A few issues

Congrats to everyone who has recently closed!! Also to the new bloggers, welcome! I apologize for not posting any pics yet but the furniture company has thrown me a curveball.  In April, my husband and I picked out furniture for the morning room and family room.  In July, some of the furniture was delivered.  Keep in mind we also purchased and had delivered two other rooms of furniture in the meantime.  In late August we were getting rather irritated and had to continuously call them to find put when the rest of the furniture would be delivered.  Long story short, the accent chairs we picked out to go on either side of the fireplace were discontinued.  What!?!  What if we hadn't called, how long would they have waited to tell us??  Since then I have looked at 10,000 chairs and haven't seen any that I really like.  Time is not on my side either.  My son plays football, husband coaches and I'm in my final semester before graduation in December.  Free time?? I have no concept of those words right now.  I was waiting for the accent chairs before I picked out window treatments, rug, and the wall decorations.  Now I'm in a holding pattern and I don't like it.

What I can show for now is my most favorite piece, the server in the morning room...




And here is the sectional in the family room...


I'll post pics of the bedrooms and media room later.

    The server is beautiful! Where did you get it, if I may ask?

      Regency Furniture. It actually came in a box, a really big box. The brand name is HomElegance.

    The server is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! It makes the perfect statement with the arched window! I love it! What kind of chairs are you looking for? Try visiting Arhaus which has awesome furniture. Visit Bassett and Ethan Allen to create custom chairs--you pick your chair, the legs, and the fabric.

      I had never heard of Arhaus before, THANKS! I am cautious about doing the custom chairs only because I'm not sure how long it takes to actually get them. I have already been waiting forever, but on the other hand, if I can't find something I like soon I guess that's the only way to go! My husband and I both like the wingback style and I love the nailhead accent, just gives the piece a little more character.

      I grew up about 15 minutes from Sheely's and I love shopping there. The selections are amazing and the people are so nice to work with.
