Info Post

Ever thought of how cool it would be if only you could
customize your Ikea sofa or chair? Well you can! With
any fabric you want. Bemz is a company from Sweden
that specializes in custom Ikea slipcovers. They have
a huge array of fabrics readily available. The sofa and
chairs above are absolutely gorgeous.
Prices run from $105 to $265 for an Ektorp chair cover.
Sewn to perfection, pricing varies based on the type of
fabric that is chosen. Turn around time is about 4 weeks.

Conversely, a 2 seater sofa starts around $185
while 3 seater sofas start around $205.



Let's talk styling already! Using bold prints on an
armchair is a great way to really liven up a room.



Conversely, you can take a solid colored chair
and really spruce it up like this Ikea chair owner
did. Very swedish with flowery throw pillows and
a soft white throw.


This very neutral sofa looks gorgeous with a
group of different colored and patterned pillows.


Here's what I call a young and fun pad to hang out in.



One clever bride decided to cover Ikea
sofas and chairs for an outdoor event.


This is a very relaxed cottage style
with a slight nautical theme.


This home owner did a great job matching her chartreuse
sofa to her wallpaper. It's certainly a welcome pop of color.


This is what a kid's play area ought to be
like. Lots of color, shapes and textures.



I adore what they did on the right side by covering all of the dining chairs
with different colors and patterns. The Right side shows how much fun
you can have mixing patterns and colors on the same chair. It still works!



The red and white striped stool totally pops in this room.



Left: The striped sofa is a great idea for a nursery.
Right: Whoever said white was boring, look what you
can do with a plain white chair.



Bemz also creates fun throw pillows which you can also
purchase on their site. Now I realize that Ikea furniture isn't
for everyone. But for college students, growing kids or those on
a budget ~ Ikea can be a wonderful resource. I personally love
some of their items and think some of their items provide great
value. Bemz creates a great way to spruce up or change up
your Ikea furniture. Hope you've been inspired.
