«Oldest ‹Older 1 – 200 of 253 Newer› Newest»Those pillows are fabulous! My first project for the new year is to put a banquette in the kitchen, and was the subject of my last post. I plan to make it public, that way, I have to finish it!
PS. Use random.org to choose your winner. It makes it less stressful.
I love this fabric too. My design resolution is simply to freshen up. I am going to re-do the bedding in the master bedroom (two kids and two dogs and five years has really all taken their toll!) and I am going to recover our outdoor furniture this spring. My husband has informed me that he never liked the fabric and he can't stand another year of it. Funny he never told me when I showed him swatches a few years back - MEN! Anyways, one more: i want to completely re-do my home office on a small budget. Noone ever goes in there but me - so I don't want to spend a lot. But I am really feeling the need to be in a prettier space. Stay tuned! Love,Linda at SheSez.com
Very nice pillows. I'm seeing that pattern in quite a few magazines. My initial project for 2010 is to recover 2 wingback chairs and an ottoman. The next project is to paint our stair risers following that is to install a wood floor in our upstairs hall way (our first floor in this home has all wood flooring along with our stairs). Currently, we are on track, as I shipped the wingbacks out last week to the upholster. Signing off from the Clevelands @ clevelan.d@sbcglobal.net.
I love those pillows! This year I'm going to freshen up my bedroom. I need to make new curtains and get a new headboard.
Oi Vie! I LOVE THOSE PILLOWS! My design intentions for 2010 are many but first on the long-ish list will be the master bedroom. I want to lighten up and get more girlie and cozy. "Beachy-Glam" is the goal. Creamy linen colored walls with crisp white trim,espresso toned matchstick blinds, white slipcovered bed and wingback chairs,darker wood, rustic type end tables, mercury glass, Clear glass vessles with seashells and coral, white glossy frames with black & white and full color large photo prints. Pops of color would come from eclectic patterned accent pillows (hint-hint)and different bedding & fun chotskies but the base scheme would be calm and serene neutrals. Can't wait!!!!
We've just renovated a home, so my 2010 goal is to take it from new looking to warm and cozy (these pillows would help me do just that). I'd love for our home to be one that people know they can come to relax, be authentic and share life.
Beautiful pillows! My design resolution (and maybe my life resolution) is to be BOLD. For fun I wore this crazy red sweater for Christmas. I got a ton of compliments on how good the color looked on me. I started thinking about how everything in my closet and home are understated and how fun it would be to just kick it up! I decided my first step is going to be an orange accent wall behind my blue handcarved asian armoire! That will be a great start to a beautifully bold 2010! Happy New Year everyone!
I am definitely going to simplify and freshen up...especially in the bedroom area and hopefully find that picture for my living room that has been years in the searching....Happy New Year! :)
I love this fabric! My resolutions are many but one of the main ones is to paint and make back & seat cushions for the antique dining room chairs I bought months ago. It's going to be a big project but I can't wait to see them all finished! Thanks for the awesome giveaway - Megan at ukmegs@hotmail.com
Love those pillows! Please count me in. My resolution for 2010 is to finally finish doing the guest bedroom..paint first, then hang the art and other pieces I bought for the walls! Can't stand looking at it plain any longer!
My resolution for 2010 is to only buy pieces I LOVE! And I love these pillows! www.notesbyamy.blogspot.com
Oh I love this fabric and it would look so good on my couch! My resolution is to organize my studio.
beautiful pillows!
my design resolution for 2010 is to buy a house and fix it up. we are renting right now, and it is driving me bananas.
i actually started a blog just to document all of my past projects, and to file away great ideas so i will be ready for that next house.
those pillows would look great in any room!
My decor/design resolution for 2010 is to find a desk for my new apartment which is both fun, small, and has great storage. I currently do not have a desk, and have been slowly collecting furniture for my first apartment. I've been waiting because I've been trying to find furniture that doesn't scream "first apartment."
I absolutely LOVE these pillows.

How exciting. My design resolution is to finally get the window hardware hung. Its been waiting since June and my poor windows are so dull without it!!
royalapothic.com
My design resolution is to create all my own artwork for the walls.
Itsmelealee@gmail.com
Love the pillows. They would look awesome on my black four poster bed! My resolution this year is to declutter and make my home a cozy haven by only buying things that I love.
ann.stone.2000@gmail.com
I'm such a huge fan of this print! My decorating resolution for 2010 is to simplify. We are moving to Manhattan in the summer, so I am starting now to downsize and get rid of stuff. No more buying or storing an object because it's cool or cheap. I'll only be keeping the furnishings that I really really love. I keep thinking how amazing that will feel - to be surrounded only by the things that really speak to me!
I'm including a link to your giveaway in my post tomorrow.
Happy New Year!!

I LOVE those pillows! My husband and I just moved into our first home and we have NOTHING so we are starting from a blank slate. We are making the home office, living room and master bedroom our priorities. As you can imagine, we have tons of things to do: pick paint colors, wallpaper, furniture, etc. Those pillows would make a statement in our living room as we are going for a modern/eclectic style and are planning to incorporate geometric shapes. - Farah
Last year it was finishing off a Tuscan scene mural on our 'rented' house dining room wall that I started two years ago. This year I aim to add more vintage hatboxes to my ecclectic decor and create more designer painted furniture. My creative spirit would love to add these magnificent cushions close to my copy of French Essence purchased recently for me by my wonderful hubby!
My design resolution is to turn our attached garage and our dining room (which borders the garage) into a family room! We added a baby boy to our family in late October and we have an almost three year old daughter, and our small living room just got a whole lot smaller! It will become the new dining room instead! The fabric on these pillows could inspire the palette - grays and browns and creams!
Love the pillows! In 2010 I would like to redo my kitchen completely. cindyprobst@yahoo.com
I must have the pillows...they are gorgeous! Great giveaway. My goal is to move all the furniture out of my garage and find it a home.
We are rebuilding the first floor of our beach house after a storm before Thanksgiving flooded it.

Please,not so much white!!! My new years resolution is no more white trim unless I have white in the room. All these white rooms look alike,their not memorable, where is the design talent to be able to mix colors,patterns,and textures.It might seemly look clean and fresh at the start of the design, but how long ,and how easy is it to live in an all white room?
Wow, that fabric is spectacular! My goal for this year is to 1. declutter and 2. bring in more white linen curtains! Why? Our family is adding baby #2 in a few months and I need to feel that my surroundings are calm while experiencing new motherhood again!
Love this fabric. My goal is to find the time to finally start a blog to post my projects (haven't mustered up the confidence yet), things I love (like these pillows) and life in general.
My decor resolution is to get my place to the point where it doesn't look like it's in progress. It doesn't have to be done, but it doesn't have to look like a never ending project!
Oooh, I NEED these pillows :)
My design resolution for 2010 is to actually "design" less in my own house and to make it feel more like my family's home by displaying kids' artwork, letting them actually sit on the furniture :), and just relaxing a bit, even if everything isn't "perfect."
Love the pillows...and your style! My design resolution is to freshen up my own home with more of my own design projects - instead of just dreaming about them or carrying them out in someone else's home. Thanks for the inspiration!
My decor resolution is keeping everything (well, almost everything) tidy. I love it when the house looks welcoming!
Lovely giveaway!
Those pillows are fabulous!
My design resolution for 2010 is to better accessorize my home, in particular my living room. I need to bring some life in there (and these pillows would help!).
Love this fabric, and it would go perfectly in my chocolate living room. My goal this year is to freshen up with some new paint colors and accents.
Having kids is not an excuse for an ugly home.You can have nice things and comfortable upholstery.In past history people from the 1700 hundreds had lots of children and candles.
My first goal of 2010 is to finally get my home office up and running and to make sure it's a creative and beautiful space. This pillows would be a great addition to the office space!
What gorgeous pillows... they'd go with my color scheme perfectly (gray/turquoise/yellow).
My new year's design resolution is to create a design board for the house we moved into two weeks before Christmas. Visually laying everything out before filling every room out of urgency will definitely help create a cohesive look in our new home.
This year my design resolution is to declutter our laundry room. Everything ends up being piled in that room- not just laundry.
kelley765@yahoo.com
My decor resolution is to add more personal touches. I want to make some things to hang up on the walls! The walls are still kinda bare because I haven't done much thinking "it's just an apt, we'll move out in a year or so" but we'll be here for a few more months so...
Oh, those are fab! My resolution is--first, because there are a lot more--to find the perfect shade of white for our walls (that is the HARDEST color to choose, I think.) Then all the lovely pops of turquoise and emerald and (hopefully gray trellis!) will be showcased more beautifully!=.
I love the pillows as well AND they will be perfect for my design project! We just moved 1200 miles away and went from 800 sq feet to 2000 a couple of months ago. We are VERY slowly but surely setting up our new home and my project for the new year is to decorate what will be our reading room. It is right off of the entryway and is currently filled with bin upon bin of books. My goal, before the end of March, is to have it painted (gray) and have white bookshelves up. Eventually, at some point, we will pick up some comfy white chairs, but for now it's all we can afford to do! The pillows would look PERFECT in there :)
Just read about your blog on Little Green Notebook--so glad I found you!
I just completed my design goal for 2009 (just in the nick of time)--by repainting, new light fixture and styling my dining room. For 2010, I hope to re-do my girls bedroom and find some sort of stylish/discreet system for them to keep all of their "treasures".
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
These are lovely! My design resolution is to finish the living room and bedroom of my apartment. I've (gulp) lived there for a year and they're still only half finished...the life of a grad student! These pillows would accent my grey couch perfectly! Happy New Year!
Six months in the north and six months in the south ..makes decorating lots of fun..Completly differnt homes..This year I am going to bring some of the north south..
These would be beautiful in our living room! I love to change out my accessories and this would be perfect for the spring switch. My project this year is to gut and redo our master bathroom, it's the next to last project in our house and I can't wait!
Well!! This is motivating. I have been subscribing to your blog for about a year now, and have never commented. I love the pillows! We just finished building a traditional house, but I have done the interior all with a contemporary edge. For 2010, it is my goal to complete the living and dining rooms. I sold almost all of my traditional furniture, and have been waiting to ramp up the budget so that I can furnish our living and dining rooms! Thanks for getting me to comment!
My 2010 design resolution is to find fun/statement-making accents for my living room. My mantel has been bare for a year and new pillows or a throw could really liven up my couch!
Wow! Amazing giveaway. My design resolution would be to finish decorating my house this year! Since we bought our house in Nov 2008, I've been concentrating in getting my house ready. I want to make sure that I finish it this year (before I start changing things up again) These pillows will go great in my newly painted master bedroom!
My resolution is to get our master bathroom finished. And to convince my hubby of the color I want to use on the walls. :) I like a dark blue, with a teeny bit of gray in it, and he wants something lighter, that I'm afraid will look too "country blue."
awesome pillows too!
stephpax @ gmail.com
my resolution:
move out of my parent's house. that's a design move.
The pillows are fabulous! My resolution is to add some classic, quality pieces to my home instead of always relying on IKEA and Target! Also, I'd like all of the rooms in my home to be in a similar color scheme so there is unity throughout.
Count me in! My resolution is to be more decisive and finally start turning the house I've been living in for 3+ years into a HOME. No more being wishy washy and second guessing my ideas. I've already chosen Danish Modern for the overall style, and I'm sticking to it! This month's project is the bedroom, and these pillows would match my new DwellStudio Chinoiserie Duvet set perfectly. ;-) Thank you for posting this generous giveaway!
I love these pillows, too. We just finished the basement and I can't wait to decorate the new contemporary space. These pillows would look great down there. Thanks for all the great posts.
my resolution is to finally save enough money for a great new sofa.
Thanks!

I live in an 80-year-old house, so I feel like my design resolutions could be endless. First on the list — tile the kitchen backsplash as part of our ongoing kitchen facelift. Up next, tile the guest bathroom floor. It will be my first time tiling, so my fingers are crossed.
I absolutely love this fabric design and these pillows will be a great inspiration to pull the look of my living room together.
Thanks,
Shannon srdecock@gmail.com
Beautiful pillows! It would definitely match the ones I have in my living room...! My 2010 resolution is to remodel my 1980's kitchen and clean all my house's closets and donate all unused clothing to charity
my design resolution is to finally re-do our bedroom! we haven't had the time or money to touch it yet and it's a blank slate right now.
These pillows are fabulous! My new year's resolution is to re-arrange my family room to make it flow better and purchase a new sectional (in linen)...these pillows would look great!
As a renter, I'm always hesitant to make the space my own, but this year, I want to try and do that! Sounds corny, but true!
Hi,
What a great giveaway! I love those pillows. My new year's resolution is to completely redecorate my home. I've already started my first organizational project in my guest bedroom. You can see it on my blog. http://www.charmhome.blogspot.com.
xo,
Cristi
I am in love with these pillow and the print! I have so many resolutions/goals for decorating my home this year. One is to invest in quality, long-lasting pieces. No more quick fixes or "this will do" purchases. Number two is window treatments! I need to learn more about window treatments and the options out there and just dive in! Thanks for letting me share!

Fabulous pillows! Just love the fabric. My 2010 design resolution for my house would have to be to de-clutter the space! My husband and I are not the best at keeping our place picked up and clutter free. To help with this, I plan on getting a new dresser for our bedroom so clothes stop being thrown on the floor and putting a small table in our entryway with a place for our keys, hooks for our coats, and a tray or antique toast rack for our mail!
Thanks for the fab giveaway! Any reader would be lucky to have these chic pillows. :)
(email: ambrosiabags@aol.com)
those are nice!
the living room is victim to our main resolution: commit to a chair. i see club/sitting chairs all the time that i love/lust/like... but never enough to drop the money and take one home. its going to happen. i'm going to make it happen!
Love the pillows. The print is beautiful. My resolution is to de-clutter and simplify my home so I can enjoy it more.
I love those pillows! They would look great in my living room. My 2010 resolution is to find some toy storage that is design friendly.
Love the pillows. In fact, they would be perfect on my bed that I'm in the process of redoing for my 2010 resolution. Nothing makes your world seem fresher than new bedding. Have to be real careful about my choices...have to please the design expert in the house (or he thinks he is!) and I think these pillow would pass inspection. I'm always amazed how involved men have become in decorating choices. (Well, I guess they have to live in the space, also).
Enjoy your site. Very entertaining!
Happy New Year
Terri Hartley
Happy New Year!! Absolutely adore those pillows - My 2010 resolution is to declutter with my first sweet baby on the way in May! I want to remove as much stuff from our home and really concentrate on a clean and beautiful and JOYOUS home!
Thanks for the giveaway
Louise McCown (louisemccown@gmail.com)
Those would just be divine in my home!!! My first project of the year is to finish my husband's home office...why? He deserves the royal treatment after supporting me endlessly in my design career!
Fabulous giveaway!! Janell
Amazing give-away! That fabric is one of my favorites and I actually just recommended it to one of my clients!
My new years design resolution is to actually finish a room! All the rooms in my house are at almost finished stage. Whether it artwork that needs to be hung or just adding a new lightswitch I need to finish it all ASAP!
declutter..... keeping only what is beautiful or useful.
I am a young Designer and am always decorating and remodeling homes that I could NEVER afford, very cruel. SO this year I have decided to go total DIY! For every design I complete, I will try to re-create some element of the project for MY home in a cheap and eco-friendly fashion. Whether it be a resin table or an actual niche in the wall-I am doing it!
These pillows are lovely!
My design resolution for 2010 is to spend the first half of the year planning and collecting items that will bring personality and style to the new home that my husband and I will move into after our July wedding! My plan is to collect items slowly throughout the year when I find good bargains so that we can have a new place to live in where we can feel comfortable and at home, without breaking the bank!
I am getting rid off anything green and changing to black and white hues. I plan on accenting with different colors depending on the season. fall: orange. winter: red spring: yellow summer: aqua
Love these pillows! I plan to finish my master bedroom. It sounds simple, but nooooo!
My husband and I bought our first home - an old farmhouse - in December, so my new year's resolution is to decorate each room of the house in a way that is stylish, colorful, and personal - reflective of who we are.
Thanks for the opportunity to enter!
Jennifer Lewis (lewisje@earlham.edu)
Oh I want those pillows!! They are beautiful!!
My resolution for this year is to paint our family room. We bought a new home a year ago and all the rooms are the exact same color! We spend most of our time in the family room so it definitely needs to be more of a happy place :-D
These pillow are just gorgeous! My fiancee would be the first to tell you about how picky I am about pillows... thanks for the giveaway!
I have a few resolutions for 2010:
-simplify and organize my office and living room.
-find the perfect accent chair for my room.
-find affordable shelving
-and instead of adding more colors to my home, I'd love to add whites for a more refreshing feel.
Thanks! Cristina
Love the pillows! I plan to redo my son's playroom. It needs a lot of help!
sarafdodson@yahoo.com
Well, decorate a nursery for one, in colors that look grown up enough to go with the rest of our house but soft enough for a baby.
And to integrate more pops of color into the rest of the house.
My design resolution for the year year is to really add some personality to my home. I intend to do this by painting stripes in the hallway and adding pattern and texture to every room (these pillows would be a great start :). I honestly have been a big fan of this fabric for sometime now and excited about the possibility of winning some beautiful pillows. Thank you!

My design resolution=GET NEW COUCHES!! Because we've had our current ones for 11 years. It's time.
clawsonfam at yahoo dot com
In the new year I would like to de-clutter from top to bottom and get some pillows for my very bare living room sofa!
My design resolution this year is to start weeding out all the half broken furniture I accumulated in graduate school and get some nicer pieces if I can!
Love these pillows and your blog!
langton@wisc.edu
Love the pillows. My design resolution this year is to actually print and make pillows for our house. It's what I went to college for after all and I have lost track of my textile passion and have found myself doing more graphic design projects. I want to get back to my roots!
I love your blog by the way!
Thank you!

I love these pillows! my resolution is the finish my apartment. My husband and I purchased an NYC apt in July and are currently under construction. My goal is to have the apt decorated, furnished and livable by my 30th birthday, June 21st.
What a lovely giveaway...those pillows are beautiful.
My design resolution this year is to create a welcoming space in the finished parts of the basement. Looking ahead to resale, this space could be a great selling point if set up as additional family/entertaining space. My first problem is figuring out where to start...and very limited budget.
Katy McGee: Just moved into a newly built house!!
need to upholster a headboard, add color, declutter, organize... you name it. and I LOVE these pillows!!
I need to make curtains and pillows for my living room. I've been soo indecisive choosing the fabric, but I just need to make the plunge!
I have resolved to add more of me into my home. I sometimes love design so much that I fail to add more personal touches in my home like things I've inherited or pictures, etc.
Love your blog!
Design resolution for the year is to create a calm, beautiful nursery. Baby Girl is due in less than 3 months. Time to stop procrastinating.
I've resolved to add more of "me" into my home with more photos and inherited items that might not necessarily go with my design scheme but that make me happy.
love the blog!
This year I plan on purchasing my 1st home. That means decorating from start to finish. I love clean lines so these pillows would be a great start on my journey.
Yes, please! Santa brought me a new bed, so this new year I resolve to DIY a headboard!

LTP!!! (love those pillows)
My resolution is to transform my bedroom into a restful sanctuary. This includes combining two small back-to-back bathrooms into one fabulous one, and finding space for a small bathroom elsewhere, to make up for commandeering the guest bathroom to enlarge my ensuite.
For the bedroom, I'm thinking green and gold Indian silks. Those pillows, however, would be FAB on the light blue Italian fabric of my smart 96-inch living room sofa...
The reason I'm setting this as my first priority (rather than the kitchen and laundry room renos I want to do) is that the state of my bedroom has irritated me since I bought the house eight years ago. I lie in bed fantasizing about wall colors and fabric swatches. This is not restful! ;)
Technically, I'm in Canada, but I have a Washington State address too -- does that qualify me for the shipping aspect?

My decorating resolution this year is to edit, organize, and add a touch of the modern with a few contemporary classics that will mix well with the ole heirlooms.
My husband and I just moved into our first home a few months ago. Our New Years Resolution is to transform one our guest bedrooms into the ultimate creative room (this is what we've named it). Him being an architect and me a graphic designer...this kind of room is a must for us!
Love those pillows and they would look fabulous in our bedroom or in our modern yet whimsical living room!
Thanks!

My resolution is to finish my house! We have been living in construction since 2001. We added on 1500 sq. ft. and have had one finish carpenter here for 4 years completing all the custom woodwork. I'm ready to spend my days reading my favorite blogs in a CLEAN room, on my new white couch, resting up against those beautiful pillows, under the gorgeous nightime, black and white photo of our favorite city. Sounds like heaven, doesn't it?
Stunning giveaway!
My resolution is to organize and decorate my office. Since it is upstairs and no one sees it (except moi), I have not yet put any time or energy into making the space "mine". I have started collecting decor items (a pillow here, a bit of art there, etc.) but haven't put any of them to use yet, and I am dying to create a clean, cohesive, happy space for me to work! I have a hunch that if I am in love with my office, perhaps I'll even work more!
Thanks!

That print is fantastic!
My resolution is to finish decorating my bedroom. I just bought my first place back in October and the bedroom is still a bit of a design mess. I am going to make my own upholstered headboard and maybe experiment with some wallpaper.
Oh, and I forgot to include my email!

as still farily newlyweds we had a cornicopia of furniture...new years resolution= have a much more cohesive look through out our place, and a little less color.
pillows=beautiful!!!
thanks!
What beautiful pillows ! My design resolution is to actually see out one of my color schemes !! :)
Oh those pillows are JUST what I've been trying to find for my living room, which is part of my New Years resolution- actually finish the projects I've started :) Mainly pillows and a rug for my living room, actually painting the walls (apparently leaving the paint and brushes next to the wall doesn't actually cause painting to occur), etc, etc, etc.
Thanks for the giveway!
My decor resolution is to get new pillows for my sofa. Im tired of the brown and white demask. I want something w/ more color to brighten the house. I would also love to find the perfect coffee table. Tired of the ottoman. :)
ginakates@gmail.com
Unofficial resolution: declutter.
my new years resolution is to finally decorate my living room! after almost five months in my new home i've taken on the task. funny enough, last night i decided to start making my own throw pillows! too bad they are not near as awesome as these pillow! they would be a perfect addition on my couch!
ldpagan@gmail.com
My word! Look at the number of these responses!! Proof of how popular and helpful Coco and Cococozy are. Coco has helped me. Mt goal is to totally redo my rear "garden". I've been focused on the interior of my townhome until now and have accomplished a lot using a mix of MCM and Hollywood Regency design themes. Now it is time to do the small patio area, whioch in comparison to the interior looks horribly blighted and wrong. I have started with a modern fountain designed and built for me by a good friend. However I need new everything - a new wall, rear patio door, floor, furnishings and plantings. Recent pictures of Coco's own beautiful and inviting rear garden have been very inspiring!
thanks for the help!!

Happy New Year! My decorating resolution is to finally finish decorating my (relatively) new home in 2010!
Happy New Year!

My resolution is to find (and actually commit to buying) 'adult' bedroom furniture that fits in my tiny bedroom. I'm tired of living with my dresser from college!
My design resolution is to not second guess myself so much. I've passed up so many great things because I doubted myself.
Love the pillows! Would love them for my bedroom.
elizgonz@hotmail.com
I think I would change my whole bedroom to match these pillows if I won them!!!
Resolution is to quit dreaming about get my design company up and going and JUST DO IT! Also I plan on turning my second bedroom into an office to make it official! This is my resolution because I want to enjoy what I do.
-Heidi
WOW! These pillows are amazing. I love them and I love how beautiful they look in your home. I also love your design sensibility; your living room is impeccably edited.
My basic color scheme is white, fawn and silver (mostly white). My three New Year's design resolutions are to add some black to anchor the living room, to add one pattern to my neutral color scheme and to a large, easy-care green plant as well.
I love your blog and would love to win the pillows. They're absolutely gorgeous.
Best regards,
Lynn Warren
Great giveaway. Need to work on resolutions asap :)
These pillows are a perfect match for my living room! Love them....! My first 2010 resolution is to declutter the bedroom closets and donate most of the clothes to charity. After this task is accomplished, then I can plan to renovate my kitchen...it is long overdue!
The pillows are classic and would look great in in my living room...My design resolution is to repaint the dressers and night stands in my bedroom and guest room. I bought them used and they could use an update to make them fresh again. This way you achieve a few things: being creative, recycling something that may have been trashed, and completing a task that has been looming on the "to do" list!
Thanks for inspirational blog!

My decor resolution for 2010 is to have less clutter in my home. My husband and I currently live in a studio apartment, and we have more stuff than we have room for - but in a week we're finally moving to a bigger place! I have big plans for this new apartment, that include a more minimalist look, with more things stored in bins and drawers than on display. I've always loved minimalist homes - they seem like they have more room to breathe than cluttered homes.
My goal in 2010 is to revamp my master bedroom but tearing out the carpet and painting the floor a putty grey. I am going to do new trim, paint one wall a charcoal grey, and have the rest be crisp white. Wall mounted swing are lamps are going to replace my ned side lamps as well! Oh what fun it will be to see it all come together!

my resolution is not to buy every pillow/vase/lamp/mirror that strikes my fancy in the moment just because they're smaller purchases and i somehow feel less guilty spending money on little things. rather, i want to be prudent and save up for the big items that i really fall in love with and that are classic and will last a lifetime.

I love your blog and I love these pillows! My New Year's resolution is to finish furniture acquisition in my first grown up apartment. It's a studio, so there's only so much space. I still need a dresser that will serve double duty as a media stand. I love the Jonathan Adler claude modular, but its a bit out of price range.
Oh, I like you! Love these pillows.
My design/decor resolutions are to finish our bedroom (which includes adding color to it with some headboard-wall wallpaper -- it's waaay to neutral right now) and redo our family room (sectional, storage, wall art, etc). I'm excited that we finally have the $$ to do it! And just in general, I want to not be so afraid of adding more color and pattern to our home.
That fabric is fantastic! My (very ambitious) resolution for the first part of the year is to reupholster a perfect wingback that I found on craigslist! I, as of yet, don't know how to reupholster...But I'll learn!
Gorgeous! Love these pillows.
My resolution is to DECORATE MY HOUSE! We just bought a 1947 Cape Cod and I'm determined to make it fabulous (but have the patience to pick the right pieces and really express my style).
I could start with some awesome pillows... :)
I guess everybody else's comments bear repeating....LOVE the pillows, LOVE the fabric. My New Years Resolution is to re-do my den, dining room and breakfast area. I've ordered new furniture for the den (BTW - these pillows would absolutely be PERFECT with my new furniture), and I'm painting my old dining room suite. I've got my eye on some new items for the breakfast area. I'm going to imitate some of my favorite blogs and will be making my curtains for the den out of painters drop cloth with colored fabric on the bottom and I want to paint a border on a sisal rug. Why are these my New Years Resolutions? Well....because every well-intentioned Resolution I make is always broken before January is over. These I've listed will absolutely be done at some point in time in 2010. (And hopefully the den furniture will feature these stunning pillows you're giving away).

my design goal is to unpack & declutter from a recent move as I have been avoiding the boxes/piles of pillows, wall hangings etc. I no longer have space for. Keep the best/favorite items, get rid of the rest!
I also hope to paint more rooms.
I love that fabric! It reminds me of our trip to China when we adopted our daughter.
My resolution is to update our guest room and our 6 year old daughter's room. Since our daughter was afraid to sleep upstairs alone, we became guests in our own home so she would feel safer. Out went the queen size bed and all my Ralph Lauren and in went a king size bed and a white matelasse duvet, but that was it. I have been wallowing in the world of indecision, just stuck and unable to do anything. No more! This is the year to get both rooms and the jack and jill bath done!

Oh, I love this fabric! I know exactly where these would go :)
This year my goal is to finish painting all the wood trim in our house. I'm sanding, priming, and painting it all to a beautiful white, and I hope to have it completed during the first part of this year!
Love these pillows. My husband and I were recently married and have been blessed to be able to live in his grandparent's nicely furnished condo while they are living in the DR for the next year. It's wonderful, but very much not my style, and I am dying to make our first "home' ours in some way....that doesnt disturb their carefully decorated home. So I'm my plans for 2010 are pillows, table decor and whatever else I can think of!
My resolution is to organize and decorate my home office. I found a beautiful shade of green that I love (Martha Stewart color - can't remember the name now) and want to use it to paint some of the furniture I already have. Painting furniture a bold color is a big step for me, but I think I'm ready to take it on!
Have to comment so I can win the fab pillows! My resolution this year is to finish all projects that I started prior to 2009 (I figure being a year behind is slightly, VERY slightly, acceptable). It's going well so far, I'm on track, but then again it's only Jan. 4th. :}
ooooh I LOVE these pillows. My husband and I just moved to San Francisco and are furnishing our home from scratch!! These would go perfectly with my grey, yellow, and turquoise color scheme. Pick me! Pick me!! BTW, LOVE your blog!
I would love to have these pillows to finish off the new look of my bedroom. After living in our house for five years, we're finally going to give it some color (albeit gray) on the Master bedroom walls and have accents of black and green. It might sound funky, but it looks nice.
I love that fabric. My resolution this year is to revamp the master bedroom: buy/make new duvet cover and sheets, add curtains to make the room deliciously dark for sleeping in, and replace bedside tables with something less rickety and of a better scale relative to the bed. Have I mentioned that I'm nuts about this fabric? Totally the direction I want the bedroom to go.
Gorgeous pillows!
I resolve to make my home more pretty in the little details. Paintings, photo's, pillows, etc. These would go a long way!
My decor/design resolution is to find 3 pieces (furniture) to refinish - find, refinish and sell! I have a full-time job, so this is on the side, but what I've done so far (last year) I've really enjoyed!!
:-) Lisa
I LOVE these pillows and they would be perfect for my #1 design resolution for 2010 which is to finish decorating my master bedroom. The color palette is Gray and Green. This is my #1 resolution becuase I want to have a relaxing bedroom for the new year!

These pillows are gorgeous!!
My design New Year's resolution is to get at least 1 room in my home completely done. I'm closing on my first house in a few weeks and there is lots of work to be done and many more ideas floating around in my head!
My resolution is to do at least one house project every week. This week, I'm re-tiling my bathroom floor (the hardest part is going without a shower!) If I consistently do something (no matter how small) every week, my house will be rocking by 2011!
My New Year's Design Resolution is to get more orgainized. We live in a loft with NO STORAGE, so I have decided to work things out in the bedroom by a dresser (or two) to free up some room in the closet for the hobby head (ski's, gold clubs, tents, etc).
I have already identified the Craiglist posting I am after.... I would be happy to post.
In addition, these beautiful pillows would go PERFECTLY with our humdrum sofa which needs some love!
My resolution involves setting up my home office! Being able to work in a stylish and organized space would be a dream!
those pillows are fabulous and would go perfectly with my turquoise sofa. my new years resolution is to finally get my photo montage of frames on the wall and put curtains up to cover my mirrored closets. can't wait till it's all done!
Great giveaway! These would go along with my design resolution, which is to add more print and pattern in my home. I need to spice it up a bit.
My resolution is to add a matte black wall to my dining room (for impact) and to add more patterns to the living room.

I absolutely love this fabric!!
My design resolution this year is to finish up my guest room and office.
Love your blog! My resolution is to organize and stay organize. I saw PureStyleHome is thinking the same thing with me and I will follow her blog to make myself motivation. The other thing is to make my house a home. We moved to a house that's missing vanity, light fixture, etc and now we are complete with them, my attention really goes to make the house my own and comfortable.
What wonderful pillows! One of my resolutions is to "survive a renovation (gracefully) that will begin this Spring!" I will have my very own studio to work from and a new kitchen/lounge as well as Master Bedroom!
I can hardly wait and those pillows would look perfect.
I love neutrals and splashes of color!

our biggest decorating goal for 2010 is to redo our master bedroom, new bedding and chairs for the sitting area are ordered and on the way, I wanted to add a modern accent touch and these pillows would definitely do the trick! great giveaway!

New decade, new design. I'm cleaning out all the clutter and only bringing in the loveliest. These pillows are lovely.

My 2010 resolution is to decorate! We bought a brand new house in July 09 - I've been waiting for the First-time home-buyers tax refund to come. Up until now, I haven't hung a picture, or painted a wall. Well the check finally came, and I'm ready!

Love the pillows!
My design New Year's resolution is to PAINT, PAINT, PAINT! When we bought our house, it had the same cream colored paint in every room. A nice color. BUT, I always said in my first house, I would paint every room a different color. I thought, however, that one color makes the house "seem" newly built. Well, no more! I want color, baby. Color makes my heart sing. I bought a hot pink tufted side chair at a flea market this weekend and I'm going to design my bedroom around that chair. I can't wait!!!
My 2010 New Year's Resolution is to:
• get comparative estimates;
• look at sample options;
• make a decision about the raw concrete floors on the second floor of my new CA loft.
This will enable me to move forward, invite the Muses and get to what I'm here for...to make things.
My design resolution is to create a modern nursery out of our spare bedroom with some DC flare and hopefully create a baby to make use of the space! Thanks for the opportunity to win such great pillow.
i love these but i hope i don't win because my resolution (as you very much know) is to keep spring cleaning and get rid of more and more! great pillows, cococozy!!
Muy Bien in 2010!
I am hoping this year will be ALL about streamlining my life: house, biz, life schedule etc etc :-)
I am going to finally build that vegetable garden I have always lusted after, RIGHT after I wallpaper the foyer and finish the guestroom valences! Lots to do - ooooh lala!

I am hoping to get rid of all the dark furniture (black or espresso) that is so popular these days for a teak or cherry finish. I love the look of dark, but can't stand how easily they look dusty!
Mid century modern is my goal!
Thanks for the chance of this giveaway.

These are so pretty and would look great in my living room! Love that fabric. My design resolution is to buy dining room chairs!!!
What a fun treat! I have so many things on my list!! My first priority is probably a mantle, hoping for a fabulous antique find!
Perfect for my new house. This year I want to work on colorful accents. New curtains, pillows and area rugs.
I finally had to pitch my old couch pillows...this gorgeous pair would look oh so lovely in my home! My design plan for 2010 is to redo what I like to call the "pit." I also really want to paint quite a few walls in my home gray.
I found your site via little green notebook. These pillows would look great on my couch (and help me get rid of my mismatched (not in a cute way) pillows). My 2010 home resolution is to get rid of clutter in pretty much every room. I'm getting used to having a toddler around! New pillows is an easy first step.
I love these pillows! They are super gorgeous. I finally get to move out of our apartment this Spring and into a home! So, this year I will have tons of projects to keep me busy making my new home a place I LOVE. Your design style inspires me!

It would be funny to say that my New Years goal would be to put these beautiful pillows on my couch, but my real goal is to finnish all my projects. 2009 was a crazy year and I want 2010 to feel more peaceful, and nothing makes you feel better than completed projects. Hooray for 2010! P.S. This pillows would look good on my couch.
My resolution is to get our guest room together. In the meantime, I could sure use those pillows in our master- they would match perfectly! Thanks so much for hosting such a great giveaway!

Love the pillows! Beautiful! My New Years resolution is to enjoy the decorating I did last year. Take a deep breath and truly enjoy the hard work and passion that went into it.
They are beautiful! My design New Years goal is to finish updating the sitting area in my house that I've been 'working' on for months! I'm going with a sunny yellow and gray combo!! It involves lots of painting....so it's dragging on forever. Thanks so much,
Jana
You have the MOST darling blog. My decorating resolution for 2010 is to go with the flow and not get caught up in what's the newest, hottest trend: Be true to thine self.
Although the pillows would add that je ne sais quois for 2010.
Happy new year...
I love the pillows! My design resolution is to do my first re-upholstery project. The ugly tattered chair in my living room will be transformed into beauty!
I love those pillows. The space I exist in is so impactful. It is important to me to have my master bedroom be a place where I can truly relax and feel like myself. In this new year I want to pull my bedroom together to make it a calm organized space that reflects my personality.

Beautiful! My design resolution this year is to addd some life to my bathroom. It's so dull! Though my couch could also use some more pillows...
It's funny you should mention adding more colour, that is what I have been aiming to do for some time.
Nice giveaway too.
spamtrap27@internode.on.net
Oh, and if I won, I would be happy to receive the covers only, as I'm in Australia.
Lovely, lovely! My design resolution for this is to create a comfortable home for me and my new husband. We have almost nothing and are trying to make sometime beautiful out of flea market finds and hand-me-downs. These pillows would give our spaces a classy touch to our first place together.

I LOVE those pillows. I just got married in September and our first big purchase was our pretty, white sofa, with a tan, track arm, accent chair. Now all my livingroom needs are those pillows! In 2010, I am going to finish designing our master bedroom. It will be a white palete with deep purple accents!
I would love to have this pillows! They are beautiful.
My 2010 decor resolution is to go to yard sales, flea markets, thrift stores, etc and find cute things to update and fill our home with adorable things for cheap.

IF these pillows make it to my house by year is going to be wonderful. I plan on revitalizing my bathroom and adding furniture to the living room so I can sit the entire family.
Mine is to make a new upholstered headboard for our bed, and do the entire thing myself in a rich suede fabric. We'll see how it goes!

Those pillows are divine and what an impact they would make in my home!
My New Year's Resolution is to have my master bedroom made over -- been in this house now for six years and have done almost every room except this one!
Thanks so much for the giveaway. I enjoy your blog so much! Happy New Year!

LOVE the pillows!! my resolution is to declutter our home.
My resolution is to find a job! I am a recent graduate from Auburn University in interior design and just recently completed my internship in Nashville. I have spent the holidays re-vamping my portfolio to send out with job applications with the coming of the new year. I feel my design tastes have developed so much in the past year and these pillows scream ME! LOVE THEM
hope i win! :)
love love love these!! My design goal for 2010 is to decorate my bedroom. For too long it's been an empty space.
blchristensen@verizon.net
Love the pillows!
After moving from Atlanta to Chicago a few months ago, my design resolution is to, in the next 2 1/2 months(before our 3rd baby is due) decorate my living room, kitchen, and baby's room.
declutter and get rid of everything we don't use. then spruce up with some new accessories.
I just need to do anything in the way of decor. I have lived here two years and still haven't hung anything on the walls. These pillows are beautiful-please pick me!!
Amazing Pillows!
My goals are to get our house ready to sell by finishing our minor bathroom remodel(that I'm now kicking myself that I didn't do earlier to actually enjoy) and by getting rid of A LOT of stuff. We will be moving from Missouri to L.A. for at least a year!
I have so many rooms that need to be painted, redone, etc.....so one room at a time - hopefully, one a month! Need inspiration! Thank you for entering me in the drawing.
Organize all the closets and get rid of some stuff. After 29 years in the same house, we have way too much. After that I can use the visible storage more attractively...bookshelves, countertops, etc.
digram@socal.rr.com
Oh, I love the pillows!! In 2010, I'm going to be adding color and reorganizing my accessories. New pillows would be a great start!
My resolution is to revamp some decorated areas like my mantel and newly painted dining room. The wheels are turning in my head and I'm getting a lot of ideas from Cococozy!!
What a great giveaway! My home resolution is to get window coverings up in our kitchen and master bedroom (rather than the blanket covering the window now). Love those pillows--they'd be just the inspiration our master bedroom needs!
I'm inspired by all of the comments already! My design goal is to add a more modern touch to my overall home (clean, simple lines) while keeping some traditional elements (beautiful tufted upholstery). The pillows fit into this design goal perfectly!
those pillows are gorgeous!
my resolution is to make my laundry room pretty. I want to fancy it up to match the rest of my house, and to make it a nice place to be. with two small children I do a lot of laundry, so it should be a pretty place, right? :)
My design goal for 2010 is to stop saying, "when the kids are a little bigger..." about making purchases such as a new rug, table, etc. for our home because there is no better time than now! Happy New Year!
Beautiful pillows!
My next project is to refinish an antique french country dining set.
catrinewalsh@yahoo.com
These pillows are adorable! Love the graphic print. What a lucky winner he/she will be! My resolution for this year is to organize and pretty-up my storage areas, from my laundry shelves to master closet, and all the closets and shelves in between. I just discovered Lauren from Pure Style Home will be doing the same, and seeking out pictures of re-dos from readers. I'm drawn to this. What a better way to stay accountable and get some great ideas? Thanks for a fun giveaway!
LOVE the pillows! My goal this year is to declutter and get organized!! I have way too much stuff!

My decor goal for 2010 is to find some more attractive storage options. I only have one closet in my brownstone apartment which I have maximized to its fullest. I need additional storage to declutter my bedroom and home office/living room. I would also like to find some beautiful new bed linens.
jlturner@optonline.net
Thank you so much for this opportunity! In 2010, I plan on picking just the right artwork/paintings for our house. We recently painted the ENTIRE house so I have blank walls to decorate. I want to challenge myself to move the artwork from rooms they were previously used in to create just the right look.
What a GREAT giveaway! I didn't have throw pillows for 2 years because I was waiting for the perfect ones... these might be them. :)
My design resolution is to do what I love without second guessing myself. I always wonder if what I'm doing is "right" or "works," when I think the first question should be whether or not it's right or works for ME. I also want to declutter, too. We're in an 860 square feet apt, so that shouldn't be hard, but I tend to be a pack rat. Out with the old/unused in 2010!
Ohhh, we need pillows for our new couch desperately and these would be perfect. Thanks for hosting the giveaway!
My fiance and I have a lot on our design slate this year as we move in together and begin to live like real grown-ups :) First and foremost, a kitchen remodel. Should be a good premarital endurance test, I think, ha.
Oooooooo! I love that fabric! It's so beautiful! I have so many design goals this year. First off, I really want to add more color. My house is so neutral it's sad. I am so drawn to bright reds and greeny yellows and appley greens right now. I need to add pops of colors around the neutrals to make my house happy. My second goal is to add more pretty fabrics. Curtains and linens and of course, those pretty pillows. Yummy!
Love your blog! My New Year's design goal is to tile my backsplash! Then I want to move on a guest bedroom makeover!
