My friends at Vanguard Furniture have the honor of making a special tufted settee for the Obama girls.  Rank hath its privileges which is why the President got his settee made in about a week while the rest of us have to wait the normal eight to ten.  Michelle Obama has shown a strong sense of style in her choice of furnishings as well as some financial restraint as compared to her aforementioned predecessor.  Check out the photos I got from my inside source!
