BLUE VELVET SOFA – CHEAP TO CHIC

June 27, 2013

Great blue velvet sofas seem to be on trend these days.  I’m going to take out the word “seem” and just say these lovelies are definitely the “it” piece of furniture in home decor.  There.  I did it.  I made a definitive statement.  Wooo hoo!!! (TE and anyone I know can tell you…I deliberate about everything…so a definitive statement by me is a big deal!)

White, taupe, brown or gray – neutrals – sofas still are still of course the most popular. I am seeing this blue velvet trend quite a bit though and I like it.

Something so rich, royal and luxe about a beautiful blue sofa.  Definitely adds a bit of personality to a room too.  Can be either clean and modern or plush and traditional in style.  Perfect to add an easy high design touch to any living room, den or common space in a house or apartment.

So today I bring you blue velvet sofas in the first CHEAP TO CHIC in some time!

Barclay Butera Ridgecrest Loveseat – regular $3,640; on sale $2,199  (Velvet blue love seat with nailhead trim, turned wood legs on casters) (above)
West Elm Everett Upholstered Love Seat  – $899 (Ink blue performance velvet)(above)

Would you dare to be different with a blue velvet sofa?  What are the pros in cons in your mind?  Do you like this trend?

Happy Thursday!

P.S. Making all of my summer plans right now.  Have some fun summer launches of product to announce soon…and I hope to go to market to show some of them off!

P.P.S.  My mom leaves for France this Saturday!  She goes every year for two months.  Wish I could go to Paris with her!  I haven’t been in two summers.  Must get back there soon.  I am taking her to the airport on Saturday and then stopping by a friend’s new store!  More to come on that!

P.P.P.S. TE and I are also in the late throws of making our summer vacation plans…we’ll see where we decide to go!

P.P.P.P.S. Had a great dinner with SR and LK at Katsuya two nights ago.  So great catching up with them.  So many fun stories to share!

P.P.P.P.P.S.  What are your summer plans?

    i have been wanting a navy velvet sofa since i was a little kid (i was a strange kid). i finally have picked the one i want (after 3 1/2 years of searching) and am ordering it soon. i cannot wait! i am so glad that they are on trend right now because it made it so much easier to finally find the one!

    I, too, have been wanting a dark blue velvet sofa(actually sofa with a chaise attached) for at least the last 3 years, haven’t managed to find that perfect sofa yet, though 🙁

    I am loving the navy sofa trend! It wouldn’t work for my family though. I think it would make our little apartment feel even smaller and with a 4 year old and newborn, it would probably get ruined and stained! I would love to use it in a client’s space!

    My dad had a blue velvet sofa in the ’70s. He eventually had it reupholstered in white. I’d love to have the blue velvet version now!

    I’ve had mine for six years – family thought I was a bit off, but it’s beautiful. especially in early morning light or sunset!

    I love blue and white porcelain, garden seats and antique Minton china in cobalt blue, but that is close as I ever get to navy. That said, my first sofa was a deep blue vintage modern by Dux, which I bought in 1963…but I was very young.

A great vaulted ceiling doesn’t just add height. It changes how a room feels entirely. The best ones make you stop, look up, and never want to leave.
Save this for your next build or renovation inspo. 🖤

Before you start moving furniture, ask yourself thBefore you start moving furniture, ask yourself these three questions:
Does this improve the room’s function?
Does it create a better focal point?
Does it make the space easier to walk through?
If the answer is “no” to all three, maybe it’s just the rearranging itch talking. 😅
Save this for the next time you’re tempted to move every piece of furniture in your house.

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤

Life when I’m offline. 🎣 On this trip to Park CitLife when I’m offline. 🎣
On this trip to Park City, UT, I was way off line with a little fly fishing. No emails. No DMs. No feed. Just a rod, a beautiful river, and however long it takes to catch something.
Running two brands means my brain rarely stops so when it does, it really does.
No fish were harmed. All fish were returned into the river.
What do you do when you log off? Comment and let's give each other some ideas!😀
