Comfort Works is an Australian based company that makes custom slipcovers for IKEA sofas. I realize not everyone has an IKEA sofa, but never fear, Comfort Works also creates custom curtains, quilt covers and pillow covers! Yes, I said custom. But the great thing is that they are affordable as well.

Comfort Works contacted me a while back to see if I would be willing to review a slipcover for the Ektorp chair that is currently in my home office. Once I visited their website and saw all of the great fabric options, I was so excited, I jumped at the chance. Trouble is, there were so many great choices, I just wasn't sure what to do. No problem! They sent me a bunch of free swatches from my favorite fabrics so that I could make sure I was completely happy with my choice.
I ultimately settled on Elizabeth Green which was the perfect shade of aqua to go in my office. And once the slipcover arrived, I was amazed at the quality. The fabric was thick and soft, and completely washable. The slipcover went on like a dream. Overall, much nicer than the IKEA slipcover I had on the chair. Truly high quality for a great price. If your worried that the shipping from Australia might negate the affordable slipcover, you don't need to be. Just $25 flat rate shipping. Amazing, truly.
I really wish that the photos of my slipcover could do it justice. (That's what I get for having a home office in the basement - with no windows might I add.) But, trust me, it's lovely. And it's so nice to have an option besides the plain white cover I already had.

I'm working on a girl room just for me...would love to win this as I am loving some of their fabric!! Thanks for posting this giveaway.
Starting out with my first apartment, Ikea has been amazing. I had no idea that this company had different slip covers especially for Ikea sofa's and chairs!! YYAHHHHH!!! Thanks for putting this out there - can't wait to explore and do a little shoppin' now!
I love the stripes on the slipcover!! Looks like very nice stuff
This would be great for the redecorating that I want to do!! Thanks for the great info on a great site!
This is wonderful! We are having an addition built and all decorating will have to be done on a shoestring. Which means some of the new furniture will be Ikea and the rest will be stuff that is "found" so it will be nice to have something that can be changed out and washed especially with 3 teen boys and a HUGE dog!
Thank you for this opportunity!
They're "stuff" looks great! I would love to win.
Oh, thanks for sharing! I'm pretty well in love with them now...the curtain choices make me smile really big!
That's awesome! I have the Ektorp sofa in WHITE at home, and was just about to replace the cover because lets just say.... it's not as white as it used to be!!!!!! Great giveaway!!!

Love your new slipcover, Wendy! And that pillow on the chair too! I completely know what you mean about commenting! Lately I have been reading most of my favorite blogs on my phone in the morning while I snuggle with Lillie and my phone doesn't let me comment and of course I never get back on the computer to leave a comment later that day because I am running around like a chicken with my head cut off and then always feel bad! I love coming and checking out your beautiful blog ever morning, though!
What a great giveaway!!
Count me in please.
