Every Small Win Counts

Tonight I stopped by my two "go-to" spots for home decor and I was not moved by anything I saw (which is unusual). I think with everything I have going on with business and adjusting from vacay, my inspiration is none exisistence. So.... in an efffort to get my mojo back I am posting my small win to remind me that although small I am making a little progress.
About a week, well maybe for the past few weeks, I was having a serious dilemma over what pillows I wanted for my sofa. The pillows that came with it wasn't exactly what I was looking for and I needed to find a way to add color and pull my fab zebra chair in without being to matchy matchy.

Original Pillows



So what did I come up with? Well first I found these awesome blue and maize (yellow) colored pillows at my "go to". They were originally $150 pillows (according to the manufacturer's website), I got them for $14.99 each. What a steal right? But they only had three.

Well to me the couch looks a little empty with three and was still missing the tie-together elements (to my chair).

So the hunt for pillows that could bring it all together took me back to my "spot" where I found my new pillows. Two pillows for $24.99, but according to the manufacturer's website similar pillows go for $100+ so I would consider these a steal.

What do you think, do they work?
