In the video above there is Ektorp Armchair Cover from Covereo.com
Out with the Old, In with the New
The old, faded slipcover had seen better days. Stains and wear were taking away from the charm of the Ektorp armchair that we once loved. Instead of replacing the entire chair, we opted to switch out the old cover for a vibrant, high-quality yellow Ektorp slipcover from Covereo.com. You can find that and many other options clicking here.
The new IKEA EKTORP armchair cover not only gave the armchair a fresh, updated look, but it also transformed the whole room. The cheerful yellow added a burst of energy and brightness to the space, pairing perfectly with our white walls and grey decor accents.
Decorating Around the EKTORP Armchair
To complement the new Ektorp armchair cover, we introduced a few thoughtful decorative touches to the room. Here's what we added:
- House Plants: A couple of green house plants were placed beside the armchair to bring a touch of nature into the space. Green plants pop beautifully against the yellow slipcover and create a fresh, lively atmosphere.
- Tulips in a Vase: Fresh tulips, with their delicate shape and soft petals, added a touch of elegance. Yellow tulips balanced the yellow cover.
- Side Table: We placed a stylish white side table next to the armchair, perfect for resting a coffee cup or a decorative lamp. The light-colored table added a clean, minimalist feel that let the armchair remain the focal point.
- Design Curtains: The grey and white triangular curtains complemented the room’s overall color scheme, adding texture and movement. The soft greys tied in beautifully with the yellow Ektorp covers and other elements of the room.
- Round Fluffy Carpet: A cozy round carpet was placed under the side table, adding warmth and texture. The softness of the carpet paired perfectly with the vibrant color of the slipcover, making the space inviting and comfortable.
- Flowerpot Covers: To keep the design cohesive, we used stylish flowerpot covers for our plants, which tied in with the modern look of the room. The neutral tones of the pots contrasted nicely with the yellow Ektorp armchair cover, letting both the furniture and plants shine.
Why Yellow Works So Well
Yellow is a bold, cheerful color that radiates warmth and positivity. Paired with white and grey accents, it creates a balanced and welcoming space that feels both modern and timeless. The yellow Ektorp slipcover from Covereo was the perfect choice for this makeover because it brought brightness into the room without overwhelming the space.
In fact, yellow works incredibly well as an accent color in neutral rooms. It pairs beautifully with both cool greys and bright whites, creating a fresh and modern look. Plus, the softness and quality of the Ektorp covers from Covereo.com really stand out. The premium material resists stains, is pet-friendly, and machine washable, making it both practical and stylish.
