<div style="text-align: left;">Today, I'm so happy to welcome Elizabeth of <a href="http://thelittleblackdoor.blogspot.ca/"><span style="color: #ea9999;">The Little Black Door</span></a>, whose colorful home and blog I love, and who has always been a tremendous support to me personally throughout this crazy journey we call blogging. The Little Black Door is one of the first blogs I followed religiously, and it continues to be one of my daily 'must checks'. <br />Grab a mug of the good stuff and get ready to be inspired!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Favourite Furniture Fridays: The Little Black Door

Happy Friday everyone! Elizabeth from <a href="http://thelittleblackdoor.blogspot.com/" style="color: #8e7cc3;" target="_blank">little black door</a> here and I'm psyched that Tiffany asked me to come over today to play Favorite Furniture Friday. I try not to play favorites in my house when it comes to my furniture, but I've failed at that attempt because I most certainly do have a favorite. That would be the <a href="http://thelittleblackdoor.blogspot.com/2012/04/now-you-really-can-take-seat.html" style="color: #8e7cc3;" target="_blank">settee in my living room</a>. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEibUxXhQid0KPHhtWe0fHaUZ4oPhX2T4LHYDSq1lr_mptx19jH8sxCCPevmBeXstkYoLcCcMEH74NF73ycvRianTlMVPaLSTZOBHdszcm3d12lXDO2rVjiSPnBn-tTshyphenhyphenyx4qyTJ1pHyO/s1600/littleblackdoorcouch.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="422" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEibUxXhQid0KPHhtWe0fHaUZ4oPhX2T4LHYDSq1lr_mptx19jH8sxCCPevmBeXstkYoLcCcMEH74NF73ycvRianTlMVPaLSTZOBHdszcm3d12lXDO2rVjiSPnBn-tTshyphenhyphenyx4qyTJ1pHyO/s640/littleblackdoorcouch.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span style="background-color: white;"></span><span style="background-color: white;">This sucker is like one of my children. And as much work as I put into it, I feel like I gave birth to this couch. It started out as a sad little thing in the back corner of an antique store. It smelled, had stains from I don't even want to know where, and the cushions were as thin as Victoria Beckham. </span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_JFCDKt3FhtoQmbyGNmJ4GnFZ_4cHetUTgBRTPMDzpsuB97Nf89ryNBYYpORz4ZUShwTm8p21Y-4uFZlVuD6hZ_XdzC96IXa8IrhymTGfVOuCGjPhpV2UXmzbshCrnjFsHSf71GIGtgp-/s1600/oldcouch.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_JFCDKt3FhtoQmbyGNmJ4GnFZ_4cHetUTgBRTPMDzpsuB97Nf89ryNBYYpORz4ZUShwTm8p21Y-4uFZlVuD6hZ_XdzC96IXa8IrhymTGfVOuCGjPhpV2UXmzbshCrnjFsHSf71GIGtgp-/s640/oldcouch.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>After weeks of work I sanded, painted, stripped, unstapled, reupholstered, stapled and piped that sucker into one hot little number. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJV5QbCEcAah42Vcq4NeDylZDXU3rtZnWdKc3NWiYjFdhK0nUrpL4rqFZVMG5sl9QL8LaygiL-cCdwwsefY6ScMR5rF2XoKw8_jexjbR-c4kqAVSA0Jf1aKnwhpsWjSU-xMnESXqUfFxhw/s1600/lbdcouchclose.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJV5QbCEcAah42Vcq4NeDylZDXU3rtZnWdKc3NWiYjFdhK0nUrpL4rqFZVMG5sl9QL8LaygiL-cCdwwsefY6ScMR5rF2XoKw8_jexjbR-c4kqAVSA0Jf1aKnwhpsWjSU-xMnESXqUfFxhw/s640/lbdcouchclose.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>I love her so that I sometimes sit on the other side of the room just so I can admire her.
