Ok, so I keep thinking I'm finished with the living room but then I see something and want to switch it all up! My latest move was changing out loveseats. I had a Cushman wood sofa in this spot but it just wasn't very comfortable for "crapping out," as we call it around here. So when Brian and I saw this cushy sofa at GW, we brought it home.
It was in pristine condition. Love the shape of it but the stripes in the upholstery were a bear to cover. I had to double layer the slipcover (that was a new one). It was a lot of extra work and UNfun!
Here it is all finished. I think the piping really accentuates the shape of the arms. Plus, Olive likes it..so..that's important. I would hate to not have cat hair all over it.
I really like the curvy legs.
I woke her up..I don't think she cares about my blog.
Look at her pretty green eyes..they match the pillow.
Before, before:
This is the living room with the wooden loveseat..we're moving that to the patio.
After:
I think this looks better and it's SO comfortable!
So I picked up a truckload of furniture last week, literally. The garage is crammed, CRAMMED full. I have to get busy painting..can we add more hours to a day? Let me know if you've figured that out! I'm linking to all the cool parties in the sidebar.
I have a pile of dishes to take care of, so we'll talk soon -

Love it! Great job, the room looks beautiful and yes the cat needs to like it! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great transformation! I have been wanting to do something similar to my couches. I'm wondering, did you use a canvas drop cloth or fabric from the store? ~Lori
ReplyDeletegorgeous, love the slip cover! thanks for sharing this at my party!
ReplyDeleteThank you all for commenting!! I tried to write back to Lori and I'm getting an error message. I wanted to tell you that I used drop cloths from Lowe's. I bleach them out and they turn out very durable and soft. Just fyi! Thanks again for coming by - JenT
