This color is not as light-blue
(or "Carolina blue" as you North Carolinians might want to call it)
as it looks in this picture.
It's more of a greenish-grayish blue.

Taupe
We're not sure which color we would want. We initially liked the bluish one (it's called "Hydra"), but then I made the point that it would be much safer to use a Hydra-like color on the walls in the living room (since it's a color we like right now) and get the taupe-colored couch. That way, when our tastes change down the road, we can change the whole color scheme of the room and our couch will still match.
We haven't made a decision yet, although there are many perks. It's micro-suede, and for $59.99 they will spray it with a sealant that comes with a 3-year guarantee of no stains. If we get a stain we can't remove in the next 3 years, they replace the couch for free. It is also fairly inexpensive and on sale right now (~16% off), and they are willing to hold it for us for free until our house is built. All definite pluses.
We have until Tuesday to decide. We'll see. I don't want to jump into anything too quickly, but it does seem like a very good option. I think it will also go well with our brown micro-suede couch we currently have.
What do you think?
Hi dear:) If it helps, Kelly and I ordered a tan couch, and we are planning on painting our walls either a cheerful green, blue or yellow. Kinda like this: http://www.potterybarn.com/gift/thm/THMBENRCK/index.cfm
ReplyDeleteWe figured we can switch out the colors anytime by just changing the pillows and paint (which is WAY cheaper then buying all new furniture)!
XOXO, Lael:)
Thanks Lael. :)
ReplyDeleteThat room from Pottery Barn is really pretty. I like it. :)
Jessica and I vote the taupe! She was a couch of similar material with the sealant and it's worked great.
