The Ikea sofas looked very good.
They were priced right.
They were slipcovered, perfect for a family!
They fit the family room perfectly.
BUT
The Ikea sofas were NOT comfortable.

THAT'S WHY
After just a few months Clara moved the Ikea sofas to the Living Room...
yeap, the room that nobody uses...

They sure do look good in the living room! How ironic because a friend of mine here in Kuwait had those sofas in a different color and she didn't think they were comfy either, but I thought they were just fine. Of course, I was only ever visiting -- maybe sitting on them all the time would not be comfortable. Have a great day! :) Tammy
Thank You for that chuckle...I've wondered about those sofa's at Ikea.
Glad her husband approves of the New and Improved sofas!!!

That living room is gorgeous! I adore the coffee table - it is tdf fabulous! p.s. my mom didn't like our big, expensive, down-filled couch so it's at the farmhouse, and the ikea couch is in our living room now too!
I like 'em better in there, anyway! Love that glass top table.
Beautiful sofa's and great quote! They look lovely in the livingroom!
hugs,

Clara's living room rocks! I love the cabinet and architectural pieces. Of course, I'm always drawn to the old, chippy paint!
Take care, Sue
A gorgeous living room.....I have the IKEA couches as well and found a perfect solution to the comfort thing. I use the couch base, but use different cushions (that still fit the slip covers) that are stuffed with a much more comfy filling.
Happy day.

They look gorgeous in there!
I love the room's new look! I actually like Ikea sofas. We have two because we have two toddler boys so the price was right and who cares what they spill on them! =)
They sure look pretty in that room though! I have heard this about those sofas..bummer! At least they look good! enjoying the rain?
LOL, Clara's hubs need to break the new ones in good first!

First...what a great saying! Second love the sofa's in the living room and third...I am looking past the sofa's at the cabinet...Love the blue painted inside and love the wooden elements hanging on the wall! What were they from...they are awesome :)
I love what Ikea can bring to a home for the right price. No it's not perfect but it sure does look great.
Hope you guys are doing well.
Shea says thanks so much
