Sofa envy by Nashville Interior Designer, Amanda Burdge

  
David Demattei and Patrick Wade

These days the proverbial beige sofa has really lost my interest. Now, I know that it is a tried and true favorite, and a "go-to"must have for any home, but after ten years of solid beige and brown sofas, I'm ready to move on. As I was doing research for a new client, (who LOVES color) I decided a bold sofa was just what we needed. Why on earth have I not been doing this? Here were a few of my favs!

Really are these not gorgeous? How great would it be to walk into your room and see a vibrant orange sofa? Or a bright acid green one? Just the thought of it brings a smile to my face. I think it's high time to buy a new sofa and add some flavor to the house, who's with me?!

  3. I am with you on this {personally} as I'm tired of the brown sofa's in my great room and den. I am, however, glad that I got a washable white slipcover for my living room sofa, which was a dark blue background with a large floral pattern. While the blue as a solid would still have been liveable, the floral really dated it.

  5. I'm with you too; I have both beige and brown sofas and I'm tired of both.

    I recently ordered an avocado green velvet sofa and I can't wait to get it delivered.

  6. i'm with you in spirit, but not in reality, unfortunately. since mine is only a few years old, i'll be needing to get a few more years out of it, unless i happen upon something fabulous and reupholster it.

    btw, love #2

  7. You did this just to show me all the sofas I cannot afford.

    I am actually looking at one in cherry red.
    Will draw in my kitchen walls.

    Really loving one that is a navy/lime print but don't think I need yet another color in that small house. heh

  13. Such addition shall greatly improve specific location detection typically, in addition to detecting location distance relative to
    other objects. Both the displays are easily among the best,
    with the i - Phone 4 marginally leading the way in terms of display quality and the
    Galaxy S winning the size battle. Odin is thought to be preparing to roll
    into the market with the new Android 4.

    to grab market share from other OEMs. I make a copy of every tune I've ever liked on my iphone. Though it cannot offer you emailing, application downloading, etc.

  17. The unibody looks amazing and the rigid aluminum body is better than any
    we have seen. 1: The $2,250 Swarovski-studded 32GB i - Pad, 5 Ridiculously Expensive
    Apple Gadgets You Won't Believe Are Real, and $20,000 Diamond Studded Apple IPad, the Most Expensive IPad Yet. Go with the Pro if you need any kind of external connectivity options.

  19. For example, when user is writing a text to someone,
    but suddenly they decide that they wish to talk instead.
    Note 2 adopts the same cover material of Samsung Galaxy S3 to make its rear cover, hence strengthening fashionable aesthetic feelings, but devoid of flexibility that Note has.
    The previous two handsets being the Samsung Nexus and the Nexus One.

    The i - Phone's retina display is stunning: its ultra-thin, feather-light design and world class build quality are unequalled, and its excellent camera and software upgrade to i - OS 6 make the i - Phone 5 a top pick for 2012.
