Fabric or Leather?

Shopping for living room furniture can be quite stressful! With so many styles out there we wonder which one suits us best or our family. Do I want print or solid ?

Neutral or color that makes a statement?

Sectional or individual pieces?

By this point were just about ready to give up!

Well we have owned quite a few pieces in our lifetime both fabric and leather and I can say that I have been satisfied with both choices . While I may prefer the beautiful options fabric has to offer, e.g like the images posted above..... leather has also come a long way and is not as cold and plain as it once was. Like this one from Restoration Hardware which I LOVE by the way!

Our most recent purchase was fabric and up to now it has held up pretty well. With 2 scratch that 3 boys and a yorkie I wonder how its lasted this long.This won't be our last time purchasing furniture and when that time comes I know we will be facing this dilemma again, although we'll probably end up with fabric again (sigh)


So which do you prefer? Fabric or leather?
