Redecorating.

I've been putting off recovering our furniture until we move, but it's become necessary to do this now so our home looks more "up to date".  Sounds easy but choosing fabric has become more difficult than I assumed it would be.  First I expect this go-round of upholstery to last the rest of our lives.  That may sound morbid, but really, do the math.  For that reason I am choosing neutral colors, but they vary so much also.  I currently have18 samples spread across the one piece of furniture I don't plan on recovering anytime soon.  At the store they match, in the parking lot they clash, and at different times of the day it varies.  I'm not good at making expensive decisions.
