Slipcover Project
by pitcherandthepearl
So we are in the process of slip covering our two navy blue couches (hooray!). The two sure-fit natural duck slip covers have arrived – bought them for relatively cheap on amazon.com, it was about $65 for both covers. Here’s a quick picture of the style we went for:

I like the looser fit ones. I think they look a little less like slip covers, and I loved the light natural color. Plus with this style it gives you a bit more wiggle room to tuck and tie around the shape of your couch. To get an even more actual-couch look we decided to replace our two large back cushions with new over sized throw pillows that will be placed over the cover- we bought seven 26″x26″ euro pillows from target at $9.99 a pop. Now that we have the covers and the pillows, we’re going to need some pillow cases! Ive been scouring fabric.com to get some ideas and I came across a few swatches I absolutely love!

Can’t wait for my swatches to arrive!





I went to an AWESOME fabric store this weekend in Keene, if you’re ever up in NH you should pop in.
