That looks so comfortable. I love it!

[Dutchie]

That is a great sofa! We also have a similar one with giant ottoman, which we use with a large tray on it as a coffee table. To be honest, I would have preferred an actual table but it does look nice.

Why? I'd like to swap our coffee table for an ottoman with a tray on top

I'm going to hazard a guess at kids being the reason? :))

The sectional and and Chicky's chair look super comfy.

Yes, I was going to go with “boys who wrestle and perform indoor parkour”.

:lol: All of the above! Also, the tray has raised edges, so you can't just slide your drink towards you and we've had several instances of the bottom of a glass catching on the edge and spilling over the ottoman. It does look nice though!

That looks really nice, Dutchie! Ours does not. We bought it in a rush during the pandemic and didn't actually measure for size. It's where our 100 pound sheepdog sleeps during the day so we can't even use a tray. :))

[ParisGal]

I see! I'd have naively thought it'd be better for kids :lol: We like to put our feet up.

[Little My]

My reasoning for not getting the matching ottoman was more to do with pets than kids. :)) Plus we already had a coffee table.

Well we opened up the packaging and found that the woman in the store ordered us the wrong colour. It's actually the cream colour of the ottoman in the photo. So hopefully we get a call back from customer service today to remedy the situation. So disappointing!

[Dutchie]

Oh no LM, how disappointing! Hope they get it sorted quickly.

Five, that is quite a fancy dog bed! :lol:

[FiveO'Clock]

I hope the customer service is fixing that swiftly for you, LM!

Here is Benson's day bed

[Morganna]

Beautiful Benson

[Estrella]

Oh, Benson

[bramblerose]

I love the sofas and Chicky's chair. Have you made a decision about the sideboard yet, Est?

[Estrella]

We have literally just ordered it. Delivery will be in a week.

[Little My]

You may well get your delivery before I get mine, Est! We are expecting a call today, though our upcoming week is crazy busy.

Benson! He is (mostly) the same colour as the ottoman, so he blends in well.

[Estrella]

It’s not the best photo as it’s a bit dark in my bedroom now, but this was my Mother’s Day present from the kids.

[Little My]

Very nice! I like that.

[Marth]

That's a lovely MD gift, Est.

I've finished painting the sewing box I was given by a neighbour. It goes with the yellow one I painted some years ago. This one will house my embroidery threads
