Not one to ever shy away from anything bright and bold, Shannon went as bold as it gets when she recovered this antique sofa with purple velvet! I suppose it would have been a bold choice to keep it as it was … but only in the sense that your friends would come over and say “Oh my! You have a faded and saggy elephant-print sofa! That is so … um … bold.”
