The advantages of using chair covers
Chairs can be used without cloaks. But thanks to these accessories, furniture and the entire room space can be transformed beyond recognition! Such capes:
- First, decorate the dwelling, making it more elegant and attractive;
- secondly, protect furniture from hard-to-remove stains and other contaminants;
- third, under the cloak, you can hide a comfortable, but old and shabby chair;
- and fourthly, if you want to change the accents in the interior, then making new covers for chairs will be more practical than completely replacing furniture.
Types of capes
These accessories can be very different depending on their destination. They can be used for kitchen, living room or children's room. So, kitchen chairs are better "dressed" in a practical cotton or synthetic fabric: it will protect the upholstery of furniture from kitchen-specific impurities. The same applies to the nursery: a similar cloak for a chair for a child will help to preserve the furniture in its original form, because the cloth cape can always be washed. Covers for children's chairs are usually decorated with appliqués depicting animals or cartoon characters.
