Saturday Shopping – Pillows

I didn’t get my Thursday’s Favorites post done on Thursday, so decided I would pick out some favorites for my Saturday Shopping post. As I mentioned last Wednesday, seven days of blogging is a bit too much, so I am tweaking and trying to figure out my favorite topics and will probably settle on three of four posts a week. That will give me three days to either not blog or post on some random topic.

I have been looking at pillows on Etsy all week. I know, I know, I was supposed to be getting my new shop ready and posting vintage things and I did work on it but…oh, well, I just don’t have a good excuse for being bad. So, I won’t try to make up any, I’ll just say it, I am addicted to pillows. I love them! When my rooms start to get boring, the first thing I replace or recover are the pillows. Changing out the pillows is a quick and easy way to get a fresh look at little cost. My husband occasionally has enough of it and says, “no more pillows!”  The last time he said that there were eight pillows on our queen sized bed. I like sleeping with pillows, he does not. It has been quite a while since I’ve heard any complaints from him so, I thought it would be safe to at least take a peek and see what kinds of great pillows I might find at Etsy.  I have to tell you, there are some fabulous pillows out there and I have only scratched the surface with what I’ve listed here.

I don’t know why I started looking at black and white pillows. Black and white simply won’t work in a single room in my house. But I love black and white…so sophisticated, classic. Now that I have been looking at them, I am getting all kinds of ideas for how I might design a room around these beauties, using a lot of red and some black and white photographs with a splash of turquoise here and there. Probably sounds strange but it looks good in my mind’s eye.
