For Beverly's Pink Saturday I thought I would show some stages in a transformation of my lower living room and some added touches of pink. The first shot shows one ugly, UGLY couch (one of a pair of couches). I played with covering it up and with pillow combinatioins.
The two I decided I liked best were the ones below
Right now I have it as below , but I do like the one above too. The greenish pillows in the one below tie it in better with the rug.....but I am still thinking.
FRANKLY anything is better than the original couch!!!! I usually have it covered with something! Have a happy pink Saturday!! To go back to Beverly's for more link ups on Saturday go here: http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/
It's a couch make-over! :)
ReplyDeleteKim, I think I like the one with the white pillows, but that's just me. I love slipcovers, and I need to do this with my sofa, too! Good job!

I love them both!
ReplyDeleteI loved seeing pictures of your Spindle Cottage--I could just take a nap on your sofa!
It's SO cozy!
Hugs,

Yep, I think you made the right choice. You have a lovely home.

The new set up is very tres chic!!! Gotta keep those fabulous floral pillows! Happy Pink Saturday nannykim!
ReplyDeleteI love your sofa makeover...and I am crazy about all of those spindles!!! Guess what....I LOVE that black (dk br.?) cabinet in the background, too! I haven't done a lot of hula hooping this week...my gr. girl just arrived and she snatched hers up and tried to get it going....she's too little for the size I got for her, but she doesn't care! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Pk Sat!!! dana
I love it with the green pillows and a throw on each arm! And with that pretty yellow you have on the walls, it's so perfect for summer!
ReplyDeleteHappy Pink Saturday!

Hi Kim! I like them both! Your home is so pretty and warm and welcoming! Thanks so much for popping in to see me.
ReplyDeleteBe a sweetie,
Shelia :)
Looks like a lovely place to curl up with a good book or Victoria magazine and a cup of tea.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I love your round table and the gorgeous vase of flowers.
Have a lovely weekend,

Your couches look wonderful now, really wonderful! The pillows all look wonderful however you place them. Your home is very cottagey, like me you have yellow walls. I love them because they are so sunshiney! Your cottage is very sweet. Speaking of sweet, I adore your header, your kiddos are just darling.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Cindy S
How the room brightens up when you cover your couch! And the floral pillows add a warm touch. I love the photo where you can see the skirted round table with the flowers that perfectly match the pillows.
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a great week!
Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI think it looks nice! Either way!
ReplyDeleteWow! The couch looks great. What a transformation!
ReplyDeleteIt was fun to look at the process of coming up with your favorite combination. Your home looks cozy and inviting.
ReplyDeleteAaaaah, I love the couch, sugar! I'm getting new white duck slipcovers soon as they're made. Squeeeeeal.... I can't wait to see them also. There's just something about white slipcovers that say "shabby chick" to me. Darling blog and give that military man a hug from this old lady, chickee! I salute him and thank him for protecting our country and family.
