Couch Hunt

I've been on the prowl for couches lately. I will be reupholstering a couch I recently came across. It has a lovely wooden frame (which will also be painted) but the fabrics is... well... horrific! So, I have a few things & ideas in mind....

Now, my couch looks nothing like this grey one...but the beautiful velvet grey would be a great accessory to my living room.
