A Little Spring Prettiness...


How's that photo for a little bright, sunshiney goodness for your day? I was looking through some of our stored home decor items, and I found this pillow. The yellow matches our quilt and shams perfectly! It's a nice dose of spring in our bedroom. That pillow is one of my favourite thrift store finds - or should I say thrift store projects...

I found a handmade pillowcase made of Amy Butler fabrics. It was perfect! Amy Butler is one of my favourite fabric designers, so I scooped it up right away, without even thinking of how I would use it. The pillowcase hung out with our linens for a long, long time. One day, Mom and I were making throw pillows for our old living room, and I remembered this pillow case. Mom measured a throw cushion filler, cut the old pillowcase to match, and sewed me up a beautiful accent pillow! How cute is the fabric combination?! I wish I knew who donated it... not only did they pick an adorable fabric combination, but where did they get the Amy Butler fabric?? It isn't available in our province... I can only order it online. What a sweet seamstress!

I hope that you have a great weekend...

Happy Friday!
