on the search...

so. we are looking for a new couch.. simple as that. not really... finding something that i like is near impossible. i don't like furniture stores, matching sets, or micro-fiber. i also don't like leather unless it has a really worn/anthropologie look to it. i have a budget- so i have to get a good deal. i like craigslist- but not for a couch- unless i am re-upholstering. i just don't want anything that has ever been in a home with smoke, pets- shed or no shed, or the fact that you never know what has really happened on that couch and then i lay my head on it- kind of scares me.
most days i want a sectional- and then some days i want a really eclectic look, with several different matching colored couches. i think in the end- unless we find something else we like- we have pretty much decided we are "sectional people".
so in the midst of my dilemma... i was blog stalking when i came across this sectional! i am in love people!... this is the couch that i want.. (i think- gosh i'm so indecisive.) i would take those chairs too... that yellow is my favorite color right now.
anyways- i'm getting off track... i emailed this lady that i dont even know from orange county (i can't even remember how i got to her blog) and asked her where in the world she got this lovely grey velvet couch- but she has never gotten back with me. i'm going crazy- i have been on every website i can think of that might have this couch, and can't find it.
i need your help- does anyone know where she got this couch?

I think amanda hit the nail on the head with the crate and barrel one eucalyptus color :) Love the couch I sure wish I knew how to decorate because this room looks so nice.

when i was at pottery barn today...i think i saw this is a lighter grey color. seriously...did you check there, it was velvet and everything. it looked so much like it. it was only a piece of it (outlet, go figure) but i think it was IT!!! you'll have to check it out. didn't see it at crate and barrel.

thanks guys...but it is safe to say- this couch is no where to be found...
the closest thing i can find to it... and no, it is not the one but close... pottery barn seabury. they have velvet... but in a dark grey. the feet are the same. i love how on my "dream couch" the cushions don't come off. it looks like all one piece. unless i find my "dc"- the pb couch just might have to work for me.
