Our oldest daughter, Erin, recently moved into a new home and had the opportunity to purchase some of the furniture. My heart skipped a beat when I saw her sofa and chairs and couldn’t help thinking how perfect they would be in my home. They didn’t really match her other pieces as she prefers soft, cushy leather.
So…
we traded!
we traded!
Of course, not until I agonized over the decision.
The pieces were beautiful and the colors so right.
But, for my family room?
With 11 grandchildren?
Sticky fingers
leaky sippy cups
I even asked my friends opinion
they all agreed
go for it!
They suggested I spray them with Scotchgard.
Has anyone done that and if so, did it help prevent stains?

what do you think? just right, huh?
The tan sofa and the two patterned chairs came from Erin. The two oval-back chairs belonged to my mom and have been in our bedroom. I took the two garage-sale wing-back chairs that were in this room to our bedroom and they actually look okay there. I also switched the rug under the coffee table with the one in our living room.
We had to wait a couple of weeks to make the switch because of all the snow we have been having.
This is the leather sofa. Nice, big, cushy, soft, easy to wipe off sticky stuff.
With matching over-sized armchair that held lots of wee folks, with an equally over-sized ottoman.

Very nice. But… dark. And, you all know I like light and white.
I even draped a white, crocheted afghan over a large portion of the dark sofa
and added pillows
but, still
dark
now, if you keep looking, you just might see me zip by doing a happy dance
I’m happy
and
Erin’s happy
🙂
