Can I AW my new sofa?

[motzie]

Yesterday I bit the bullet and ordered a sofa for our living room. Here she is...


It's Martha Stewart and it was on sale but the sale was ending yesterday so that helped push me into making a quick decision. I love her. Two weeks until it gets here.

I love it! I'm drawn to sofas with tufting.

Though when I finally bite the bullet and get myself new couches, I'm sure they are going to be in a more modern style.

It's gorgeous. I love it!

It is so pretty! Will you please PIP it when it gets to your house?! What color is the room it is going in?

Oh nice!

Our living room/game room is a pale sky blue color. I will PIP. I just got a big map framed that I want to hang over it. I have end tables, for now. They were $7 at Ikea, so if they don't work I'll find something new. I might order some fabric for some fun throw pillows so it doesn't look too formal.

That sounds so nice Motzie. I am lusting after some end tables at ikea right now. I feel like you could do a really fun, bright color with the end tables. I love lots of crazy colors though.

Love it!

[exploding people]

Oooh, I love it!

[neonpink]

I love it. That is really a lovely sofa.

I really want to take a nap on it. But I'm scared I'd ruin the pretty with a giant drool patch.

It's absolutely gorgeous.

Nice! I can't wait to see the end result!

Love! Makes me want to replace our black leather set I've never been all that crazy about!

We have brown leather in the family room, which is practical, and I like it better than I thought I would, but I secretly love that the dogs have been scratching it and the leather is starting to peel at the piping. I have a big, cozy, charcoal gray sectional in mind for when it is wrecked in a few years.

Yeah, I've got a mismatch pair: one is a tan microfiber and the other is a dark brown slip covered POS. I HATE THEM AND WANT TO SET THEM ON FIRE.

We are sofa shopping right now, but H and I can't seem to agree on anything. And I have champagne wishes on a boxed wine budget.

Our current furniture is navy blue. It's super comfy, but well worn in. I think it's about 9 years old. I'm looking forward to furnishing a new place with new stuff, even if it's just new to me.

PS, a few weeks ago I decided I really hated the sofa I had in my sewing room. I threw it over my balcony and then into the dumpster. I have similar plans for a futon that is currently in my living room but I don't have room in the budget for a replacement. Sigh.
Throw your horrible couches out. It is the best feeling ever!
