Red, White & Blue Sitting Area in a Log Home | Creative Cain CabinIv’e recovered from the graduation party and have everything back in order again. I’m happy to say my white slipcovers came through the ordeal without a stain or ice cream spill. When I swapped them over before the party I thought to myself….this may be a big mistake, but I did it anyway. The white always looks so clean and fresh and it fit the party color theme.

Red, White & Blue Sitting Area in a Log Home | Creative Cain CabinMy home probably looks like the 4th of July a big portion of the time. Red, white, and blue are staple colors in the cabin. I can’t believe we have been in this house for 6 years already and the slipcovered furniture from JCPenney’s still looks like the day I purchased it. That has been a very good investment, normally I would purchase new furniture every 3 years just because I got tired of what we had. Well whoever invented slipcovered furniture was brilliant. When I tire of the color now, I just put on a different slip…..problem solved.

Red, White & Blue Sitting Area in a Log Home | Creative Cain CabinI do wish they would make a true red slip. I have the henna and it’s great for fall but it’s not red it’s more of a burnt orange color. Maybe this winter if I get ambitious enough I will make a red denim set myself (don’t anyone hold your breath on that one). 

Red, White & Blue Sitting Area in a Log Home | Creative Cain CabinNow on to the purpose of this post:     Everyone have a safe and happy 4th. Enjoy family time, BBQ’s, and fireworks, and don’t forget to be thankful for our independence ๐Ÿ™‚

    Dawn, as a new reader, I’m enjoying your cabin. Of course, it helps that my favorite colors are the same as yours! And slipcovers are a Godsend. I do have a true red on our den sofa and a red/white gingham on the chair, but I had those made by a local lady. And believe me, when they wear out, I will replace them! So many versatile changes with slipcovers. I do not have them in our more formal living room, but if I found fabric that would work there, I’d have them there too. Have a great 4th!

      Vicki, I would love a gingham slip. I wish I had someone around here that could make them for me. I know I can do it I just need to put my mind to it. You have a wonderful day today ๐Ÿ™‚

      Andrea, I love that rooster fabric too. I purchased 2 yards and when I went back to get more it was gone and I have never found it again.

    Good morning Dawn and Happy 4th. I love your red, white and blue in your sweet cabin. So pretty for today’s holiday. Did you think about dying a white slipcover set instead of sewing and buying new fabric. I think the white slipcovers would be an easy dye. There is all kinds of instructions on how to dye a slipcover easily on pinterest. Gotta love pinterest! Happy 4th.

      Kris, I did try to dye the henna ones with red and didn’t notice any difference. The slips are so expensive I would hate to ruin a set. When Im ready to replace my white set I should try dying them. Great idea girl.

    Sewing a slipcover? Wow, that would be an undertaking.

    I am glad I went with white although they show the dirt. I just have to wash the slipcovers more frequently.

    Last week Steve dozed off on the sofa with a glass of red wine in his hand. It took 4 washings with OxyClean, but the cushion is sparkling white once again.

      Carol, I wish mine were easier to get on. They fit so tightly I dread washing them. My hands hurt for days after tugging and struggling to get them on. I even put them on wet straight out of the washer so they have a little give. I can’t believe you got the wine out, good for you, it would be horrible to have such a stain.

    Happy 4th to you, Dawn! New furniture every 3 years – heheh, A young friend was helping me with furniture arrangement ideas and asked how many years I’d had our couch and love seat. I thinks she was shocked when I said, “Since 1989”! That’s the trouble with really good quality that doesn’t wear out. I need to check out slipcovers, I think.

    Hope you and your family enjoyed your 4th of July celebrations. I love the idea of covers for furniture. We need new chairs for the living room and I will have to look around and see what I can find with covers … I see someone mentioned Ikea, so will check there.
