Ok, it has been about 8 years since we purchased our sofa/sectional and put in new carpeting. The sectional was getting pretty thread bare and the recliners didn't work anylonger. So we decided to look for some new furniture. I tried all the furniture stores in town... they want at LEAST $700 for a sofa. Then I remembered that my friends John and Roxanne had gotten a great couch at Big Lots. (sorry if that was supposed to be a secret you two!). SO, I went to big lots... and guess what??? They have a lot of VERY nice furniture. AND the sofa's were under $400. They are made by Simmons.. they are just last years stuff I guess. Anyway, we are now the proud owners of new furniture! We got a sofa and two big overstuffed chairs and an ottoman. They are SUPER Comfy! Bekah has already decided they are great reading chairs!
I am thinking that we need a second ottoman... but we LOVE our new room. Now I just need to paint...

The look really nice. I love the ottoman.
It's gorgeous. Love, Love, LOVE the colors!
Nettie...is this SCARY or what? this afternoon (Yes!! TODAY!!) I was thinking about you, and thinking that it would be great if you had some new furniture (especially a couch that is not challeging to us short-legged relatives!..you know, one that doesn't make my feet stick straight out like I was a four-year old if I sit clear back...sigh..) And I go out on the Web to see what's going on in Santa Maria, and VIOLA! new furniture. You want I should visualize new carpet, now?
Seriously, if you wait to paint until we get down there mid-October, I can help. Just let me know so I can throw my painting duds into the back of the Pathfinder!
