English Arm Rolled Sofas

  1. Kim says:

    I'm IN love w/English Arm Rolled Sofas too! We're thinking about doing two sofas facing each other in our LR. I'm dying to get EAR sofas, but I made the mistake of saying we have to have arms that the ballerinas can lean against comfortably. Now he balks every time I show him one w/EAR. 🙁

    I haven't heard of that site, but there is a lot of buzz right now about Custom Sofa Design on the web. I looked through their sofas for you and these are your best bet:
    Aubrey

    Carol

    Paris

    Voltaire

    There is more info about these sofas at Little Green Notebook and Young House Love.

    I hope that helped – maybe you will get a "yes" after all! I love those sofas as well but could never fork over that much cash for one!

    Jon please let her get one- you know she will bug you about it till you give in 🙂

    (Camila, I hope you get your sofa)

    I haven't heard of that site either but I have heard of Custom Sofa Design that Sarah mentioned. We're going to visit my sister next month in Santa Monica and it was on my list to check out. I'll let you know. They seem very similar to Sofa Craft.

    I love all these images! I just bought a new sofa and chair for our living room last fall from a local furniture store (they are Rowe), and I went with the English arm. I love, love love them. I hope your hubby caves and you can get one!

    I love roll-arm sofas too!!! When I bought my sofa ~5 years ago, I went back and forth between that style and the camelback one at Restoration Hardware. I ended up with the camelback but still have a soft spot for the roll-arm! – maybe my next sofa. 🙂 And you should totally get one. 🙂

    Love this type of couch! Didn't know it had a name. And I had no idea Lauren's was from CraigsList. What?!? Amazing.

    (probably one too many, but I can't part with them!) and one in my basement

    all curtesy of craigslist! The first one was free but needed to be reupholstered so I made a slipcover for it. I love them all! They can be found on CL, but you have to be really patient and be prepared to pounce!

  15. Scandinavian Chic says:

    I love mine very much 🙂 Definitely a classic! It's called a Howard here in Norway.

  16. Devon says:

    Ooh, google "couch seattle." I think it might be a perfect fit for you both style-wise and price-wise. They've got some amazing stuff for some amazing prices.

    Hope you get your couch!!!

ON THE BLOG

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.

Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.

On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.

Fall is the perfect season to host an outdoor movie night in your backyard! It’s that time of year when outdoor furniture is still outside and it gets dark earlier than the summer which means your little kiddos can enjoy the movie night as well. It’s so nice to transform your backyard with cozy blankets, […]

round up of budget friendly bar carts

Can you believe it’s already November? Before we know it Thanks No. 1 Modern bar cart with patterned sides that looks great as is, but would also look amazing painted a pop of color! Plus it’s only $157. No. 2 This lucite bar cart is a personal favorite of mine. Look at those chic lines! […]

For the longest time our backyard was mainly just grass and a little small area where we laid down some pavers so that we could set out a little plastic table/chairs during the summer. Not exactly ideal for entertaining. For the past couple of years we have wanted to build a deck and enjoy the […]
