Girls, it has been one of those weeks!!! But, the one thing I kept looking forward to was Friday’s Flaunt Your RED! So let’s get started~
Meet Gloria~ That’s right this sofa has a name and she is named after none other then our very own bloggy gal, Gloria over at Happy To Be! Gloria has asked begged, for this sofa, from our RMS days!

Oh, and if you have never met the REAL Gloria…then make this the day to go over and visit with her….you’ll be glad you did!
Gloria sits at attention in our Great Room~
She is full of fluffy, gorgeous pillows~
Too pretty for a house full of boys…lol ;)
She is adorned with gorgeous trims!
She has to die for………………
CURVES!~
You can see her from all directions of our house~
I have thought about putting a table behind her, but it would cover up her beauty~
She makes a quite spot to sit and read a book or watch a movie~
You see her first thing when you enter the front door~
This is standing with my back to the kitchen and sunroom~
This is her designer and maker~
A few more REDS in the Great Room area~
A little RED in this tassel~
A RED Bible from my Mom, when I was 11 years old~
A RED family Bible, that belonged to Hubby’s grandparents~
A RED ribbon dresses up a topiary~
A RED Hymn book bought at a yard sale~
RED flowers on the end table~
And, a cute little bear wearing a RED dress on the other table~

What a great post! I love the sofa - you just want to sink right into it!
Thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of your Flaunt Your Red Friday for the first time! This is just too fun!
Are you having one in August???
Have a great weekend!
Gloria sure is a real beauty. I love the material on the back. I understand why you don't want to cover that up. Your house is beautiful, too. :)
Oh. My. Goodness! I am totally in love with your sofa!
Your couch is one of the most beautiful sofas I have ever seen! I would not sit on that sofa.

What a beautiful couch! Thanks for sharing it with us and for hosting Flaunt Your Red. I had to do some digging, but I found some red to flaunt too!
That is one gorgeous couch, and wonderful red accessories.
blessings and thanks for hosting.

Hi Nancy, I've always admired that couch. It is something I would pick. Love the design and colors and matching pieces. Your home is gorgeous.
Your red couch is very cool! I can understand why you wouldn't want to put anything behind it since it would cover up her beauty.
This is my first time participating in Flaunt Your Red but I had so much fun finding photos to post of red. Thank you for hosting this one.
WOW I absolutely love that stunning couch errrr Gloria!! BEAUTIFUL and looks really comfy too! I could definitely get lost in a book sitting on her!♥
Pretty pretty pretty post!!!
Nancy, my friend, Gloria is to die for! I'm always trying to catch glimpses of her and wondered when she would be featured properly. Your whole family room is absolutely beautiful. I know what you mean about living with boys...they will put up with any amount of lace and trim for their moms though...right? My husband often says that there's no sign that guys live here. Your built ins are really pretty too.
You know I'm just dying for not participating in the flaunt today. My computer still hasn't been returned. I just hate to invade Spencer's laptop with my pictures and everything. Trying to wait patiently. Now it's time to visit some other lovers of red. :)
Oh Miss Nancy! Gloria is beautiful!Thanks for sharing her lovely curves with us and for hosting FYR!
Oh Nancy!!! I am in love with your sofa too...I think her name should be changed to Cathy;)!!! How beautiful!!! Her curves...her fabric...her trim...her pillows...
everything!!! Gorgeous!!!
Your room is beautiful...every detail is perfection!!! I love your bookcases and fireplace. They are so lovely!!! A wonderful cozy place to spend your time!!!
I am so glad that you shared this...I love it!!! It is always a treat...whenever I stop by!!!
Enjoy!!!
XOXO
Cathy
OMGosh! That is the most beautiful couch I have ever seen! Gloria is lucky to be living in your home!!

"Gloria" is beautiful. I love her curves...everyone knows curvy girls are comfortable!! I also love how you use the hymnal and Bibles in red. Great idea. I think I have that hymnal too. Enjoyed seeing your room!
Hi Nancy
I love your sofa!!! It is so comfortable looking and yet beautiful at the same time. Love the other reds too. Thanks for stopping by today.
((hugs)) Rhondi
Well hello Miss Gloria you sure are a pretty little thing !!!
Nancy she is gorgeous !!! I think in a house full of boys I would have them put a doilie on their hind quarters before sitting down...
Have a great week-end,
Kathy :)
She is one gorgeous sofa! She seems sassy with her red and adornments and such. I like a sassy lady!
Brenda
Nancy- your sofa is just beautiful!! I don't think I have ever seen a prettier couch. That couch really has personality!!! Love it. Thanks for hosting such a great event. I have been wanting to participate but couldn't think of a thing I wanted to show. I hope what I posted is okay!!
Have a wonderful weekend!

Be still my heart!
Nancy that is the most beautiful red divan that I have ever laid eyes on. The whole room is absolutely gorgeous. Loved the tassels, they are just the icing on the cake. Loved your southern grammar lesson. I have 7 grandchildren and the all say ya'all. They have all be corrected in school. One of the things that I say all the time, that I didn't notice, was I was always taught to say, "Thank you kindly". I have even my DIL saying that now. A southern gal just rubs off on you, ya know? I am in Phoenix, have been for 23 years. Was born in Charelston, South Carolina. When Daddy got out of the military we lived in Oklahoma as that is where both sets of parents lived. My husband and our jobs brought us to the valley, but I will always be a southern gal at heart. Love your Post. Please stop by and say hello at Country Wings in Phoenix. "Country Hugs", Sherry
That sofa is SOOOO beautiful!! I found you through Stacey @ Poofing the Pillows. Thank you for hosting such a fun event!
Cheers, Andrea
Oh what a beautiful sofa!! So bright and happy just like the shades of red are!
Blessings,
Sandra
Thank you for flaunting Gloria! I can see why the real Gloria covets her! I enjoyed visiting everyone's Red blogs today!
Nancy, love that couch .I love all the different fabrics on it !
I love your Gloria! (That's also my sister's name!) What a great sofa! You have a beautiful family room & she's the star! Just found your blog & am looking forward to reading more of it! Patti
This sofa is gorgeous! I love all your other reds too. Your home is just beautiful:>)
Fancy~
That is indeed the most gorgeous sofa. Such beautiful detail and the butterflies and the trim...oh my! I love the plaid chairs with it, too. Of course your home and decor is one of my ALL time favorites. :)
Hugs~ J
Nancy, that is one GORGEOUS sofa!!! Oh my, it makes me wonder how I could upholster something along that line...hmm. I love your house, it is sooo pretty, everything looks so picture perfect. Thanks for a look! And, thank you so much for commenting on my new blog. You are so sweet! Hugs, ~cindy s~
I can't wait to show off my red! I love your page. I just want to add that I had the extreme pleasure of living in the south, in Florence, AL, for 3 years. My husband is from there, and I've just got to say that it was everything I thought it would be -- hospitable, charming, gentile, historical, and so much more. I miss so much about it. We're now in So. CA (where I'm from) and my husband is having a hard time adjusting. Can't say that I blame him. Anyway, I'll be a regular at your page...will make me feel a little bit like I'm still there. :-) Thanks for your beautiful page!
I don't believe I have EVER seen such a beautiful sofa. All the different patterns, the trims, the curves..Oh My !!
Thanks so much for showing a photo of it...
xo bj
I love Gloria. What a great entertaining post and a treat to get to see Gloria close up. I have always admired her from afar in your other posts.
