Trust in the LORD with all your HEART. Lean not unto your own understanding, but acknowledge him in all thy ways and he will direct your path.

~~~PILLOW TALK~~~

I came across this pillow the other day at T.J. Maxx and it spoke to me...........so much, I had to have it.   I  like birds, I enjoy birds.....they are very sweet,  pleasant to hear and watch but I never thought I would enjoy a bird fabric pattern in my cottage.  I LOVE the muted colors and I love natural (nature) things.  The cottage speaks that to me......even the shingle roof I chose (not intending) is from the woodland nature collection.



Here is a textured pillow I picked up to go with the bird pillow.  It's hard to tell from the pic but the button is brown, not black.   Or.......



here is the textured pillow in the soft lime-green.  They both are so nice.  I believe this bird pillow is going to set my accent color for the cottage.  Overall, these are "earthy" colors in the pillow....warm soft brown, muted soft gray and muted soft blue and limey green.

Although, the cottage will be very neutral, I am in love with this print.....  And I also give myself permission to change my mind, if I choose!

As my Grandmother use to say........Birds of a feather, flock together!  In this case, it's for decorating!

  4. Roxie,
    great finds! Love the colors in your bird pillow. I'm guessing that you'll find some more treasures in those colors to decorate your cottage with; it will be so cute.

    I'm of the mind-set that we should decorate with the things and colors that make us happy. I've never been one to bend to trends anyway~~~ *smile**.

    Have a happy day.

  11. Oh Roxie, we must be birds of a feather and flock together because I LOVE birds too, and your bird pillow is so delightful. Don't ya just love TJ Maxx.......one of my favorite stores. The pillow goes so well with the others, and it looks pretty sitting there on your wire bench. I love to decorate, and I'm looking forward to seeing all your ideas you have for the cottage.

    Happy Friday, Roxie.

    love,

  17. Dear Roxie - I would not have been able to resist that pillow either. TJ Maxx - hmm - wonder if they have more near where I live. I am waiting to see more pictures of your cottage coming together. You will certainly make it beautiful when you get it finished. Have a great week.
