Slipcovers are the perfect item for home improvement. They offer a wide range of amazing prints, colors, and textures to create just the right look for any desired atmosphere in the home. In addition, slipcovers protect furniture, can cover old stains or tears, and increase the usable lifetime of any piece of furniture.

There are three important steps when it comes to getting the right chair slipcovers. Homeowners need to pick the right style to complement their home's design, ensure they get the right measurement, and choose the right accessories to finish the look.

Choosing The Right Style Of Chair Slipcovers
Thankfully, there are a large number of options and styles when it comes to picking out the right type. For example, the home designer has the choice between a long skirt and a short skirt. Full length skirts are very elegant and can also disguise chair legs that show signs of wear or no longer match the desired decor. However, short skirts will do the opposite and show off chair legs, which is a good choice when the homeowner wants to show off this feature of a dining room.
Chair slipcovers can be designed to fit any type of chair from ladder back, parsons, Queen Anne, colonial, Chippendale and most other styles. Other choices include straight, curved, round or square, wooden or upholstered backs. The sheer amount of prints, colors, and patterns available is too numerous to list, but there are offerings to match any style of classic or contemporary tastes. The choice to have ties in the back or not is just one of the many available options.
Best of all, the overall design of a chair cover can incorporate multiple elements into an attractive combination. A straight skirt can have a split kick pleat in the center of the chair combined with a pair of ties in the back while using any type of color or pattern to please the visual palette.
While the many choices can seem daunting, in the end, the flexibility in styles and options is the best way to guarantee any homeowner can find the perfect fit for their home.
Making The Right Measurements
It might seem to be an easy task to measure out a chair and use those dimensions to specify a perfect fit for a custom slipcover. However, there are a good number of precise measurements that have to be made in order to achieve that perfect fit. Let's take a moment to better understand how to measure our chairs in order to make the right purchase.
First, for chairs without arms, measure the seat width at both the front and back ends of the chair, not all seats have a constant width. Then, measure the seat's height from the floor to the top of the cushion and the depth from the front of the cushion to the back of the seat. Get the overall chair height from the floor to the highest point, and then move onto the seatback. Find out the height from the top of the seat to the highest point on the back, the width at the top of the seatback, and finally the depth at its widest point.
When the chair has arms, there are a few different measurements for the chair slipcovers. The overall arm height is measured as the distance from the floor to the top of the arm, while the arm height itself is just the difference between the seat and the top of the arm. Get the length from the front of the arm to the connecting joint and the width of the arm itself. Finally, measure out the greatest distance between the arms.
Custom Slipcovers For A Custom Look
In most dining room sets, there are usually two chairs with arms and four without. This means that in order to get a uniform design, a homeowner's best choice is to order a cover for each chair individually. Pre-made sets might not include the right mix of chair slipcovers with and without arms. Custom slipcovers can be ordered in the right quantity and can incorporate all of the design choices from above. Take the time to dive into the design process to end up with a product that is truly unique and matches the particular design of a home.
Overall, it is a fairly straightforward process to find the type of chair slipcovers that will make a room and an entire house really pop.
