Comfort Works: Great Day for a Giveaway~

Hello out there in blogland!! I am very excited to share a great company with you today!

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.

And today, you're in luck, because the good people at Comfort Works are offering $50 to one reader of the Shabby Nest to spend on anything Comfort Works has to offer. That means if you don't happen to have an IKEA sofa, you could spend it on a quilt cover, or curtains or a pillow cover.
