I'm really glad you were able to preserve the memories of this cherished sofa.<br /><br />My sister and I were discussing the merits of reupholstering vs. buying new this afternoon. In this case, of course, buying new was not an option. Seeing the upholstery job, though, has bolstered my argument for doing it.<br /><br />I hope you had a good weekend, and I hope you and your family are able to enjoy this beautiful "new" sofa for decades to come.Alycia Nicholshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14690591304562176674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8357139271305269155.post-86772040939862841802014-06-27T07:10:56.415-04:002014-06-27T07:10:56.415-04:00My sofas are beat down.

When my mom passed away, my sister was given her sofa and I got her table. These items are so precious from our loved ones, aren't they? I'm glad you got to keep your mom's sofa and did a little makeover on it. It looks great.<br /><br />~SheriRed Rose Alleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02685747099912989862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8357139271305269155.post-80227097624061428452014-06-24T14:41:10.178-04:002014-06-24T14:41:10.178-04:00
