vintage couch

Last fall, I found this couch on ksl classifieds. I convinced Adam to drive an hour with me to check it out and help bring it home if I liked it. And liked it, I did. I love the look of tufted furniture.

Its been sitting in my living waiting for me to go figure out what I need to do to get it recovered. Eventually it will sit right across from my desk in my office downstairs. I'm thinking a gray velvet (not sure if I should go more silver gray or charcoal gray) with the wood painted glossy white. Any thoughts?

Charcoal! It would be sooo inviting!

I agree charcoal...but I sort of like the color now...you could steam clean it and paint the wood a darker color.

whatever you choose, it will look great!

Charcoal, certainly, with the white wood and mustard yellow accent pillows. Mmm hmm..

Silver! I love a dove grey and white combo. But it looks like I am outvoted.

I don't know if I'm too late, but I like the silver, with red and white accents.
