Tie-Dyed Couch

It takes a certain living room to pull this vibrant furniture, but I never thought about tie-dying a couch's slipcover! Sara Woodhull did just that.

What's with all the tie dye hate?

Excuse me while I get off your lawn now, too.

Tye Dye = Horrific
Slip Covers = Horrific

Tye Dye + Slip Cover = Abomination

Seriously let's start posting about how we craft bongs out of our recyclables.

That's because that's absolutely horrific!

neat, but

a little to "Hippie chic" for me. Does she live in Tempe? looks like my old apartment, LOL

@1 - yes. Not my taste, whatsoever (maybe it's the hippie colors) - but an interesting concept to be sure. I think I would have LOVED this about 10 years ago. Definitely an idea that could be pursued!

WOW!! Thats a funky couch! But if it's just a slipcover thats fun cause you could switch it up when you want! kool.

I dig it.

I'd agree that tie dye is kinda, um, yeeeeeeeeeaaah. For my tastes. However, I think it's cool that they've dyed the cushion covers themselves. I have a boring-ass beige couch and would like to dye the cushions some more interesting (preferably solid) color, and it's nice to know that it can be done.
