other instances they can cover up

Women utilize them, too, to quick
change the mood of a room with the
seasons. For most Of us the covers
are a bit on the expensive side Of
the ledger. The readymade variety
are less expensive than the custom
designed, but even so the invest

and repair.

trick will help the general appear.
ance of the covers. AS to small spots
and stains, keep a bottle of very
good spot remover on the pantry
shelf for this purpose. There's q
fluid claimed to eradicate the most
stubborn spots, including lipstick
and indelible pencil, so it certainly
should be good for soft-drink stains
and the like.
Another suggestion for protecting
slip-cover fabrics is to get anti
macassars for arms and backs
Have them made of the same fabric
If possible, and they will never be
noticed. They can be basted or

dering.

tainly worth a try, but eventually
the covers are going to need clean
