New Living Room Set

Well, we bought the new set today. Sofa, oversized chair, which is known in the furniture world as "a chair and a half" and an ottoman. Blue Denim fabric - exactly like what I have now. We were able to pick out of several hundred fabrics for the main upholstery and the toss pillows. I ended up getting a really pretty red tapestry with a fringy trim for the pillows. Almost looking like a persian rug. I think it will look really nice in my living room. I have an amoir that I bought in Durango, Colorado a few years back that my TV sits in and I have a wall of crosses - its kindof southwesty meets mexican I think. I also have a hand made & hand painted & stamped tin & tile mirror that I bought custom from Mexico a few years ago too.

We did go look at kitchen cabinets but WOW...too many to choose from! We pretty much have the color of what we want down, but the styles and different companies to choose from is just mind boggling. We looked in Home Depot & Lowes today but will go to a few cabinet makers just to see what they have to offer. I think it was about two years ago that we got an estimate on the cabinets we fell in love with & the Silestone countertops and it came to something like $15,000. But that was also adding on to the kitchen, which we are no longer doing. Right now I'm missing one door to the cabinet under the sink because one of my dogs decided to eat it for dinner one night. I'm sick of looking at it. Its been that way for a while now because my husband and I can never agree on anything....especially when it comes to decorating the house. I think we are finally going to pull the trigger on it this time though because its just a drag going into the kitchen. Its depressing.
