both are the same colour- was a maroon, but they are about 15 years old, so they are looking a bit faded and knackered, rather like me:D
 
My sofa is blue and I really hate it..it is not a nice blue and is only a 2 seater.

I have after much researching decided to buy a Tylosand sofa from Ikea and pretty much decided on the purple. Im just waiting for the magic beans to appear now !

I need more info on the sofa (has that been given already)..in order to cast my vote.

:)
 
Don't have a sofa.

Instead, I have three of these - with two footstools. Same colour.

That is pretty cool...we've got an Ikea sofa (2 seater Karlstad) and it's very comfy :)
 
Our sofa is kind of terracotta. I would never have chosen that colour, but it's ok. At least it's plain.

I think chocolate brown sofas are a bit passe, a bit 2005 - if that bothers you (and it probably shouldn't).

I have always wanted a dark red velvet sofa, with shabby old gold fringing, (rather like theatre curtains, iyswim). So on that basis, I voted for red.

are you a smoker?
no, im a smug ex smoker :)

I've gone for the red because it will go with more colours should i change my mind about the colour scheme in my front room
i'm going to find some camp cushions to put on it :D i might get a big stripey/patterned chair as well (what i really want is a rocking chair but I must reign in my granny tendencies -its becoming quite alarming)

i like the sound of a purple soaf, i had a lilac one once, it was a bit of a disaster as it was HUGE and i had matching chairs and lilac walls and the whole thing was a bit much. i love purple though
 
My sofas are brown. Except for the arms which are the colour brown leather sofas go when attacked by cats causing the foam to pour out........
 
mine is sort of an ivory colour, but my next one (soon I hope) is going to be a chesnutty coloured brown leather, if I can find something comfortable in my price range!:(
 
I have two cream leather sofas, which have been clawed by the cats and have biro marks on.

What on earth possessed me to buy them. :confused:
 
I have an old, gnarled, brown leather sofa from, I think, the 1950s with pleat-front seat-cushions and an affixed leather-buttoned back-cushion. I replaced the castors with large oak bun feet, to raise it up a few more inches for us long-leggedy people. My mum keeps trying to give me her 1990s velvet-covered settee (so she can have the excuse to buy another) - alternatively, she could hate my sofa so much that she feels some kind of consumer-driven sorrow for me. I reckon my sofa, which I rescued from a skip, has got another 40 years left in it, so I refuse to buy a new one :D
 
The red one you posted looks lovely so i will be voting red.

How will you lie (hungover) on it ? It looked a little small .
 
I too am a little small :)
I will have to get chairs or something for guests to sit on when they come though or else they'll have to sit on my lap

(i took the picture down because im prone to oversharing on here :o)

well i dont know, the poll is quite close.....


I voted brown because I was answering the question, not encouraging you one way or another. :mad:
I didn't read the OP first you see. :(

Anyway, we have one brown and one purple, so I voted brown, but then to make it more complicated, we do have red WALLS....so a red sofa would have been foolish, whereas the brown goes quite nicely! :p


But you don't have colour on your walls.....



Get the red. :cool:
 
thats one colourful room sheo :D
ive seen a great rug that i like, its enormous and it has lots of different colours in but its predominantly red, so red it is :cool:
 
Blue at the moment but hopefully that will soon change and we shall have a lovely new terracotta/orange one with big soft melt-around-your-buttocks cushions. When Sofa Workshp can get their arse in gear and deliver it!
