Not just one, actually, but a leather sofa, a leather chair, and a chocolate brown velvet loveseat. Not used, but clean and new, with that "new furniture" smell! I have to wait a few weeks for them to arrive, but DD and I went pillow shopping -- just reconnaissance, or so I thought! My DD is turning into a style maven of her own (post to follow), and we brought these home for approval. I think I see some parallels between what pleases me in my wardrobe and what I'm drawn to here. Some observations:</p> <p>1. The drapes are a set I made in my 20s - 1989 to be exact. I found $4 a yard fabric and lined them, like my Mama taught me. They have hung in west facing windows for more than twenty years, and, while they're far more "country" than I would choose now, I love the botanical nature of the flowers, their colors and their sheer determination to flourish for decades. There may be a day to choose something a little more modern, but for now, I keep them, enjoying the fact that, as a young woman, I didn't just buy off the rack, but worked for what suited me most on a budget.</p> <p>2. This cheerful pillow echoes the print of the pillows. Maybe it's not quite sophisticated enough for a parlor, but it does lighten up the mood of the antique walnut altar chair we call "the throne." </p> <p>3. The green sofa is going bye-bye (chocolate loveseat in it's place), but the pillows are new. An example of pattern mixing, and my love of texture and grounded, saturated, color.</p> <p>4. DD with the pillow that doesn't quite go, but that she won't give up for anything. It feels even better than it looks, like brushing against rose petals, but it's a little boudoir. Might end up in my boudoir -- or hers (lol)! </p>
