What's so good about neutral anyway?

I feel like we've spent the last few years constantly searching for and buying furniture...oh wait, we have been! I've listened to hundreds of sellers try to talk me into buying their pieces and the number one sales line I hear over and over is, "it's upholstered in a great neutral fabric!". Too bad we're not much for neutral around here and just to prove the point below we're sampling a few before and afters. If the sellers could only see their pieces now - the horror! :)

Just to be clear, at every show we do usually have one or two people who stop, gasp in horror and ask how we could have done such a thing to a piece of furniture. Well, actually they usually don't ask. It's much closer to accusing me of forever having ruined a piece of history. I'm okay with it, though. You can't please everyone in life and I know that piece of history had a better chance of ending up in a landfill than a loving home before.
