oh Andreas, it is you i adore

the best part of checking the mail....  is getting the anthro catalogue.  walking back to the house, i flipped through the usual pretty dresses.  and then.  and then i saw this little beauty and suddenly it's all i can think about.




 



its pretty much perfect.  great colors to work with, great pattern to hide the wear and tear of kids and dogs, durable fabric, great lines.  beautiful details.  looks so cozy!  the last picture shows how richly textured and colored the textile is - the pattern could go nordic or look more southwestern (dare i use the term).  this sofa is one of those great pieces that makes a statement without screaming it.  very easy to work an entire scheme around it, or it set in down in neutrals of wintry whites.  there aer so many colors to pull from - my favorite is the orange.  it'd really be perfect in my living room.  santa, do you hear me?!

i could work this into just about room.  check back for an inspiration board featuring my newest love, Andreas.

sofa envy

i have sofa envy.  very simple.  i long for a chesterfield in a moody color, in a sumptuous fabric.

thackery chesterfield


this is the kind of sofa that invites you in and says "come on in, stay for a while.  get cozy" 
and i want it.  love the color, love the low back.  love how comfortable it looks.
