For months now I have been mentioning Curious Sofa was preparing for a Spring cleaning makeover. First there was the idea, then the wait on new floor samples, then the wait on back ordered wallpaper, then the wait on labor. Then two weeks ago we get the good news we will be featured in another national magazine this September, but... the shoot had to happen this week before I left for Round Top! Fast forward to a wonderful staff working late, climbing ladders and following my late night list of To Do's. Now picture the owner frantically fixing her workroom and office to be photo worthy (is yours?). Finally, I am happy to present a few pictures of what we have been planning and working on and finish up with a few shots of Elizabeth shooting pictures of the store for Where Women Create.
Our favorite: A touch of modern in out Black and White Living Room.
The new wallpaper: Barnwood wallpaper in all areas hung horizontally with contrasting borders.
The new awning
The bedding department wallpaper with cloud border.
The new Bella Notte bedding
The Boudoir
The roses border
The stationery geometric wallpaper
Grass cloth border in the kitchen. (Last minute addition, this will be changed.)
A new/old Scandinavian style dresser
A new raw wood end table (and sofa table to match not pictured.)
New pair of terra cotta lamps
Spring kitchen
Antique typewriter and old album pages SOLD
Lone Jack drop cloth bag SOLD
Roses Oil Painting
Vintage clocks SOLD
New script pillow
Crochet towels and cast iron towel ring
Old nine drawer dresser (new handles to come) SOLD
New custom pillows from $78
New earrings from $9.95
...And Elizabeth above shooting the story for Where Women Create:A sneak peek of some of the smaller images below, I shot over her shoulder.
Please stop in this week and see all the new items. We're so happy with the .change!

The stock room & your office look fantastic! Great job! Those half dolls are amazing! love the one with long blonde locks! Are they for sale? Betsy would love them too!
I purchased your pink corset for one of my girls. Can't wait to squeeze one of them in to it! (I am referring to my dress forms as "my girls") Wanted to clarify that.
Can't wait to see what you get in Round Top!

Yep, another Texas roadtrip is in order. The new store is just unbelievable. HOW CAN YOU KEEP GETTING BETTER?!!!!!!!
Was there any doubt this would be gorgeous ??? I can't wait to see the magazine !!!
Looks wonderful. Love the kitchen shelf. That is a great display. Hanging the necklaces from the horns are a great idea. Glad everything came together.
I love this! What a great feeling to change things so much...You must have one of the best staffs anywhere, and you must be a great "boss", to have them contribute so much...Congrats on being chosen as a featured artist in "Where Women Create", one of my favorite publications...Jo Packham is an amazing woman.
Take care,
Katie
You seem to be changing your style a bit. I must say, not a cool vibe anymore....kinda pottery barn meets pier one...sorry lost a fan
"Change hurts. It makes people insecure, confused, and angry. People want things to be the same as they've always been, because that makes life easier. But, if you're a leader, you can't hang on to the past."
