New Couches

I've wanted some new couches for a while now. I picked up the ones we've been using at a yard sale for $20. They're really low to the ground and the cushions won't stay in place. I'm always trying to adjust them to look presentable. I decided we definitely needed some new ones after Michael put a hole in the bottom of our couch with his foot.
Knowing we couldn't afford brand new couches and also knowing how often my Mom shops at thrift stores, I asked her to keep her eye out for us. My awesome Mom went above and beyond and started hitting up stores just to see if there were any couches better than ours. Wednesday, we scored big time when she found a tan microfiber couch and love seat at Pack Rats. They were both in really good condition, and we were able to get the pair for only $400! I was so excited.
After bringing them home, and setting them up, they looked a little bare. We needed some throw pillows. Today I went with my Mom and Grace to look for some. We got some black ones at Bed, Bath and Beyond and some with a floral pattern at Burlington. Check it out.


I uploaded two pictures of our new couch with different throw pillow arrangements. Which do you like better?



I'm so grateful for our new couches. I'm in love with them. I'm also grateful for a husband who let me spend the money to get a new couch and love seat. Thank you Michael Bear. I love you!
