Something very exciting happened on the weekend. Pammy (my mum) and I were going about our vintage chair scouting business, when a new couch and matching chair popped up and said 'buy me'. How could I resist? It was in such good condition. It was the perfect size for our lounge room. It was half price for one day only. I simply had to buy it right? And the big A was good enough to say 'honey if it makes you happy then go for it'. Whatta guy. It's being delivered to Pammy's in two weeks then we'll start the process of recovering and organising for our current couch (aka Big Brown) to be sold on ebay. First off, here are some pics of the new couch. Apologies for the bad quality, I took it on my blackberry.
And now, here are some references for the coverings. First up the couch covering. I like the idea of a simple neutral like the grey sofa shown here...
And next, some thoughts on fabrics for the matching chair. I love the idea of having a pattern that pops.
