It is a trip souvenir from Peru and it has always hung on a prominent wall in my home even though it has now badly faded. All of which is to say, I understand attachment to inanimate objects that carry a part of our history with them. I hope you have a wonderful day.

I'm so glad it still has a place in your home. I had a sofa like that, and i miss it to this day. But, you know, sometimes they just have to go to make room for the new. Your new sofa is yummy and wonderful. I'm sure it will have it's own stories to tell too...!<br /><br />CindyCindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16980709067973460368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7200170269784068730.post-35327345187744724842012-03-13T19:11:55.874-04:002012-03-13T19:11:55.874-04:00Kathleen!...I was getting worried about you.

We have two in our living room and I could never part with them now. They are my favorite sofas ever and we already have plenty of stories in the 5 yrs. we have had them. It's funny we still have our old sofa in the sitting room with the same white slipcover that your old sofa has!Seawashedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00299816851144887705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7200170269784068730.post-5912842908074358602012-03-13T19:03:53.074-04:002012-03-13T19:03:53.074-04:00I'm looking for a new sofa and have narrowed i...I'm looking for a new sofa and have narrowed it down to the Ektorp (sp?)...will have to drive 2 1/2 hrs to the nearest Ikea and then assemble it....was the assembly difficult?
