Yeah, I'm concerned about the light color too- but it is machine washable. We have no Toddlers of Destruction, though, just general messiness. There's an "antique" color that might work too, and it's a bit darker and dirt-colored.

Nora, both are pretty. I couldn't keep either of them clean for very long, but I am not a neat person.

Nora, I like those slipcovers. I have last year's model, and they never look that nice on my sofa & loveseat, but they do protect against the sun and general messiness from snacking while sitting. I take them off when we have company. To machine wash you need something bigger than the standard household machine.

Nora, have you looked at the Surefit [link] website? I got my couch slipcover directly from them.

Not taking into consideration the messy factor, I love that second one.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
no stiches needed. and I managed to the dishes. I must shower.
dinner is mac and cheese -but it has ham, broccoli, and spinach. and the cheese sauce has three of four chesses. I like to sprinkle diced tomato on top. plus there will be salald. and tj's peach strudal for dessert.
and the public rooms are neat and pretty clean. so I feel all set.

I had a sure fit denim cover for our chair and a half. It took dye fairly well when I needed to turn it green

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I've loved our SureFit slipcovers, but I also love the Target brand waffle weave slipcovers. AND much cheaper.
We have the red ones.

I'm glad you don't need stitches, beth. Can you shower with just the one hand and hold the other one up above your head resting on a wall or something so it doesn't start to bleed again in the hot water?
Your dinner violates pretty much every food rule/dislike my husband has. But I would love it.

Our wings are not tired.
Is the DH around to help you shower? ;)
