I seem to be on a constant quest for the perfect accent pillow. A room can be somewhat plain and ordinary but add a snazzy, colorful pillow and there you have it… a touch of pizzazz! My living room is gray with some tan which is across from the navy dining room with tan curtains. I’d like to tie the navy into the living room with a pop of navy in the accent pillows. Then again, I must admit one of my huge pet peeves. I hate it when someone sits on one of my pillows! I sit there, watch, and try to figure out my plan of attack to pull the pillow out from under the behind! Do beautiful accent pillows inspire you? Do we share the same pet peeve?
