White upholstery can be daunting with pets and kids, but there are ways around having white furniture without having it ruined in a months time. One practical way of having lighter colored fabrics in your home is to create an additional seat cover with the same fabric. When guests come, or your kids, animals and guests sit on your furniture, there is no anxiety that your upholstery will get stained. Your seat cover can easily be thrown in the wash every two weeks for keeping it fresh. White also is a great choice, because it can be bleached where as other fabrics would be faded with so many washes over time. When you order, order enough for two slip covers.
For a bit of a pattern consider upholstering with brown and cream ticking , and finish off the carved details using a gold leaf pen.
