Yes, but can you beat a couch that has sheep and ducks?

February 20, 2009 by Minnie 4 Comments

country kitchen couch.Ugly couch contest… I’m sure all of us couls have won this at least at some point in our lives. Just recently we got rid of a green couch with sheep, dogs, ducks (of various kinds), roosters and bunnys all over it, not to mention the pond, trees and barn sort structure.

Anyway… Simply Spray is having a contest in which you send in a picture of your ugly couch. Click here for details and pictures of the horrendous couches that have been entered already.

The thing is.. Simply Spray appears to be a _spray_ that you can use on your ugly couch to make it (supposedly) less ugly. I’m not buying it. Their “AFTER” picture looks disturbingly like a … no, I can’t say it… but you can go look at it here and submit your hideous couch too.

    Interesting… I suppose the couch paint could have possibilities… But why not just sew a “couch cozy”?
    BTW, I like that thing in the picture 😀 Makes me want to knit and felt or cross-stitch myself something similar 😉

    i know! that couch with the sheep and ducks was pretty rad. It wasn’t UGLY so much as just very silly. I sewed red thread eyes on some of the dogs. Also, we put it on casters so that we could roll it outside to lounge in the sun. i miss that couch!
