Palmiera Cacatoos Home Makeover : Sofa

Okay. Sofa hunting was the most controversial moment, for hubby and I had a quite different style in mind. I would prefer to have a lounge set that covers the whole living hall, while hubby prefers smaller set of sofa that won't "allow" sitters to "sleep" on the couch. Get it? *pointing to myself*

Anyway, lounge set can never go lower than RM5k even if it uses fabric. What more you can expect if it uses leather! So getting a super exclusive and expensive leather sofa set that cost us a BOMB, was not a practical option for this round of home makeover, and I would never think twice to spank Kiki if he ever scratches it!

Over two weekends, we went to few furniture shops near our house and finally settled with Kelana Furniture Mall at Kinrara (used to be located at Kelana Jaya). Both of us agreed to get a high-arm-rest-type of sofa in 80s look. The displayed sofa was originally a 3-seater and hubby quickly asked the salesperson whether it can be customized. Hell yeah, they can, just prepare the money yawwww...hahaha!

So we customized a 2+2+1+bench (add 2 inches high and hard-type cushion) covered with rough wool fabric in dark grey and cream color. Plus point is EACH AND EVERY pieces of it is washable (zipper is attached on sofa frames, pillows, and cushions). It took 2 weeks for them to deliver to our home and thank god that it came with perfection.

The whole set

We released Kiki from the cage and first thing that he did was stretching and SCRATCHING THE SOFA! ARGHHHHHH! *nangis* Hubby then said straight to my face "Now you have to trim his nails EVERY WEEK!" Pfft!

So what's next? More makeover coming. Stay tune!
