I have a pink couch...I know, I know, SO shocking! (I'll wait for you to pick yourselves up from the floor!). Well, actually, it's a love seat (courtesy of my sister) with a slip cover. This slip cover was such a find @ Big Lots last year...it's really Shabby Chic (at least, that's what the tag says). I Loved it because of the color (the perfect pink is so elusive...sigh...unless I blend it myself...) and when I saw that it was really, truly "Shabby Chic"...well, that sold it! I know that sounds snobby...but if I was really a snob, I'd never be at Big Lots early on a Saturday morning wearing no makeup and glasses that are missing one of the nose thingies!

Oh sure, it was made for a "real" sized couch, but with some tucking and folds and pleats...it works...at least it works for me. And the "loose fit" is a real favorite with my cat who enjoys burrowing underneath it to sleep!

Well, it might make Rachel Ashwell cringe...but I love it! (Please don't enlarge the picture or you "might " see a bit of cat hair..."note to self", the cottage/shabby/romantic look requires a white or light pet!).
