Living room makeover

Remember this post about the steal of a deal couches we bought on Craigslist? We were seriously blessed with those beloved couches. And we really did love them. Alot.

Until they started swallowing our apartment...

We still loved them, just got a little annoyed at their size. And the endless pillow mess. And how they were TOO soft sometimes.

But we never lost our gratitude for the blessing we received at a crucial time.
We just decided it was time for a little update.

Remember how this chair took up our dining room? We sold it awhile ago with the ottoman.

Here is what our living room looked like with our blessing couches.
Big, comfy, and took up alot of real estate.

Here's another angle.

So we saved our pennies, got a bonus, went shopping, and found an amazing deal on this bad boy:

 (unfortunately my camera does not have a wide enough lens and backward zoom to get a great shot. Especially because there's not that much room to back up into to get everything in the picture.)

Chocolate brown microfiber. 

Sectional.

No more pillow mess.

Mmm.

Here is our new living room set up:

We have a ton more space in the middle to stretch out, exercise, and move around in.
It's gloriously amazing.

Oh yeah, and I guess we got something else too...
It's been on hubby's wish list for a long time...
He's literally been saving his pennies just waiting for the day...

So that's the makeover.
And we feel pretty good about it because of the deals we found.
And the money we made selling our old stuff.
And also it's the first brand new furniture things we've ever bought.
Including our bed...that was a hand-me-down.
