Okay, so anyone who has been to our house knows of our vinyl chairs that sit in front of our windows in the living room. Anyway, they have served us well over the past almost 4 years that we've lived here, but lately they were looking kind of rough. The main problem is due to the fact that they were vinyl and we do have 2 wonderful felines inhabiting our home. The tops of the chairs were pretty much shredded by Oscar's and Lexie's claws. They took a liking to the material and it became impossible to break them from the bad habit of using the tops of our chairs as a scratching post. So, yesterday Abe and I decided we would venture to a few furniture stores and finally pick out a loveseat for that area to replace the old chairs. We were super lucky! The first store we went to was Value City Furniture and the moment we walked in, they just happened to have a chocolate brown loveseat on clearance! It was seriously the first thing we saw as we walked in! So we did a quick walk around, and decided to just get it! It was perfect for our living room and an excellent deal! While we were there, and since we saved so much on the loveseat, we went ahead a purchased a storage ottoman that'll be in tomorrow. I've always wanted one and since we went in expecting to spend a certain amount, I was able to convince Abe to go ahead and get me an ottoman for the price we thought we were going to pay for just the loveseat! Some pics of course of the new furniture will follow. It is super comfy, and I feel like it makes out living room a lot more homey and inviting. Let me know what you think!
Of course the kids had to try it out yesterday when they got home..Alex laid acorss it and said "ahhh...yes!" lol
I was worried it might look weird having 2 different colored pieces of furniture, but I actually love it! And yes, Oscar has been banned (and sprayed with a water bottle everytime he tries to jump on it.) That is why he is stretched out on the floor!
