Exciting thing!
Let me back up… this might come as a surprise, but I’m not one to accessorize. I hardly EVER wear jewelry (other than my wedding ring). I can’t decide if it’s because I’m a plain kinda girl, or just lazy. But that doesn’t matter. The point here is that this has carried over into my home decorating. In the past few months, I’ve decided to make a conscious effort to incorporate more plants and throw pillows into my life.
So when my friend Wendy sent me one of her GORGEOUS throw pillows just out of the blue, I did a little happy dance! Getting packages is fun, but I’m usually expecting something… so this was a super fun day! And having never actually met her in person (loooong story), she knows my taste pretty well.
I mean… could anything go more perfectly in the orange chair?
I love the extra texture that it adds to the living room!
(And while we’re speaking of home accessories, I’ll have you know that there’s FINALLY a plan for the curtains. I’ll be in touch)
ALL OF THIS TO SAY… that Wendy is generously giving away $50 bones towards her shop Pooh Pooh Pillows!! And her prices are suuuuuper affordable, so you might as well load up the trunk while you’re at it!
Here are a few of my faves:
This is how it works…
You head over to Pooh Pooh Pillows and snoop around a bit, and come right back here and leave a comment telling us which one is your favorite (if you can narrow it down, that is)!! Here’s my favorite in case you’re wondering.
Play by the rules!
Love the bright colored floral!
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the indoor/outdoor zigzag chevron fabric pillows, perfect colours for my living room! Thanks so much for offering this! 🙂
Ooooh, love the Decorative throw pillow cover. Silver metallic rose scroll design fabric. It is so pretty and would work in several of my rooms! Nice stuff!
The french wine script pillow is great
The green chevron pillow would look awesome in my front room.
I love the blue and cream pottery barn inspired pillow, but I also love the monogrammed ones. I was just thinking that I need a letter T pillow for an old chair in my front room.
I love the red and creamy white pillow

Love the floral one you have shown on your website – in the Carol Brady top/center position. Beautiful! But her coffee bag burlaps are awesome as well…

I like the black and white clock pillow and the burlap ones! What a fun shop 🙂
Love the vintage clock pillows! So many good ones to pick from. Happy to be introduced to the site – love the bags too!
I love the burlap coffee pillows and the red ikat! I really need some new throw pillows!
my favorite is Decorative throw pillow ikat multi colored cover. Pottery Barn inspired pillow.
There is no way I could pick a favorite! I love them all! I have never really decorated and now I am starting to feel the decorating itch. Pillows seem like a good place to start
tsmith, you’re our winner!!!!!!!! Please email me asap @ sawdustandembryos@gmail.com
YAYAYAY!
Congrats!
Really digging those burlap coffee bag pillows (giraffe one especially, but that’s such a cool idea!) Really haven’t seen that before and I’m so on board. 😀
I like the pillow with the gray backing and green and yellow flowers, thanks.
(smjohns63 at yahoo dot com)
I love this one:
Red pillow, decorative throw pillow covers, red and white scroll pillow fabric
I’m torn between the green chevron and the multicolored chevron one!
I love the orange polka dot! And the black and white clock face. And…and…and…
If this posts twice my mistake buuuut I kept thinking I know I have seen that print somewhere before on the pillow she sent you….. It’s your secretary! It’s not the same print but it made me think of it 🙂 ok, on with your life lol. Mfjmail@yahoo.com
You were right! Hard to pick…. Mine was described as this… Decorative throw pillow cover with steel blue gray design on one side and tiled look on other. Slight sheen. It’s a pattern pillow with dark gray and a lighter gray on the other side AND its a flip design! The back is a tiled print! I would normally pick bright colors, too and I also LOVE the one she sent you! Mfjmail@yahoo.com
The black and white trellis pillow would look great on my couch ;)Thanks for the giveaway!
OMG I can’t decide. I can think of a TON of different places in my house that NEED these pillows. LOVE LOVE LOVE.
Ooh, the Robert Allen ikat indigo would look beautiful on my new couch!
I Love the peacock feather pillow!!! However, they are all wonderful!!! Thanks for the giveaway!!!!
It seems that the Postal French Script is a fan favorite, because it’s mine too! This is an awesome give away, thank you Wendy, Beth and Nick!
I love the Postal French script back by a Copen check pillow. Thank you so much for this giveaway!
I don’t often participate in giveaways, but when I saw these pillows, I couldn’t refrain. All the pillows have their own merits, but the one we’d cherish most in our farm house living room is the postal script pillow. It would be proudly displayed near two steamer trunks that once belonged to my grandparents (now deceased). My grandfather used to work for the post office on the railroad, and my grandmother and I enjoyed written correspondence with each other for many years. The postal script pillow is the one that belongs here, followed closely by the blue angel wings pillow. Having either would be like getting hugs from them both. Thanks for hosting the giveaway and introducing us to these gorgeous mementos. ~~Swan
Talk about difficult to narrow down…I like the blue Ty Pennington Extreme Home Makeover Edition pattern pillow. It would match our somewhat plain couch so nicely. I also really like the spring flower pillows with all the pretty pink and purple flowers. They would just add fresh air to a room in an instant!
I’m supposed to pick a favorite out of all these fabulous pillows? Well, if I must…
Red pillow, decorative throw pillow covers, red and white scroll pillow fabric!
Thanks for the giveaway! I love the burlap pillows … especially with the giraffe! I like a little quirk.
I found a few I loved, but the medallion pattern/circle pattern is my favorite. http://www.etsy.com/listing/129885043/decorative-throw-pillow-cover-indoor?ref=shop_home_active
Decisions decisions! 😉 what an awesome give away! Hubby and I agree that our fave is the burlap that reads “the bold standard” love it! 😀

I love the burlap covers and messenger bags. Of course all of the graphic pillows, trellis etc. are gorgeous. Two would not be enough.
I love them, but next week we’re off to visit our daughter and her beau-AND decorate their new-to-them apartment, so I need these pillows for them!
I LOVE the peacock feather one for their Mad Men-ish place 🙂

I love the white with black trellis pattern! It would look amazing on my black coach. I would throw a metallic rose in the mix, too! Great patterns…hard to choose just one!

The metallic rose is adorable… Cute and edgy at the same time.. LOVE IT!!
I love the metallic rose 🙂

I love this one!
Decorative throw pillow cover. Traditional and elegant floral pattern features fall colors. Browns, reds, golds.
She has some very beautiful pillows in her Etsy shop. My fav, however, is the white pillow with the orange trellis pattern on them. Very sassy if I do say so myself! I am also partial to the ones you picked out. Love the pink and orange together!
Hard to narrow it down – like the whimsy of this one best: Decorative throw pillow cover made from home decor fabric Oslo blue and red accent pillows (birds and leaves in bold colors)
I know you have the orange bird pillow picture above, but I think that one is my favorite from all the ones on her site!
I love the burlap fleur de lis pillow!
Blue & white wide striped with red vine/bird down the center. I love. That. Pillow.
i love the burlap ones! and the Decorative throw pillow cover indoor outdoor fabric medallion pattern circle pattern – that one would be perfect for my new chair!

My Favorite is the Decorative throw pillow cover indoor outdoor fabric medallion pattern circle pattern, so cute for patio!!
I love LOVE love the burlap bag covers! So cute!!!
So hard to choose…but these are very pretty.. emerald green pillows, spring pillows, hgtv fabric pillows
There are so many that I love but I like the ikat multi colored and I can’t believe how inexpensive they are I will definitely be shopping there.Sandy B pooksiepoo@hotmail.com
I am loving the burlap pillows…so cool! But I am also a sucker for ikat…hard choice! I would have to flip a coin;)
I can’t get enough of the Decorative throw pillow ikat multi colored! Win or lose, I’ll definitely be checking out their etsy shop!!
I love coffee, and I love coffee pillows! Love the burlap with the giraffe
So many beautiful pillows!
I’m digging on the gray scroll design myself…it’d look great in my new gray/white/navy living room.
Can’t wait to see your idea for the curtains!
I love the fun print of the floral/spring pillows, and I also love the Postal French script print pillow.
I love the white pillow with yellow dandelion print! It would fit perfectly in my living room!
So many to love so it was very hard to choose, but based on the sofa we want pillows for and the room it’s in I’d say my favorite is the Postal French script print back by a Copen check. There were some others that I also love for other rooms. Beautiful work!
Love the bird/peacock pillow!
Hmm…so hard to choose. I would probably go for the floral rose scroll design one or the moroccan one.
The coffee & burlap ones are my faves, none in particular. Would love to win one & may just have to purchase a couple. 🙂 Thanks.

The lime green chevron would be a great addition to my living room!
Such fun pillows! I love too many of them, however if I have to pick it would be:

and

Love the Ikat one in the top third pic you have. She has great stuff for great prices! Lisa Duke
I like so many, including the ones you like. But for my home I’d have to go with the Turquoise geometric velvet throw pillow lumbar pillow. I love a good lumbar pillow.
they’re all so adorable and different! BUT i love the peacock pillow – gives a great burst of color and would stand out on a brown couch!
I love the red/green floral pillow with the color blocked royal blue stripe down the middle. It would be fun to design a room around, maybe a not-too-girl girl’s nursery?
Gah – I love this one! http://www.etsy.com/listing/112148207/decorative-throw-pillow-cover-ikat?ref=shop_home_active

The “Decorative throw pillow cover indoor outdoor fabric medallion pattern circle pattern” would go nice with our couch. We got a new puppy and he has destroyed every pillow cushion on our couch. We need new pillows! 🙂 The matching colored “Decorative throw pillows covers indoor outdoor fabric zigzag chevron fabric” would be nice also!
Im LOVING the burlap coffee bag pillows – they’d look amazeballz on my back porch futon!
I adore this one for the most http://www.etsy.com/listing/129117420/decorative-pillows-throw-pillows-pillow?ref=shop_home_active
I LOVE that burlap giraffe pillow!!!!
It’s hard to just pick one! I do love the burlap pillows though.
I love the Dunn Bros Coffee pillow with the elephant! All of the burlap pillows have so much character!
I love the vintage clock lumbar pillow!
I really like the green ikat on her main page, but didn’t see it in her Etsy shop, so I will go with green chevron! Also, my 21st birthday is Monday, so it would be an awesome birthday present to win! 🙂
The vintage clock pattern one rocks my socks off. The oval geometric pattern pillow is the same fabric we bought for our upcoming upholstered headboard.
Definitely the Oslo Grey/Orange covers – goes perfectly with my living room and I love birds 🙂
http://www.etsy.com/listing/119744400/decorative-throw-pillow-cover-made-from?ref=shop_home_active
Love, love the yellow dandelion pillow!!! It would be the perfect pop of color with my new black and white striped drapes! 🙂
http://www.etsy.com/listing/127433480/decorative-throw-pillow-dandelion?ref=shop_home_active
The “Brown, cream and turquoise blue linen color blocked on one side & Waverly fabric Panama Wave on one side” would go great in my living room. The peacock feathers is awesome too!
I’m really liking the zigzag chevron fabric. 🙂
The Decorative pillow cover with brick red and white burlap would look great in our living room. I know I should sew my own but can’t get motivated to.
I am in love with the Dandelion premier print pillow! I would also agree with some of the other people and say that the medallion pattern circle pattern pillow was adorable also!
http://www.etsy.com/listing/153774090/red-pillow-decorative-throw-pillow?ref=shop_home_active The red scrollwork one would beautifully update my boring navy sofa!
I love the black and white pillows. kristyb@fcog.com

I love the medallion pattern circle pattern, but several others caught my eye as well.
Ikat – anything Ikat. Love the Ikat!
I love the “medallion pattern circle pattern pillow” but my eye immediately caught the “Yellow chevron bucket bag” too!
I know I’m supposed to be looking at pillows, but the Table runner orange runner red runner indoor outdoor fabric is gorgeous! But I do so love the Decorative pillows accent pillows throw pillows bird pillows.
The Decorative throw pillow ikat multi colored cover. Pottery Barn inspired pillow is so beautiful!!!! (http://www.etsy.com/listing/117301597/decorative-throw-pillow-ikat-multi?ref=shop_home_active)
Ooohhh..I love the orange/brown/turquoise medallion pattern!!

I LOVE the peacock feather pillow!! But you’re right… it’s hard to pick just one!
Love these!
http://www.etsy.com/listing/129882589/decorative-pillow-throw-pillow-cover?ref=shop_home_active
But they’re all so cute!
oh her pillows are super cute! I love the red and creamy white accent pillow!
I really like the burlap pillow with the giraffe on it
Okay, I am sincerely beginning to feel a real kismet kind of connection to you…I looked through all of the pillows and although I love the burlaps (esp the messenger bags!) and the Postal French, I can’t get away from the color in these: http://www.etsy.com/listing/129118031/decorative-pillows-throw-pillows-pillow?ref=shop_home_active …the same ones you like as your faves. Then just to be sure, I looked one more time just now and I stand by my choice above as my choice for the giveaway, but just to duly note, I was drawn to this one as well: http://www.etsy.com/listing/119929055/decorative-throw-pillow-cover-in-brown?ref=shop_home_active
I soon realized the color and pattern on the side of this one is the same as the one http://poohpoohpillows.com/ gifted you with that is now beautifully adorning your orange chair. Anyway, just a kismet kind of day I guess!
I love the white line pillows with the orange graphic design
http://www.etsy.com/listing/150824901/decorative-pillows-throw-pillows-pillow?ref=shop_home_active
