Ever wished there was a way to update your sofa without having to spend a fortune on a brand new one? If you’ve found yourself in this predicament, then sofa covers may be the answer. Easy to use, quick to wash, and in a choice of colours, sofa covers will instantly give old furniture a makeover and make an old sofa look new again.
Alternatively, you may have recently bought a sofa that needs protecting. Not only do these couch covers update old sofas, they also offer protection from stains, pets and children. Or perhaps you’ve redecorated your living room and now you’re looking to change the colour of your sofa. In plain colours, sofa covers are completely versatile and designed to easily complement any interior style.

How to cover a sofa with a sofa slipcover
It’s easier than you think to cover your sofa with a readymade sofa cover. With a one-way stretch design, it provides a snug fit. The sofa covers come with a wide elastic band that slips underneath your seat cushion and ensures that the cover does not slip around when it is in use. Winged armchair covers and reclining armchair covers come in separate parts so that you can cover the furniture completely.
Watch below to see how easy it is to cover your sofa:
How to wash sofa covers
Washing sofa covers couldn’t be easier, which is great because it means that you can refresh your sofa as often as you want. They can be washed at home in your washing machine at 30 degrees, and then simply hang them out to dry. We recommend that you avoid tumble drying your sofa cover because this may cause shrinking.
How much does it cost to cover a sofa?
The biggest benefit of updating your sofa with a slipcover is the price. Starting from only £29.99, you can cover your one seater armchair, winged armchair, recliner chair, two seater sofa and three seater sofa. Meaning that you can easily make your sofa look new without buying a new sofa.
Fitted sofa covers are available to buy from Homescapes in a choice of colours.

I too would be thrilled if you come up with covers for a two seat recliner sofa! (I’ve made covers for a standard sofa before, but decided the recliner is a bit beyond me!)
Hi Ann,
Thanks for your comment! I will pass this on to our production team 🙂
