Slipcovers do not have to be a look for the dated or for those who don’t want to invest in reupholstery. A simple off white slipcover can span a range of styles from romantic to beachy to country to tailored. Below are several examples of the versatility of slipcovers.

A dining room does not need hard backed wooden chairs to evoke a strong, masculine feeling. These rooms below, by Ciao Interiors, all show a rustic look using upholstered dining chairs. All three rooms feature nailheads which are a great detail to add weight and strength to a chair. The leather with nailhead is a great look in a dining room that is going for a masculine look, as are the muted, deep paisley prints in the second two images. The interesting shapes and unique inset (on the first image) make the chairs statement pieces in the room.

A window seat is a great addition to any room. It provides a place to sit, talk, read, or daydream. It can make use of a spot in a room that would otherwise be unused space, and can multitask wonderfully if a storage unit is added beneath the seat. Below are some examples of window seats used in various settings. There is a window seat to lounge on in a bedroom, a relaxing window seat with an ocean view, a cozy place to curl up in a rustic cottage, and a sunny spot to sit in a multi-purpose breakfast area.
