The Hunt For The Perfect Pillow

Saturday, April 27th, 2013

I am on a mission assigned to find the picture perfect pillow to finish up a bedroom ensemble:

As you know, it is hard work finding the just- right style, color and pattern to work with the rest of your room design:

The pillows are like the jewelry of the room, don’t you think? It is a great way to show off your personality:

I am looking for a pillow, must be striped with blues and whites that will finish up a new redesigned bedroom here. She ordered the wave pillow of the three I suggested, but the background ended up being more of a tan color than the white that was shown online:

She suggested stripes so the bedroom will be a little more masculine for her husband. So I am now hunting for a multi-striped blue pillow.

My go-to pillow shopping usually starts with these sites:

Pottery Barn

Crate&Barrel

Target

Zinc Door

Joss and Main

But my best finds seem to be at Etsy:

Now I am starting to have more luck looking. She will love this one I bet:

I now have an assortment to show her that will all work in her room beautifully. Which blue striped do you like best? I will let you know which pillow wins. Do you have any othergo to sources to find unique pillows? We would love to hear them.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Online Living Room Design Plan

Saturday, April 21st, 2012

Recently an online client wrote and asked if I could help her with a design plan for her living room working with a color palette she fell in love with. She found this combination at designseeds.com :

Italian Colors

I also love these colors! So pretty. I found a couple pillows at crateandbarrel.com and here and there online that I sent her. I wanted to see which see loved best to get a better sense of her style:

And the winner for favorite pillow:

She had a white sofa (easy to work with!) and this is the design plan I presented her:

She was very happy with everything and is going to purchase the items over time.  I just wanted to share with you!

Have a great weekend my friends!

Great Accessory Finds

Aren’t the colors in this Crate&Barrel striped throw gorgeous? I found it shopping online and I bought it for myself because I liked it so much! Look how pretty this pillow is that I can use to go with it:

 

Crate&Barrel

I really love this wall art below. It is a 20×200 print, sold through West Elm:

20x200 Wall Art, Typograph 5

I think it can be used to either dress up or down a room. It creates a look that is very fresh and clean. It is a good size too. 30” x 40”.

20x200 Wall Art, Typograph 5

I love, love this vase:

TaviraVaseAVF11crate&barrel

Vases are so easy and versatile to decorate with. One of the best features of a vase is that it looks great alone or with flowers.

Another great accessory I love that can be used in so many different decorating scenes:

Pocketwatch Clock, Small, Bronze finishpotterybarn

I love the 10” depth of these Pottery Barn shelves:

Rustic Wood Shelf

Try using three of the same length (2’, 3’ or 4 foot) spaced evenly together or three different shelf lengths together to decorate a entire wall:

Rustic Wood Shelf

Have you seen this new wall art from Pier One?:

Celebration Tree Art                   Royal Radiance Wall Art

Pretty Brushstrokes Art

Silhouette Wall Art

All so bold and beautiful! Plus they are all large prints- big is better!

Color Extraordinaire Eileen Kathryn Boyd

Wednesday, August 24th, 2011

Have you noticed the bold and beautiful design work of interior designer Eileen Kathryn Boyd is everywhere lately? Her rooms are so full of life, so well designed, all in such great color proportions.

Isn’t the room above gorgeous!! OMG. Love, love, love.

She blends traditional with modern, throws in some bold color and magic is made! Eileen is known for drawing her inspirations from the fashion runways and bringing them to life on her showroom floor as well as inspiring bold works of art.

Wow! Love it!

I bet you have noticed her fabrics in the Duralee ads:

Her work reminds me of Susan Sargent whose bold, bright use of color and fabric I have always loved:

Book1

Her home, that was featured in Lonnie Magazine in December 2010 is just beautiful:

Pretty amazing isn’t she??  Just gorgeous.

So fresh and exciting don’t you agree?
