Before I got wind of the amazing pieces that could be found a my local thrift stores, I bought this $40 wingchair from a Craigslist seller. It looks pretty good from afar, but up close tells another story. The previous owner had a cat that apparently used the arm of the chair as a scratching post and the fabric was no bueno.

I’d plan to put the wing chair in the master bedroom, but I decided to move it into the children’s playroom for additional holiday seating. It still needs to be reupholstered, but the task is not on the top of my to-do list. Instead I chose the more budget friendly option of ordering a slipcover from Surefit.  Slipcovers are not only great for a furniture quick change, but they also allow you the option to live with secondhand furniture until you get around to having it reupholstered.

Available in an array of colors and styles, the slipcovers are also machine washable and super easy to put on.

Velcro ties encircle each leg to insure a snug fit.

I chose the the Form Fit, Stretch Suede in Oatmeal. It’s very soft, comfortable, and has a great overall look.

Slipcovers has come a long way, haven’t they? Do you currently have upholstered furniture that could use a quick fix? Have you tried Surefit?
