Pillow Love: Get the Look for Less
I’ve admired the beautiful Sheesha pillows ever since I first saw ‘em in the living room below. Unfortunately though the price tag on these babies is a bit more than I am able and willing to shell out for a pillow. John Robshaw sells a 20×20 version (pictured below right) for $200 (each!) and Jayson Home and Garden sells ‘em for $250 for the 20×20 version and $345 for the 26×26 version (yikes!).

Recently I was excited to find a few pillows that have a similar look for much much less. West Elm sells the Bijoux Dots Pillow (below left) for $34.00, and Etsy seller The Home Centric sells the White Mirrors Throw Pillow (below right) for $33.20 as well as the Light Beige Reflections Throw Pillow for $33.20 to $39.90 (price depending on size).

P.S. I’m loving the large selection at The Home Centric! Check out her shop for more fabulous pillows!

DIY Artwork: Tonal Concentric Squares
Given my love for the pillows mentioned in this post its no surprise I’m drawn to this artwork:

It’s a similar idea; tonal concentric squares. What I love is that the color combos are endless and it’s an easy DIY paint or Photoshop project. Great way to inject color into a space!
BTW you can find pillows similar to the ones in the above mentioned post over at Jonathan Adler:


The cool thing? The colors are customizable!

Bolster Pillows
Bolster pillows are a nice alternative {or addition} to using common square/rectangular pillows. They look great in simple solid colored fabrics which don’t detract attention from their cylindrical shape.
Here they make an appearance in the loveliest of rooms, looking fabulous on the sofas and chaises:

Two Laptop Cases I’m Loving
The beautiful use of natural materials and the elegant handmade detailing of this one makes it so chic.



Portel Natural Felt Case
The fact that this one disguises your laptop as a vintage literature book is just plain cool. I love creative design and a sense of humor.



Can’t decide which I’d rather have for my own macbook. For now, they’ll both go on my wish list

Pillow Love

living room by Jan Showers
The design is simple: a square within a square {and in some cases within another square}, in colors that coordinate perfectly with each room’s color palette.
