White slipcovers. There is just something so clean and refreshing and comfortable about a white slipcover. If you check out my Pinterest boards, you will quickly see that they are a favorite of mine :) We have a couple at our house, and while MANY proclaim the virtues of white slipcovers, they are just aren't a great fit for our household. It just comes down to what works for you :)

So, all that to say, when I get a chance to make a white slipcover for someone else, it's very enjoyable!

This chair and ottoman are well-loved by my client; they just needed a new look. My client requested a simple cover with pleats. So that's what I did...

The fabric is white cotton denim from Hobby Lobby (don't forget to use your 40% off coupon if you go, or watch their sales for 50% off deals!); it had a soft, comfortable feel and was nice to work with (and it was pre-washed, of course).

The cushion got a new layer of Dacron to fluff it up. And because the fabric was white and the fabric underneath was noticeably darker, I made muslin undercovers for both the chair and the ottoman (it helps the white slipcover look more white). You can see the undercover on the ottoman here...
