofa - it will get lost against its background. a large pattern will weigh down a small room, and a too colorful one will irritate. In a word, the color, texture and pattern of the canvas are a continuation of the textile design of your bedroom, living room or nursery. Choose covers wisely and with love!

The most common ideas are knitting and patchwork. So, you can collect old things and scraps of fabric and sew a colorful, unusual and bright blanket for the sofa yourself, combining fabrics at your discretion.
Knitting is also quite an exciting activity, because sometimes the process is so exciting that people switch to complex patterns and create real masterpieces. A handmade quilt is an expression of your individuality.
