TBS Needs Your Help: Which Pillows?!




Good morning, Dah-lings!

I hope you're doing well today. About a year ago, I found the fabulous chairs pictured above and declared that I couldn't leave without them. Aren't they lovely? They were $350 total and I paid less than $150. A TBS deal, right? Anywho...I've wiggled, waffled and wavered about what I should do with the chairs? Paint them? Put them in another room? Well, I'm still conflicted.

Until I decide their fate, I thought it might be cool to punch them up with some pillows. Sometimes us TBS' have to make-do with what we have until the budget loosens up, right?! Has TBS mentioned that The Boy is leaving for college in less than a year? Right. So lots of stuff is being re-purposed.

Here I have two options and I'm interested to know which you like:
1. Blue Dwell from Target - $25 each
2. Orange designer's pillow. I purchased these at a designer's tag sale. Originally $200 each, I paid $50 each.
Your assistance is greatly appreciated! Helllllllllllllppppppppppppppppppppppp!!!!!!!

  1. I like the aqua/brown color scheme and design, but my choice is the animal prints with that orange trim! It's a bit wild and unexpected and the orange is a good punch. I also think that because the chairs are exactly the same, the idea of having 2 different, yet related cushions is great and much more interesting. Plus they look slightly larger, which I like.
    ...just one designer's opinion

    Happy deciding!

  5. I think I'd opt out of the pillows and go for the simplicity of the chairs alone. But what do I know :O) Nice Chairs though!

  6. I really like the blue and chocolate pillows. I think that color pops off the white chairs.

  9. animal print (the blue and brown colors are great but the print is too small and too geometrical...coflicts with the chair's design) p.s. you could opt out for a solid in an interesting color and texture.

  10. aqua/ brown.. I think the pattern itself is more structured and fits the lines of the chairs better.

    all beautiful though!!! :)

  11. Don't paint them, I think the chairs are GORGEOUS! What a great find! I like the blue/brown pillows best.

  12. All of the pillows that you chose were very interesting. However, I also opt out of the pillows. I'd use a seat cushion instead. This will allow you to better see the lines of the back and arms of the chairs. You could paint the chairs white to match your trim work or even black to match the lamp and shade sitting on the case good next to it. If you leave the chairs in their current location, consider sitting a chair on each side of the case good.

  13. My vote is the blue and brown, the animal print is too busy with the design in the chair!
