The Pouf That Started It All

Hello everyone!

Warning:  Cute dog sleeping in photos.  May cause a serious distraction.

The other day, while shopping at Target, I found this darling blue and white striped pouf.  I was drawn to it immediately because it reminded me of a grain sack.  I loved it, but thought, "where would I put it?" I decided to grab it anyway because I knew I might regret it later.    Well, as soon as I brought it inside, it went right where it belonged. 


I loved it next to the white slip covered chair.  It filled in an empty spot and added a bit of pattern and color.
Here is a better look at it.


But, then the rest of the room looked a little bit off.  So, what else was I to do but start making some subtle changes?  It was the least I could do to make this new pouf feel at home.  

So, out came some blue and white pillows.


And of course, I needed some blue and white flowers behind the sofa.





Then I draped one of my vintage blue and white grain sacks over the trunk.


And a blue and white monogrammed tea towel over the back of this chair.


I tried to make the room feel balanced.
 I would show you one more chair with blue and white pillows, but my dog decided to take over that one too just before I grabbed my camera.  He's such a stinker!

So, I'll leave you with this shot instead.


We are enjoying a warming trend outside now.  I can't begin to tell you how lovely it feels!  And, I hope for all of you still digging out from under the snow, you'll have a change in the weather soon too.

Thanks for stopping by.
