You may remember me complaining about our worn out, too small, very uncomfortable couch in my House Anniversary post. We bit the bullet this summer and finally ordered the Henry Sectional from West Elm. After going back and forth between two colors I decided on Performance Velvet in Otter. I love it! The fabric is so soft. It’s a microfiber which means it’s easy to care for but it has a longer nap so it feels more like velvet.
The sectional takes up the entire corner leaving no room for side tables. I ordered the sectional with one shorter side to leave room for a console table. I knew finding a console table long enough would be a challenge and possibly very expensive. We looked at several options before deciding that Dylan could build one that is the right size and for the right price.
I told Dylan the dimensions I wanted and the basic look and he nailed it! The finished table measures 18 inches wide and 8 feet long. I painted it Galveston Gray by Benjamin Moore. It’s a paint color I am also using in our kitchen remodel.
I love how it turned out. The best part is that, after packing them around for over 20 years, we finally have a place to display our fathers’ flags and that makes me a happy girl.
