Slipcovers are a great way to change the look and feel of your furniture! Or, drape new fabric over your furniture for a breezy, casual look. Consider lighter, brighter neutrals and soft, comfortable fabrics. A beautifully textured fabric on your sofa feels cozy and warm in the winter, but might feel too warm when you’re in shorts! Fabrics with cotton and linen feel soft and are cooling, and simply woven fabrics without raised patterns or embroidery work well.
Accent with cooling colors such as navy blue, turquoise, pale blues, soft greens and lavender. The colors of the deep snow are depressing in winter but so refreshing during summer! These blues also go well with white, gray, tan and sand colors for a relaxing resort feeling. And, you can easily swap the cool colors for warm during winter.
