Furniture Slipcovers Transform a Room

Let's face it, we keep hearing that the economy is in a slow recovery and, although that should feel like good news, consumers are still wary of returning to their old spending habits, opting instead to stay on the frugal path.

So who has the money to spend on transforming an entire room? Slipcovers to the rescue!

They've been around for a while and most people know they are great for creating a new look in a flash. But nowadays they come in a wider variety of patterns and colors than ever.

Perhaps slipcover designers are privy to this economy thing and know slipcovers will sell well to folks looking to make a change.
