When creating a beautiful home for yourself or those who you live with and the guests you want to impress, it’s important to ensure that the end result is a comfortable yet stylish space and one that speaks about who you are and also your personal tastes.

Interior design is a skill and so when it all comes together as a finished look you may just want to wrap up your home in cotton wall and with plastic sheets to avoid anything looking any less than perfect. This, however, defeats the object and your home should be a space where you are content and happy to invite others in without fussing around them worrying about spillages and dirty marks.

There’s nothing wrong with taking pride in your home and the furniture and precious items inside of it, but you’ll ultimately want to be able to relax at all times, and so this is the time when handy items like a sofa cover, doormats and easy to clean rugs will be of the greatest use.

If you haven’t yet considered the many benefits of utilising a sofa cover in your home, then you’re about to be convinced as we outline five reasons why you should get a slipcover for your sofa.

1. Protect expensive or antique furniture from damage and spills

The most obvious reason for purchasing a sumptuous sofa cover is to protect your precious furniture from spills and potential damage. Investing in a great quality sofa to last for years to come is always a great idea, but over time wear and tear is typical. Make your statement sofa last much longer by slipping on a cover to protect it from everyday wear, potential fading from the sun and occasional accidents. You will be able to invite friends to your home and allow children to roam freely with ease feeling safe in the knowledge that your beautiful sofa is well protected.

2. Protect it from pets

Adding a cat or dog to your family is one of life’s greatest joys and being greeted by them at the end of a tiring day is sure to perk up any family member. Evenings spent on the sofa reading, watching a movie or catching up with family can be made even more possible with a cuddle from your four-legged friend, but you will definitely want to protect your sofa’s fabric from fur, scratching and other stains that our beloved pets can leave behind. An easily washable slipcover will be your favourite purchase and your pets can relax with ease too.

3. Easy to care for and maintain

Every homeowner knows how exhausting cleaning a couch can be, even those with removable cushion covers. One large slipcover can be whipped off in an instant when it’s required to be washed and popped in the washing machine ready for use again in no time at all leaving you free to enjoy a plethora of other things in your life that require attention.

4. Helps to give your space a coherent look

Though you may not redecorate all too often, when you do it’s not always necessary to buy entirely new furniture or a new sofa, especially if it’s still in great condition. If your new look doesn’t quite match up with your existing sofa, then covering it over can be an easy fix. Available in a range of colours, prints and materials, you will be able to elevate the space without a big extra cost or very much fuss at all.

5. Gives your room a new character in an instant

If you have decided to decorate your lounge in fairly neutral tones, then a great way to satisfy your desire for change on a regular basis would be to purchase a few slipcovers and change them out every once in a while. With the changing seasons you can change your interiors, so for summer linens and lighter tones can be brought in within the sofa and cushion covers and when cooler months prevail, switch them out for richer colours and cosier fabrics.
