Too Good to Pass Up

Y'all! We bought a sofa this weekend! Sight unseen, never sat on, clear across the world but we I just fell in love over a computer screen!

Pottery Barn

I wasn't even considering a sofa like this for our living room. I have always loved chesterfields (even more after admiring my friend, Jenn's, new addition!) but never thought I could afford one or be lucky enough to run across one. But this past week, I found a Craigslist ad for this sexy, tufted, extra large, sofa that has now changed all of my plans! It's in brand new condition, rarely used, and (in my opinion) will only get better with age! 

Pottery Barn

I know finding a great deal on Craigslist is nothing new, but Texarkana's Craigslist NEVER has anything good! So when I saw this Pottery Barn Grand Chesterfield Sofa pop up for almost half price, I had to act quick!! Our lovely Aunt Nancy went to scope it out, did all the negotiating for us and he'll even be waiting for us in our living room when we get home (thanks again, Nancy)! I'm so in love and can't wait to see this piece in person! Here is some inspiration photos of some sexy chesterfields strutting their stuff!

My brain is filled with ideas for our living room mood board that now includes this sofa! Check back soon to see how he fits in! 

Tell me about your Craigslist surprises!  Anyone have a chesterfield they love? Or bought a couch before without seeing or sitting on it?

How Early is {too} Early?

Just how early is too early to start decorating for Christmas? I have had the itch to start spreading the Christmas joy around the house and it is not even Halloween yet! I love the rustic glam idea for decorating this year- neutrals and metallics and maybe a little burlap!  Look at some of my inspiration that I hope to get working on soon!

So when do you start decorating? Am I crazy for wanting to deck the halls already? Maybe I will just start on a few projects and wait until closer to Christmas...
