A Whole New Look!

Well our poor little sofas in the Front room had taken a beating over the years from our dog and time. Anyway, we have been looking for months trying to find something we liked, but everything out there was overstuffed, brown or tan sofas. I really liked the look of my sofas. So one day, Derek came home with a solution to my dilema. We should reupholster them. I was a skeptic, because they weren't really expensive sofas when we bought them and I didn't think they were worth it. So we had the people who would do the job come and look at them to see if they were worth doing. They said the frames were good and sturdy and since they were the style we wanted, why not. So the next objective was to find a fabric we wanted. Guess what! Dark green is not in style right now. I could have gone for a moss green or a light green, but that is not what I wanted. So after much deliberation we went in a whole different direction than what I was expecting.We went blue. Now that was a whole different direction. Now I am in the midst of making everything go together. I hate decorating. But the reupholsters did a great job and they feel like brand new couches. I just have to get used to the new color.
