Floral Couture Office Chair Slipcover

Author Bonnie ZoBell recently converted her garage into a new office and added a little pizzazz with some wonderful Cozy Cottage Office Chair Slipcovers. Free download The Whack-Job Girls, her first book, here.

 I am so glad Bonnie sent me pictures of her newly decorated office.  I love the way the fabric on the office chair slipcovers pull all the colors of the room together. The fabric is Floral Couture in color Mandarin from  the Amy Butler Lark Collection.

Coffee Sack Slipcover


 Burlap slipcovers? 
 Yes! You can add a burlap coffee sack to your slipcover. Pinterest is loaded with ideas on using burlap coffee sacks. Everything was pre-washed- burlap, coffee sack and the solid cotton fabric.  There are many helpful links on-line on how to pre-wash and sew burlap and burlap coffee sacks. Here is a great blog post- www.ellaclaireinspired.com .  This slipcover will need to be dry clean only.
All burlap and coffee sack pieces were lined with a cotton muslin.

Every part of the chair that would touch your skin is covered in the soft cotton fabric.

The customer did not want to use cording so everything was top stitched.

These are a couple of coffee sack slipcovers I found on Pinterest.  These are both made of a softer fabric than the one I used.

Winged Settee and Ottoman Slipcover

I love this winged settee and ottoman.  It is a perfect cozy spot to snuggle up and read a book.  The fabric used in this slipcover is a linen/cotton blend in color Maize.  We added a short skirt with corner kick pleats.

White Slipcovers in the Dining Room

I love the look of the two slipcovered chairs at the end of a table.  My customer chose the 100% cotton linen-look fabric for her custom slipcovers.  We finished them off with a mini knife pleated skirt.


 I love the look of the white slipcovers against all the dark wood.

Butterfly Office Chair Slipcover

This style office chair is more difficult to offer long distance from measurments.  If the chair was purchased recently or is still available in stores such as Staples or Office Max then I can fit the slipcover in the store on the actual chair.  As you can tell from the pictures this slipcover was fitted at Staples.  I have permission from the manager and I go early in the morning.

The customer chose Amy Butler Alchemy Line of fabrics- pattern: Queenann's Butterflies and a pink pattern for the contrast fabric.
This customer also chose to have matching arm covers made.
