Look at my cute new pillows!!! I got them on clearance at Target and I LOVE them. I started converting our bedroom from browns to blues last fall when I bought navy curtains, then I got a new down comforter and duvet for Christmas, but the comforter and curtains desperately needed something to pull the colors together. And these pillows did the trick! I think I want one more giant navy pillow and I'll be pillowed out. My friend Jen suggested that I detach my headbaord and mount it to the wall and putting the bed frame on risers to add height instead of doing a piece of art up there. I'm embarrassed to say that it's been almost 2 years and I'm finally read to do it! (I've always loved the idea, but somewhere in there, I had a baby and became distracted away from decorating) I can't wait for you to see it when you come to visit Jen!!!

I'm with you, I'm getting overly excited about getting towels from Next for our new house. But then, you'd understand the excitement of buying things from Next, wouldn't you? Did I ever tell you they do home things, too? They're just as fantastic as their clothes. Oh how I miss that store!!!
I love the idea of a navy pillow. Just an idea: What about one of those big long bolster pillows (the kind that look like big Tootsie Rolls)? If you can't find the pattern you need, buy a cheap pillow the size you want, then find the fabric you like, and sweet-talk someone with a sewing machine to stitch a cover for you. It's a really straightforward sewing thing....you might even be able to to it with the iron-on seam things.
Anyway, it's just an idea. Keep us updated with how it turns out!
