Alright, alright I guess I need to do a little explaining with the pillow post. NO, we did not get new furniture...yet! Last Saturday we spent the day in Indy going from store to store and came up with ONE (that's right, only ONE) couch that we could agree on. But not only did we just "like" it, we completely fell in love head-over-heels with the style, feel, look, fabric...you name it we were sold!!! So, we got all the necessary information, headed back to Lafayette and pulled into our local Kittles. We asked the salesman if we could order two couches in the style and we were so proud of ourselves, we had the SKU # ready, the fabric name, the fabric color name, the matching pillow name, etc. The salesman was SO excited for he also saw "SALE!" in his near future until..... DA DA DUM...... it seems as though the couch is NO longer available, the manufacturer dropped the couch so we could only buy what is on the floor and in limited quantities. Mind you want is on the floor is a hunter green, I wanted "Doe".
So, with our heads hanging low, we walked out of the store, no deal, no sale and virtually back to square one.
So, we proceeded to hit all our furniture stores in Lafayette for one last attempt "find" what we were looking for. We came upon one couch. Hence, the pillow picture from below. It's similar in style, similar in fabric, etc and for a better price. It seemed to be a little darker than what I wanted but upon bringing the sample home, I do think it will work.
I wanted to e-mail the picture to my sister for opinion and my e-mail wasn't working so I thought I would "post" it and delete it later. Only I forgot!
But of course, when you are ready to make a large purchase of living room and family room furniture, new rugs, etc. then your VW beetle will start giving you fits. It is rather "sick" (lights, dash, fan, etc.) so it's going to the doctor tomorrow. Therefore, the furniture has been put on hold until we find out the damages!
