I love that he was moving in on the new furniture before it's even put together. lol "fur"niture.... Of course Mr Hank is gonna make sure there's fur, it's in the name! he's just fixing the lack
Lester, whenever I buy furniture I get swatches and put them in the cat beds to see which one shows the least amount of fluff. Hank matches it perfectly so well done!
Lester, love is an action verb, and you ALWAYS ♥️ Jami. I am in my mid❤-60's, and my husband died years ago. Continue to show Jami how much you love and appreciate her. The 2 of you are blessed to have each other.
Dogs have MASTERS... Cats have SERVANTS! I think the color is great! You can never go wrong with grey. When you get down to it, the only opinion that matters is Mr. Hank. Lester you know this! lol
I would agree. I would have to go shopping with my better half. Not let him do it. I see it as major in house purchase definitely do it together. All that matters is what Jami thinks at this point and I definitely would of gone to the place across the street. She is a slick salesperson but you could of worked it in your favor by mentioning that. Just saying. 😊
You know why Jami will love it…because she can finally sit down. She said she wouldn’t sit on the old furniture, so it’s a win in that alone. 😊. Besides, it’s Mr. Hank approved.
Lester, life is way too short to put so much worry into everything having to be matching!! The bigger factors are whether it was a good price, whether it’s comfortable, if it fits your layout, but most importantly if YOU and JAMI like it. I love it. I think it looks great in that space and would rather my home have a ‘lived-in’ feel instead of a ‘showroom’ feel, if that makes sense. ❤
mr hank is an adorable bundle of fluff, love the couch, colour scheme and everything about it, cant wait to see Jami's reaction to it, you did a kind thing lester
Because the couch isn’t just a flat color, it has texture, it picks up many colors. I would have gone with the same color. It’s a good base color for the rest of the room to feed off of.
They have too many dogs and cats for a regular area rug. Maybe one of those for outdoors that they can take out and hang over the fence and pressure wash...
@@marywilson1442. There are area rugs now that are machine washable. If Jami’s washer has a large capacity, keeping it clean would not be so much of a problem.
I think your choice is impeccable. A couple throw pillows to pull another colour in will be the top. It is perfect for the space. Good luck with the dogs
Perfect color and choice for your house & usage! Tammy is to be commended. However, you'll never keep the dogs off if the furniture, so I'm glad it's washable.
I think the colour coordinates well brings out the darker colours in the wood wall behind the TV matches, hank perfectly and also pulls out the gray or darker colour in your countertops. Don’t stress she’ll love it.
The color is good. the grey is a nice warm neutral that works with that wall and pulls the mid greys out of the counter and chairs, and that coffee table works great. LOL, the grey works great with Mr Hank too!! Even matches the Skull on the fireplace. Recliners are so comfy, and the ability to plug your phone in while doom scrolling the comments is a bonus. And honestly, as long as Mr Hank approves, whose gonna go against him? He IS the boss. I like that the two of you will be comfortable when you watch TV together and everybody gets a recliner. You did good Lester.
If one of the old pieces of the lounge fitted in the corner where you have the dog bed i would of kept a piece for the dogs so it might keep them off the new lounge . Honestly i love the new lounge but have fun keeping the dogs off it.
I think it looks great. There is no color clash. You worry too much. I hope Jami loves it. And remember, this is the worst part of a colonoscopy. Tomorrow is a piece of cake. Be sure to take it easy tomorrow , afterwards too. Everything will be fine. 😊😊😊
Lester I do not see anything wrong with the colour, your main wall has got dark colours that go with the new furniture. Jami will be happy that it has been sorted out. You did good.
Cats own you, you don’t own them, lol. The furniture looks great. You do have some gray tones in the fireplace and in the back wall. Can’t wait to see Jami’s reaction.
If I had saved up for new furniture and my husband made this big purchase without me I would be hurt. Nothing wrong with the color or furniture but it’s not a gift, you said you saved up to buy it.
I was feeling some kind of way about it. But then I thought about the fact that whenever I bought new furniture I went on my own and bought it. My husband really wasn't interested. And I think Jami feels that way too because of the fact that she hasn't gone out and bought furniture. Most women would have bought new furniture for that space so quick. Lester would have came home and found it furnished. But some women just aren't into decorating like that... Now when he builds her her new home that'll be different. She's going antiquing😅
I really like the colors with the rest of the decor. I think it brings out more of the gray tones in the fireplace. I like gray as a neutral color. Great job.
Proin from the vet works GREAT!! Our older dog had the same problem. The minute she fell asleep she’d pee a little. Just call your vet, I’m sure they know all about it……. Our babies are family and need prescriptions too sometimes……….
Gray is a neutral color, and I feel she will be happy. Your color palate is good, and it goes well. You were smart to take pictures to help coordinate the choice. You done good.
Can't wait to see Jami's response. It's her house, too, and she's the one with the talent for decoration. It's so Longhorn Lesterish for you to "gift" her with something that she SHOULD have an INPUT on. She'll probably say..."It's fine, it'll be totally fine" whether she likes it or not! We'll see...
I think you can buy me furniture anytime you want too; you did good. You have grays in the tabletops, kitchen benches, and even the walls have shades of gray. I think it looks wonderful. Well done Lester.
I think the furniture you picked out is perfect! All of the colors work well together and are very rustic and earthy! The one suggestion I would have is to replace the coffee table and get a really big square table to accommodate both pieces of furniture😊
Lester I think you chose very well. It suits the decor of the room and the general colour scheme. Two recliners is also going to be very comfortable and you like to lie down while you watch TV so you’re going to be very comfortable. I’m sure Jamie is going to love it and if not, you can always go back to the store and look together at an alternative.❤❤❤🙌🏻
I think it matches and looks good! Our last furniture purchase was a similar set up. We love it and my husband falls asleep in the recliner all the time.
I'm not good at matching but I think it looks great. Good job, Lester! My former bosses, who were the top dog breeders in the nation for their breeds (they are even in books about their breeds), taught me that life is MUCH easier if you match your clothes and furniture to the color of you dogs.😂😂 I end up with black dogs and/or red/chocolate dogs so it's pretty easy.
Cats do what cats do. My cats (my children) do what they want in my kitchen. They pretty much do what they want anywhere in the house. They are priority. I hope you will enjoy your new furniture. Give Hank, Mable and the others pets for me.
I like the color; it matches some of the tones in the wall Kim did. The fireplace is sort of a neutral color to me. Plus, you live on a farm a darker color better than light to resist staining. Hope your prep in going well and that you can get some rest tonight. Again I thank you for being open about having the colonoscopy done, you never know if it might help someone else decide to "man up" and get it done.
"The dogs will not be on the furniture...mark my word '. My internet froze just after you said that Lester...which gave me a chance to get a good laugh in. I laugh because I have dogs too and they do not believe in sleeping on the floor. Best of luck! Love you Lester!!
I happen to love it, because we had the exact same set! Ours was brown, but it’s very comfortable. Biggest piece of advice, be sure you do keep the dogs off. Not just for the “accidents”, but their nails will wear out the material quickly if you don’t.😊❤
I love the color and style. I have almost the same furniture and living room area setup. But, I think I actually like your furniture better - it looks very comfy. Great job.
I love furniture shopping. It looks great! Good luck keeping the dogs off the couches once they are used to being on one. I have same problem LOL Yes Cats see us as they're servants LOL
I think that you have done a great job of making the most of your room. The new furniture looks nice and I hope that Jami will love it. What a nice surprise gift 🎁
