Affordable throw pillows

How great would these be against a white or pale blue couch? I just saw this site called Wrapables for affordable throw pillows, cushion covers, and fillers among other things. Some are as low as $21.95...

Williams-Sonoma Home

I saw this image on dreamhouse cammy, and even though I cannot translate the blog, I love looking at her photos for inspiration. The Williams-Sonoma Home line of fabrics are so fun and bold. I chatted with a contact there to get a little more information about their newer products and design services. All of their stores have designers on site for advice and guidance, which is great if you live nearby. For any of us gals in the DC area, the closest shop is near Philly. So, their website WS Home will have to suffice until we see one. The site makes choosing super easy by enabling online viewing to swap out fabric choices with different pieces. If nothing else, for beautiful inspiration, even if you aren't in the market for a new piece. Oh, and all of their upholstered furniture is made in the US.

I adore dwell...

I just discovered dwell, through one very stylish friend...you know who you are! I love this design shop. Their studio is NYC based, but you can peruse products and fabrics to order online. Lines include: dwell, dwellbaby, dwellkids, and dwelltable.

Kim Seybert pillows at Harbor Palm

I'm wild about coral right now... I realize it's popping up everywhere, (and has been for awhile) but I can't help being drawn to the look. Just last week we stopped into St. Michael's, MD for the day, and stumbled upon a ridiculously cute shop in an old early 1900's house called Harbor Palm. At that moment, like so many before, I told my husband that I was ready to ditch the city and move to the Eastern Shore to embrace the good life... Unfortunately for me (albeit happiness for my husband's wallet), the shop was closed that particular day. I did steal a peek in the window, however, at the period original woodwork and the myriad of wares. The pillows alone inspired me to redo our guest room. Harbor Palm carries such designers as Kim Seybert who creates these gorgeous pillows...
