When I was in college, I remember being on a committee to redecorate the waiting area in the front office of our dorm. We decided to reupholster the sofa because it was really a nice sofa. It turned out beautifully! If you or anyone you know is planning on redecorating, consider keeping the current sofa and reupholstering it instead of buying a new one. If you are interested in designer upholstery fabric or trim for your sofa or in curtain drapery, especially if you can get it at a discount, then check out Design Diva Fabrics where you can shop online for designer upholstery fabrics, velvets, chenille, and more.  They have beautiful fabrics!
