More Black Couches, AT Debut, And Where I Blog From
More examples of how fabulous black couches can be.




I have no idea why I have couches on the brain lately. I just do.
I have a couple of other things to share with you today. First, today is my debut at Apartment Therapy!  My first post will be up later this morning – so that’s afternoon, evening or early tomorrow for most of you – and you can look for me there regularly Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Second, I am sharing my messy desk as part of Ill Seen, Ill Said‘s wonderful series called “Where We Blog From.” Hope to see you at either or both places today. Thanks!

I always think of black sofas as the big, hideous black leather monstrosities of my misspent student days…but perhaps I need to expand my horizions.
Can't wait to catch your debut!

Thanks, everyone! I hope I don't disappoint! My AT posts will be different from this blog so it'll be interesting to see what you think.
le banc moussu: It does seem like I'm all over the place lately! Hope you don't get sick of me.
Averill: That was what I used to think. (Click on the link to my first post about black couches.)
OK, let's talk about how I can get couch #2 into my house.
Congrats on AT! I'll be cruising over this afternoon to check it out

love these black couches!! gorgeous.
(thanks for the comment on my blog!!
I just love the 2nd photo's sofa. So gorgeous. I tend to love what I can't have… My huge, hairy WHITE great pyrenees makes me veer from anything too dark. Oh, but I love them.
Can't wait to read your AT post.

I like the last one!
and I will probably buy a black couch, whenever I'm moving in to my new house. I want a white one, but well… you can really sit on a white one with jeans and all… so black it is!
*loves*
.-= toothfairynotes´s last post ..Picture of the moment =-.
a black sofa goes always well in any space. it's the centre piece in a living room (or bedroom) and from there we can always spread colour everywhere. i call it the Home Little Black Dress.
Congrats on your new project – AT. I'll definitely will keep an eye on it

What do I love about these? They are not all big, clumsy leather couches! Yay! The smaller settee with rivets is particularly charming. I saw black horsehair covered couches in a plantation home recently, and they were marvelous (the way horsehair fabric reflects light is very interesting).
CONGRATS on the Apartment Therapy gig! You are perfect for it. I'll be reading AT more knowing you're there!!

I like the sofa in the first image. The blend of the soft feminine lines of the sofa and the dark masculine fabric is marvelous.
I have been waiting and waiting for your AT debut sadly your post is not up yet. I won't go to bed until I read it though!
Hope you had a great weekend!

Congrats on the AT gig! I'm looking forward to reading even more of your writing. In fact, I'm going to take a peek at AT:SF right now …
I enjoyed reading your "Where I blog from" post
I can't find your post at Apartment Therapy, but I voted for rooms in their colour contest while I was there
Love the details in the third picture you posted

Black couches are great — they can look masculine, done in a large scale with deep wood tones in a study, or quite feminine, done in a rich velvet, just as you have shown. Very dramatic!
I'm off to see your first post
P.S the third one is amazing!

Congratulations, I'm so happy for you!
I love these black couches, these would be perfect for us pet owners who wish we could have white sofas.

I jet setted over here by way of Mrs.Limestone.
Funny, I have been spotting lots of black couches too-
I think they look so hip now. Did you see the one on AphroChic shop?

Alek, I don't know what's wrong with me, I cannot find your AT post! Can you please direct me?
Thanks,

Wow – just came by via Mrs Limestones. Reading back, I'm sad to hear your Murano met an untimely end – it is gorgeous! Looking forward to flicking through more of your archives.
I bet they hide dirt well.
