Our New Couch

After nine years of service, it was time to retire our old couch. Cheap to begin with (my first big furniture purchase, on a student budget), it was too small and hardly comfortable. Actually, it was pretty bad - we were well overdue for a new one!

And here it is:

 

We went to have a look at La-Z-Boy two weekends ago, and to be honest, I wasn't expecting much. I had browsed their site online and didn't really see anything I liked. But we saw this sectional - with a chaise like I wanted and a recliner like Pat wanted - and were sold. It was delivered on Saturday and it's a perfect fit! We're really happy - it's SO comfortable! The imitation leather feels really nice and the dark brown fits in well with our decor. 

I'll be sure to share more photos once we have the rest of the room finished. Since a coffee table won't work with the chaise-recliner combo, we're looking to add a nice end table and a removable wooden tray for the end of the chaise. I also plan on stitching up a new pillow cover or two.. I just need to decide on fabric!
