I found a recliner last night on craigslist 60.00.Actually 2 recliners,but decided only to get one this morning.Olive green,new,not microfiber,yeah!A chenel fabric.I Called the lady and talked to her about it last night & this morning.She lives 2 countys away.I offered her 40.00 gas money to bring it to area we both know & was half way.
DH came home this morning and said he'd go with me to pick up.Even thou we was meeting at a shopping center,I felt weird going by myself.Got back home at 12:00.Whoo Hooo,it's a rocker recliner.I was looking for a club chair or recliner that doesnt lean way back when you sit in it.It doesnt.YEAH again.LOL.

I'll take pics & post in a lil' while.I need to sweep,mop and bring back in the rug.1st I may take a small nap.I was so excited last night.I didnt sleep & got up way too early.I'm feeling a lil' sick since we ate lunch.

Be back soon with pics of last weeks new sofa,loveseat,tables and recliners.....

Sounds perfect Jackie, and great price too.
Can't wait to see it. : )

Waiting for a pic! Happy for you.

Homage to our Craig's List Queen.

Sorry it's took til today to get pics posted.I have some bug.Yuck!I did not mop or bring back in my 8x10 rug yet.

This is a pic from a few days ago.This was driving me crazy,not having loveseat & chair centered.And hadnt gotten my mantel fixed either.I was waiting to find me a chair.This pic is pretty well true colors.
B4 I got my chair.

Pic taken standing at front door.Still no rug.Sometime today maybe.

Got my chair yesterday.I know this room is all bland and neutral.Carmel,browns and too many wood tones.I want to paint the lil' table in between chairs or antique it.I change out my panels,pillows and art decor often.That wall behind fireplace & chairs maybe painted a lighter beige soon.

This pic was taken standing at recilner.See that bookcase needs painted too.
You can see my old glass tables in the room.The lady never came to buy my old sofa tables yet.I'm leaving them near the door,incase she does come.

UGH,dark pic no matter what I did.

across from recliners....dark again.ugh.I really need to learn how to lighten pics on Corel program.That glass sofa table is going soon.

I need a hanging lamp or pictures on this corner wall.I have my step excerciser hid in this corner too.I thought about pics,so I'd have something to look at while excercising.

Any ideas are welcome.I still need to add metal thingy above the pic on fireplace.And something more beside pic near door.Shelfs or candle sconses?Maybe will change to lighter printed panels this week.Then have to change artwork again.LOL.Everything is plain & solid,I need a printed design in here.Panels,pillows,a new throw for my chair and add more texture too I think.

I did get a great deal on that new recliner thou.Lady had it only for 2 yrs,she said.Diffinatlly new & clean.

Jackie, what a deal on the recliner. And the room is really coming together for you! Love it.

Love that color on your walls! What is the name/brand??? Very pretty.

Cara,hi and thank you.Now it kinda looks like I have too much furniture.No place for this years Christmas tree...it will take me til then to figure that out.Bahaha

Junkcollector,it's Home Depo Behr,primer & painter in one.Love that paint.I'll have to find the name & post back.It's a carmel- peanutbutter color.I let DH have choice in this color.I had several colors picked and asked DH which did he like best.I wanted one color up from this.Slighter lighter than this but I'm happy.

Here is what this room looked like 4 years ago.Looks Barney purple...LOL.It was deep eggplant color.Yuck blue carpet!!Colors and light in this room never looks right in pics.LOL....what was I thinking then?;D

That green chair goes nicely with your other recliner. I don't know if I remember seeing pictures of your space before...hmmm. You look like you have a big room with lots of seating.
