.
Due to scheduling conflicts we spent a day and night with a big empty space instead of a cozy living room.
.
.
But late afternoon on the following day, the new furniture arrived.
.
.
With my husband supervising…
.
.
And thoroughly inspecting the merchandise.
.
.
In case you’re wondering, it passed quality control.
.
.
Oh, to be young and strong again. They had all 4 pieces in and set up in less than 10 minutes.
How young? We tipped them $20 each and told them to have a beer on us. They smiled, but said they couldn’t because they’re not of legal age yet.
🤣
.
.
Ah…
.
.
That’s better.
.
.
It’s hard to get a picture that truly represents the colors …
.
.
So you’ll just have to trust me that it looks nice.
.
.
After all the trouble we had choosing fabrics, we’re pleased everything blends.
.
.
His Lordship?
Well, that jury might still be out.

River's world..... 
It looks lovely. Very homely and relaxing.

Homely is same meaning as homey. Homely is UK wording.

Oh my. Goodness. No, here in the UK homely is same as homey, as I had to look up what homey meant to be sure you were asking same thing as I was. 😂

Wow you got your furniture quickly. The last time we bought upholstered furniture it was months before we got a message telling us it’d be a few months more! Enjoy you new lovelies.

They said 6 to 8 weeks and it came in under 6. I was shocked. The dining room set took 16…

Too young to drink beer. Now that is young! My furniture took 8 1/2 weeks to come. Now I’m waiting for a new cushion cover (because the welting is fraying after 6 months) and it looks like that will take at least as long.

The room still needs curtains and a rug, but I’m calling it a win there. More projects to come if I can ever get the contractor back..
