The tale of the Ikea Sofas...

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...

Before...

and After...

The Family Room has new, comfy sofas.
We will show pictures as soon as we can get Clara's Husband off them!!!

This week we are loving...

We couldn't wait until Thursday, the day that we usually post our week's favorites because this week we are really, totally, absolutely loving:

The super cute,

...perfectly shabby-ed,...

...vintage cart that Clara game me for Mother's Day...

Tons of possibilities with this cutie: in the bathroom holding TP or towels, in the bedroom holding magazines...but to be honest I don't want anybody to touch it, so for now is in my entryway holding vintage pretties and just doing what he does best: looking beautiful!!!

Clara's new love is: the perfect piece of furniture for "that wall in the living room". She tried different tables, different arrangements, but this is the winner!

Worth the wait!....she found it...

...she finally found it...the best antique dresser with empire lines and original white paint...

...perfect linens and silverware storage!

How about you?...What are you loving this week?
