Out with the old......
In with the new...
No, we didn't get rid of the grandson, or even the dogs(although I'd like to get rid of the dogs)......but....we did get a new sofa!! The very first BRAND new one we've ever bought. In the past, we've either bought used, or had them given to us. This time, we went NEW! It's a LazyBoy, and has recliners on each end. You can also see our floor here. We've had a rug on it almost since we laid it, but I got tired of the dog hair on the rug, so rolled it up and put it in storage. Makes the room look so much bigger! We went with a neutral colored sofa, because we figure it will be a long long time before we buy another. Now I'm trying to decide what color pillows I want. When I make pillow covers, I'm also going to make valances to match. Can't decide whether I want to go burnt orange, or just go scrappy with it all to give it country charm. Also debated on muted red white and blue stars. Right now, we have 2 green recliners in the room, but they are being replaced with just one tan recliner, so the possibilities are limitless. I think what I'd like to do eventually, is to have a different theme for different times of the year. Wouldn't that be fun! Change out pillow covers and a valance and have a whole new decor! Hmmm.....now I'm wondering where I'm supposed to find the TIME to make this into a reality. HAHAHA

Nice couch! I like the country charm idea. BIG QUESTION: Are you going to let the pooches on it? We won't let our cat sleep on our couch because I hate those nasty hairballs. (She gets to do the hairballs on hubby's computer chair! ;-)
PS) Pamela is 11
The plan is NO...the dogs are not allowed on the couch. We've been working with them for over a month trying to keep them off the old one..but old habits die hard, so it's still a bit of a battle. We'll get there, though...or...Does anyone want a couple of dogs? hehe
Nice couch; I love how changing the furniture make a room feel new all over again!
Love your new couch.. I'd go with lots of colors for the pillows, kind of a scrappy quilted kind.
