Today's load...

I am the Queen of the Ottomans!!! The blue and yellow ones arrived today and they are every bit as wonderful as the green one. Here's the trick. We are going to buy a chair for the living room out of one of these fabrics. And, frankly, for my money, any of them would be perfect. Here's the challenge.

The purple in the bottom left of the picture is the love seat. The swatch on top of it is what the chaise is going to be covered in. The blue is a bit less turquoisey and a bit more blue blue - the mustard is pretty much like you see it and the green as well. Oh and Jake is just as gray as he looks. (Camera comes out, Jake is ready.) It's Sheri's job to pick the chair color. There is no way I could decide.

Oh and the chair that we pick (we have it narrowed down to 2 - Sheri's favorite (which I do like) and my favorite - anyway both of them will be partially covered in another fabric (by me) that will go with everything else there in the living room. Oh, heck, why am I being so cute, here are the chair's - you'll have to imagine the color...

My chair (mine swivels!)

Here's the inside of the green ottoman - that's two full afghan's full of yarn with room to spare!

I think all the colors are grand but I gotta be honest Susan - neither of those chairs look like the kind of chair you can curl up with a book or some knitting needles and have a nice relaxing sunday with.

I am TOTALLY a Big Ole Cushy Square Chair and Ottoman type of Girl - not that I have one of those chairs - but I've got a couch and a love seat like that and did a do-it-yerOwnDamnSelf ;-) ottoman coffee table using an old coffee table - wasn't any cheaper than those out there probably cause I bought thicker than I needed to foam but I know better for next time.

But man oh man am I jealous of the bright exciting colors. I'm loving watching your makeover progress.

Oh no! The chair in question is NOT for lounging in or watching TV in or curling up in. That's what I have the chaise lounge for. The love seat isn't going to be all that comfy either - for long term serious sitting but both it and the chair will be perfect, I think, for company and auxiliary sitting.

The colour combos you're working with now are fab!

[susandennis]

Thanks. They sure do make me smile.

Swivel! Swivel!

Think about the possibilities! Kitty in chair, the SWIVEL! Muahahaha!

The round one you like looks more fun.

Sheri's chair looks like a torture device - I dunno about others but I would be uneasy sitting in it just on looks alone. :P The other one is not a lounger but looks like you could sit in it without injury, at least.

I like the swivel-y one.

I like the one you like best. Visually more interesting.

I love, love the colors, and am loving your redo!!!

I have to ask though, just how much seating do you really need? Are we all being invited over for a condo redo warming party?

This room is only big enough for one Queen sweetie! Peddle your wares elsewhere! ;)

Beautiful new stuff by the way!
