I was making my usual weekly Target run. I always check out the home section. It's a must. I have an incurable itch to changing things around the house. They are remodeling the Target near me so it looks like they are trying to get rid of a lot of items. Many of them are clearance. I came across these babies.
They are Dwell Studio and have a zippered cover. Can you believe they were marked down to $7.00? I started to get one to see how I would like it but immediately grabbed another just in case I did. Good thing I got two because the rest were gone when I ran back in the next day.
Finally got my chevron and in the perfect color too.

I originally used solid pillows for the family room. I liked them for a while but they were so plain and it was starting to bug me. I started the hunt for fabrics that were the same colors but would add more dimension to the space. I told you before going into a fabric store is overwhelming for me. I start to grab everything I like but I usually walk out empty handed.I had come across Online Fabric Store though an online search. They have really good prices and have some of the same fabrics you would find in Joann's or Hancock. It was good for me since I can search at my speed and not have to rush into buying something. I found some Waverly fabric that I loved. It uses the same blue tone but has a pattern. It is the Chippendale Fretwork. I mixed this pattern with an Ikat pillow cover from Pottery Barn. No, not an actual Pottery Barn pillow cover. I made my own using one of their napkins. No one says I can't have Pottery Barn look without the Pottery Barn price. If you notice, most of their napkins and tablecloths coordinate with the pillow covers.I also found this little faux leather stool at TJ Maxx on clearance. I didn't know where I would use it but I couldn't resist the price at $5. It was originally $50! For right now, he's under the window.TJ Maxx was having a MAJOR clearance that day. I walked up and a lady had already claimed most of the furniture. Upholstered chairs were marked $25 down from $150 and she had a couple nightstands that were also unbelievably low. Had I been a few minutes earlier, they would have been mine. I got a few other pieces as well. I love clearance. Now whenever I go in there, I hit the clearance section hoping someone got happy with the pricing gun again.I also changed up the paintings in the breakfast area. The before pictures were nice but they didn't have enough color. We were able to find some that had blues and reds and worked with the modern feel of our home. Now the reds and blues are mixing nicely in here.Sharing with

When I was up at the PDC a few weeks ago I found some
Mark Alexander fabrics and I am completely in love with them. They are soft, made in a wonderful group of colors with fresh and beautiful patterns.
I cannot wait to show you what I plan to make with them!! So fun!

I think that every photo or space has that little something. The something that makes it great. For this space it is truly the way that the pillow contrasts with the rest of the space. It is so necessary but at the same time so different from everything going on in there. I love that little something....
I hope you are enjoying your weekend! I am having trouble not working.. you know how it is when you feel like you should be doing something constructive but everyone around you is rebelling? That is how this weekend is going...
