The Red Monster is back!

Well, sort of. So as I posted previously, my sister has inherited my old comfy red couch. I loved that couch! And in addition to its comfiness, one of the other qualities that attracted me to it was its color - it was a beautiful red!

So... My other couch is not nearly as comfortable, but it is still a couch and in relatively good condition (well, as good as it gets with 2 years of a toddler who inevitably wanted to stand and jump on it). However, for years I lived with it in its ugly green cover. In my old apartment, its color wasn't too bad and it lived quite happily in the sun room area. However, once it got into this apartment, it really was a hideous green.


Once I decided to keep the couch, I knew I needed a new color makeover for it. So again, off to IKEA! It's a good thing for me that after 5 or so years, they still make the Klippan couch and in the same sizes. So, ta-da! My new couch color:

Sorry, a bit of a mess, but look at how pretty the red is (well, the actual red is actually much more beautiful in person. I guess you'll just have to see it for yourself to tell)! It's almost like I have a piece of my old couch back...
