I use a tablecloth on our dining table, none that need ironing though.
have a old sheet section I throw over the ironing board to wash weekly, I use a ton of starch
I cover our toaster because I have a tray with butter/S&P/sugar bowls on it that moves back and forth to the table.
Have a cuddle quilt over the back of a chair for quick grabbing.
Bed always has a quilt cover, changed out each month, double sided so I can flip it during the month.
That quilt always has a bed runner
because that way I can see two quilts every time I walk in the room.
The rocker in the bedroom has a quilt over the back, a gift from the yahoogroup dearjanequilters when my sister died.
My small drum table has a quilt over it.
I had a cover put over the big deck so I can enjoy it in various weather
