    Thank you so much for the kind words! I have seen some beautiful sofas at Pottery Barn and Urban Barn, but not quite the same. You can always try to get a custom sofa made – Cameo and Avenue design (both Montreal based) could be options!

  4. Hi Tamara, you have a beatuiful home, so thank you for the inspiration! Are there similar couches you would recommend that ship to Canada? It’s been a struggle. Thank you!
