Jim's brother, Steve, helped us pick out the right furniture style for our new home at Sofa Connection.

The funniest thing is the fact that Jim and Lynnette were set to purchase this exact set they're sitting on -- and in the exact colors you see here: primaries!

The sofa was bright cherry red, the loveseat was deep royal blue, and the chair a sunshine yellow. We were trying to break from our "conservative" mold, and this surely would have done it, but we were so grateful that Steve came and saved us from such a purchase!

We all agreed that the STYLE of this set was perfect, but just not the fabrics...

They say you should opt for a large chair & ottoman (rather than a loveseat), in addition to a sofa and another chair, and when in doubt, go bigger, taller, wider for your furniture pieces! Likewise, you should choose a solid color for your main piece (like the sofa).
