I would never get off the couch! I wonder, is this the Ikea striped slipcovered couch?

Becky Harris It's from Crate and Barrel. I think it was discontinued about a year ago, but they still have the fabric available. It is really tough to get off this couch, even with the ocean and the sand beckoning from the window!

Lisa Thanks Becky.
I will check online. It's a great navy stripe!

M J I have the Ikea Ektorp couch with the Navy and white slipcover you mention. We paid about $450 for the piece and another $135 (I think) for the slipcover. I use it all summer and like you love it. I love the slipcover shown though its a little lighter than the Ikea. As far as I know, you can still get that slipcover from them.

Lisa Hi MJ.
Thanks for your reply & photo. You just cannot beat Ikea's prices! I should mention that I have had a Pottery Barn Basic Couch for almost 10 years. Great piece of furniture! However a new PB slipcover runs close to $600! I bought the Ikea Ektorp couch slipcover in white denim and it fits perfectly! At $135 a pop, I actually bought two. The navy stripe would be fun on a couple of the Ektorp club chairs that I'm considering too!

M J I too am a huge fan of PB but just cannot justify paying so much more for similar looking pieces. I have done some research on PB knockoffs and IKEA hacks (where they take an Ikea piece and turn it into something better) if you are interested I will send you some links. Thanks for your reply. What is your next project?
