old is gold

I was looking for cheap old sofa to replace a shitty one @ my room in Ljubljana. After a day of checking the austrian and slovenian websites with small ads, I found a perfect one in Graz. For 10 euros. Of course I bought it! 
It was in red, which is not really my favorite color, little washed off and faded in the middle of every pillow, where the unknown rumps were sitting. Coating is washable, which is great! I wanted to paint it black, so I bought two doses of black textile color. But as the coating is too big and heavy for this amount of color, it only became darker, not black. And to be honest, I couldn't be more satisfied. The result is this plummy color, mottled-from more blue to more red shades, which I love!
