Pillows!

It’s a pillow party!

This morning I made a fast and loose detour to Home Goods before hitting Trader Joe’s. I don’t know what I was expecting to find, but man, I think I made out well. I couldn’t be happier about all the bright colors and patterns that seem to be cropping up everywhere. I hope to infuse them more into my wardrobe (just checked and I still have a ton of black, white, and black and white stripes in there), but for now I will cover the living room in them.

I have been trying to think of a way to brighten up the living room and inject a little more pizazz in there. My roommate bought two white couches, which are obviously a stain hazard, but also essentially blank canvases. The dark red pillows were perfect for fall and winter, but it’s spring now and it’s time to Jazz It Up!! <—(trademark still pending on that slogan)

 

 

 

I really like the mix of prints. The floral pillows on the right have the exact same shade of green in them as those on the left so the two patterns look really nice together. I’m keeping two of the dark red pillows there because I like the way they boeuf up the cushion factor. Do you not love the ironing board, fold-up papasan chair, and mismatched blankets in the background? Storage is a wee bit of an issue here in our doll house, so I can’t make them disappear, but I can put a band-aid over them, à la pillows.
