One thing that's awesome about Ikea sofas is that nearly all of them have covers that are removable and washable. This makes them great for living with kids or very messy people. Even if you're neat as a pin and child-free, though, the novelty of switching out the look of your living room for less than $250 is certainly a treat.

We've seen some beautiful outdoor spaces that have been entered as part of the CasaSugar Summer Style contest. Today, though, I have a great entry that shows a warm weather-friendly interior space.

Slipcovers are a pretty great invention for klutzes like myself, who often eat, and frequently spill, on the sofa. They can be balled up and machine washed like a coffee-stained white blouse. But they don't look as polished as an upholstered sofa, and unless you have one specially made, the fabric selection is minimal.

A slipcover is a removable fabric covering that provides a quick and easy way to reupholster a sofa, chair, or loveseat. Alternately very helpful and endlessly frustrating, slipcovers come in various forms to suit different needs and price points.
The most basic slipcovers are one-piece swaths of fabric that you secure to furniture with ties.
