Colorful Spring Pillow Combos

Apr52019

You know I don’t put a lot of weight on trends or color forecasts but this year’s Pantone Spring and Summer palette is so much fun. Colorful, happy combos that are perfect for updating a tired leather sofa or an all-tan set of living room furniture. A couple of good pillows may be worth the investment. They can change the whole feel of a room without buying new furniture or even painting a wall. I’ve put together some pretty fabric combos below (all found on Etsy) that are inspired by the bold shades forecasted for fashion.

5 Etsy Textile Shops to Bookmark

Jan282019

I always like to share good Etsy sources and sellers. I’ve personally used several of these and have had great experiences. Here are five textile shops you might want to bookmark:

The Pillow Cover Store: You can’t beat the prices on all sizes of pillow covers (and they’re having a sale with even more off today!).

Windows by Melissa: I’ve used Melissa several times for roman shades and have always been happy. She does great work and is always super helpful. You can send your fabric directly to her and she can also help you source. It’s like having your own workroom without ever leaving your house.

RockinCushions: Check out their $12-$14 pillow covers–most with low or free shipping. They’re 18″ which is the perfect size for a 20″ down insert. They also make IKEA chair pad covers.

Southern Linens: If you’re wanting to give your bedding a lift, I love this shop’s monogrammed shams. They’re a great alternative to the much pricier and popular Leontine Linens.

KLineDeco: Looking for something special? I’m including this shop for their large selection of hard-to-find designer fabrics. They have some really pretty pillow covers. Splurge on one or two of these statement pillows and pair with covers from one of the less expensive shops I’ve included for a good mix.

Peel & Stick Wallpaper: Powder Room Picks

Oct102018

I’m following up my post about peel and stick wallpaper for kids’ rooms with more pretty patterns that I think would be perfect for a powder room. There are several reasons I think wallpaper is a perfect option for a powder room. They’re small so less paper is required, and they can handle a “big” pattern since there won’t be much of it. And if you have a really open floor plan, you can still do something special with a powder room since it’s its own space. It doesn’t necessarily have to flow with everything else. Go crazy. Pick the zebras. ;)
