White as Snow

We have been known to make rash decisions around here.

It’s only been a day and I’m already thinking that these feet….

dirty feet

…and this dog…

…might not go well with our new sofa.

Just a hunch.

    Nope, probably not. 🙂 Scotchgard and a lint brush needed asap!!!

    Oh my. Buy all of the slip covers.

    Take this from the girl who has upholstery pinned clear vinyl sheeting to the corners of all her living room armchairs because of one very destructive cat: cover that up the MINUTE it comes in the house.

    Hahahah what were you thinking?!?!

    Maybe you should have a pair of “sofa socks” your son has to wear if he even looks at the couch. Haha

    Word. Loco lady, you are.
    I guess not everyone would ‘get’ the Hey, Hey Momma reference. 🙂

    I’m still laughing. You have clearly lost your marbles.

    Now you’re just ASKING for it. I’m going to start a pool: who/what will stain that thing first. 🙂

    Oh boy! Good luck!

    Yeah, you’re screwed. Until… eventually… you’ll have a charcoal gray sofa. And then things will be ok again.

    I have this couch, in super light tan. My secret? But 2 slipcover sets- they are totally removable and the couch comes with one. Then find a good dry cleaner- at least white can be bleached..ha! Good luck.love it! Ours rocks!

    I just found out I am coming toBlogHer for Friday and Friday night- it’s tough with my girls . I have never been to a blogging conference of any kind. I hope to meet you!

    Oh, that’s hilarious – you poor thing! All I can think of is you start learning to love throw rugs, and lots of ’em. Or develop Dirt Blindness, like my husband – it’s like the dirt is just invisible to him…

    Buy cases of oxyclean. 🙂

    Temporary insanity? I have never owned white anything.

    I’m voting for the fact you’ll lecture the kids, threaten the dog and then YOU’ll be the one to spill spaghetti sauce or red wine on it. Not that my nickname is “Grace” or anything… maybe I’m projecting.

    I have 4 cats and a white couch(slipcovers), white bedspread, blanket, sheets and towels. It works because everything can be bleached!

    I burst out laughing! I love his feet and his grin: reminds me of my mom, who used to take an appraising look at us at the end of a summer’s day down by the creek and say, You must have had FUN getting *THAT* dirty!
