IKEA Forever: Bemz Covers for your Worn Out Furniture

So who sells millions of identical chairs and sofas all over the world, that eventually are going to get a bit tattered, torn up by the evil cat or stained beyond recognition at too many parties? IKEA. So talk about a brilliant idea: make aftermarket slipcovers for the IKEA line, even pieces that are no longer in production. Add a wider range of fabrics, patterns, colours. We love it because it is so simple and logical an idea, and will stretch out the lives of millions of Ektorps, Karlandas and Kramfors worldwide. ::Bemz via ::New York Times
