🧼 Bonus: Stain-Proofing Your Slipcover
Want extra protection? Before using your cover, spray it with a fabric protector (like Scotchgard) to help repel liquids and stains. For homes with pets or kids, choose waterproof or pet-friendly covers made from microfiber or polyester blends that are machine washable and durable.
🎨 Style Tips
- Choose neutral tones for a clean, classic look that goes with any decor.
- Swap covers seasonally—linen for summer, plush velvet for winter.
- Add throw pillows or a textured blanket to give dimension and style.
🛠 When to Replace vs. Refresh
If your sofa frame is still solid, there’s no need to replace it. A simple cover can easily give it a second life. Only consider replacing your couch if:
- The structure is sagging or broken
- There are mold or pest issues
- Foam is disintegrating beyond repair
Otherwise, this slipcover trick can extend your sofa’s life by years—for under $30 and in under 5 minutes!
