That is probably the most fabulous couch I have ever seen! Orange is my favorite color and if I could find a fabulous orange couch I would decorate an entire room around it! I settled for a dark gray couch but the room is loaded with orange and teal. In fact I may just have to spray the coffee table orange! That would do- until I find a fabulous couch like yours. Reading your blogs from the beginning so I am looking forward to seeing what the room looks like now. And I’m not peaking.

Mandi, I ordered a stencil from Royal Design Studios and loved it!!!! It was easy to use once I got the hang of it. Thanks for the tip!

I found my eight foot long green crushed velvet tufted back sofa with shiny little metal casters a few months ago….it just makes me happy every time I look at it.

This couch is SO amazing. Both the color and the style are perfect! So jealous of your find! 🙂

YOU love the couch, that’s what matters. I like it, it would depend on the height of the back if it would make it here. Hubs is 6’1′ and HAS to be able to comfortably rest his head on the top of the back. Sometimes I’m glad he has bad posture, I’d never find furniture for him, lol. We just saw, in an upscale consignment store, a tall-backed loveseat, chair pair that reclined in orange! We have no place for them or I think he would have looked for the price :-). They ARE nice. Enjoy your couch! Janet

I love the couch and I too have a vintage couch. Mine is green though like 60’s avocado green. It’s long and in great condition outside of being a little faded. Got it at our local ReStore for 30 bucks! And not a single broken spring woohoo!

Soooooo I uploaded the pictures of the couch reveal Tuesday, then my computer crashed and died! I tried to get it fixed, but my repair man went out of business!!!! I erased my card already so I’m HOPING they can get everything off the computer when I find someone to take it too… AFTER I get back from a week long vacation in AZ!!!! I might call tomorrow around lunch time when we’re passing through St. George to see if your free for lunch!

Yay! I am so glad the couch has found a good home! The couch is only on its third owner. The original owner was Hazel the was the original owner of our house in the 1940s (Sugarhouse area). She raised four children in this house with one bathroom and no shower. We bought the house after she passed and her grown children left the couch to us. It always symbolized a different way of life and raising a family. It was hard to part with it, but so thrilled it has found celebrity status in Mandy’s home. I love the idea of naming the couch. My vote? Hazel.

This is SO perfect! I have to tell you, Mandi, since you know about my hubs. The weekend after he passed our nephew got married. I know! Craziness, yet perfection in His way. My new niece went totally art deco – damask in all the details, black/white w/touches of red. But here was the really cool part – ok, ONE of the cool parts – instead of just chairs for the ceremony, which was held in a hotel ballroom, for our huge family, she rented GORG curved sofas and settees in white. Beautiful tufted backs. Some curved, some like yours above. So unique and so . . . her.

Work that couch, Girl!
