Second thoughts about our sofa

A few weeks ago, I mentioned here that we were planning on re-upholstering our lounge room setting...

We chose a great fabric but after some reflection, we've changed our mind and would like to buy an entirely new (or old) suite. Re-upholstering is a costly exercise - a perfect solution if you want to keep something forever...and we thought our current sofa is not our 'forever' sofa.

It might be time to upgrade to something a little more substantial...if we can find the right setting Jason and I can agree on.

That's the tricky part.

Jason and I love the slimline range that is sold by Angelucci's in Melbourne and think it would look great in the Sow's Ear.



A modular three-seater sofa from The Modern Furniture store has also grabbed my eye.

And I also like the look of this sofa from Great Dane...until I saw the price! It's probably too much out of our price bracket although I love its shape.



Lots of food for thought as we contemplate our next sofa. Although it will be sad to see the old one go....

  1. I've been thinking of a new sofa too recently. Our two seater of your setting is our sofa, and it's starting to get wobbly which makes me nervous. I looked at the Freedom website the other night and was quite surprised at where Freedom is heading design-wise. There was a brown leather sofe which I really dug. A good sofa is an investment.

  8. We all love the orange it seems so Jason will have to bow to the masses. Perhaps you should host a giveaway for the old one. My husband bought me a red couch for my birthday last year that I did not want but he did. Disturbingly I have grown to like it even though it is new and not from an oppy. Go figure!

  11. Do you find the low back sofas comfortable? I love the orange one and the gre expensive one of course, but always wonder if they are good for lounging on?
