Is a neutral/pale carpet a stupid idea with pets and a messy kid.

[VivaLeBeaver]

Doing up the front room.

We're getting new sofas, brown leather ones.

The walls are painted cream and I'm trying to decide on a carpet colour.

I was thinking that mid brown would be practical but would it be too much with brown sofas? Other option is beige but I'm worried about stains.

Any thoughts or suggestions gratefully received as I'm crap at this.

Well that's what I always thought, but there was actually no difference in price and I'm sure the carpets are better, let alone the service! (But it was a while ago we shopped there, though...)

I need to go have a look soon at some sofas I've seen in a few other places further away/on the web since I've now discovered C's are a stockist for them...for our lovely new place (if we ever get moved!!)

My suite came from there and was expensive but excellent quality. Ten years old and still looks new, I'm about to sell it though as I want a change. But they're certainly good quality.

Oh, I'm so going for a look at the weekend.

We don't actually need a new sofa, though I do like looking; but do need a decent sofa bed (losing two bedrooms in our move!) - shame they're so ugly on the whole:-(

Wool berber all the way .
