Design Dish: Pillow Talk

  1. Claire Davis says:

    I completely agree with your pillow style! When a pillow needs to be functional (Ex your dinging room), I leave it full. When it is decorative and you probably wont sit down and lean up against it I karate chop it!

  2. LifeLoveLuxe says:

    I’m “thumbs down” on The Chop. I think, if done correctly, it looks way too formal. And if done incorrectly, it looks way too sloppy. Instad, I like my pillows to look fluffed, and full, and luxurious.

  3. The traditional full look is my preference, and I always use feather inserts. I can see where a “chop” gives a little depth for a photo shoot.

  4. Elizabeth says:

    I’m having some major pillow envy! Where’s the one in the front on top and the two rectangle ones in the lower photo?

    I do both, depends on the pillow and the space!

  5. Julie says:

    I have no problems with the chop, but I have to say, that when I do do it, I laugh because I know some consider it to be a huge “no no”. I like your stand on it, to each their own and it can work.

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.

Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.

On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.

Fall is the perfect season to host an outdoor movie night in your backyard! It’s that time of year when outdoor furniture is still outside and it gets dark earlier than the summer which means your little kiddos can enjoy the movie night as well. It’s so nice to transform your backyard with cozy blankets, […]

For the longest time our backyard was mainly just grass and a little small area where we laid down some pavers so that we could set out a little plastic table/chairs during the summer. Not exactly ideal for entertaining. For the past couple of years we have wanted to build a deck and enjoy the […]
