Pillow Talk

What do you get when you add Pantone's 2011 color, Honeysuckle,


  to my constant daydreaming about all things spring,


and my passion for switching up the decor in my living room??

Voila.

 

Whatcha think?! Thanks to my blogger buddy, Megan, I scored a credit from a giveaway on her blog to the shop Plush Studio. If you've never checked out Erin's work before, it's a must! Her pillows are amazing.

And there are some other new guys from World Market joining these beauties on my living room couch.

 

 

Now I know it's a looooot of color we're working with in the living room now, but bear with me! It's all part of a master plan. You all know that I have never been afraid to throw out a bunch of bold colors and see what happens (ahem, navy dining room anyone?!). I might be crazy, but I'm going to see if I can make all of these beautiful colors work together!

Can you see how the colors fit in with the new mantle redo?


 I think the next step is to throw in a pillow (or some other kind of fabric- window treatments?) that ties all of the existing colors in together. Maybe something like this?

 


 
 
I love using all of these fun colors... just in time for spring to come! Tis the season.

    Love those pillows! I think that lumbar would be a perfect way to pull it all together! But then I have a million colors in my house that I think 'work'! haha! :)

    Le sigh ...

    Love this post! I'm CRAVING spring and all things it brings with it (including my terrible allergies -- I don't care ... I'll deal).

    P.S. I'm waiting for OPI, Essie, or Chanel to do a Pantone-inspired nail polish line -- Wouldn't that be wonderful?!

    So cute! I don't think it's too much at all!! Love the print and how lucky you are to have won those adorable pillows. Also, I love the title of your post...my roommate always calls talking in bed together late at night "pillow talk" but I've never heard that term. I kinda love it (:

    I love those pillows, just the right amount of pink - I think some cool panels - would look great maybe a cool plaid you need another pattern - something with the navy and pink and green... hmm off to look!
