Pops of Pillows!



One of the the simplest ways to change the look of a room, 
especially in an apartment where you are not allowed to paint,  is by popping some new throw pillows into the space!  That's why I was so excited last  last week when I found these fabulous pillows on sale from West Elm!!  I have been on the hunt for new pillows since we updated the sofa.  In case you forgot, we updated our sofa in February!   So yeah that's a really long time!!  I guess you can say I am SUPER picky!   They got here super fast, all but one that is.   The last pillow I ordered is back ordered until the end of November!  Bummer I know!    But I'm just loving how fresh and bright it all looks with the new gold pillows!    Here's how my lovely new pops of pillows look on my sofa!
































I LOVE how this whole room is coming together!!  I still have about a bazzillion other things to do, but slowly  it's starting to feel like the room I was picturing when I started it's transformation back in February! 
Just for the curious peep out there, you can see how the room progressed here


Oh, I have a fabulous Giveaway starting tomorrow!  So Don't forget to come back and check that out!
*UPDATE- come join the Shabby Apple Giveaway here!!

  29. I love your blog, newly discovered, I love your cushions and it has given me the idea to brighten up my living room this summer (am in New Zealand so Summer around the corner).

    I have a neutral scheme in my house and feel its about time I brought some colour into my living area. I just introduced duck egg blue by putting some old French shutters on the wall behind my bed and love it.

    Sometimes I forget about colour even tend to stick to creams and beiges with fashion.

    I will visit again.
