Confession- I have a major style crush on Pottery Barn. I
would live inside a Pottery Barn if mall security would let me. I can't help but stroll through, running my fingers over the cable knit throws and tinkering with the home office accessories, picturing in my head
where each item would go in my imaginary cottage. Cottage, yes, because my
dream home would be more a cross between French country boutique and Z Gallery
white on white on white. My current home is oh so very Kimberly, but has
definitely been styled around a few key hand-me-down pieces including "the grandma chair." My grandparents had it for ages but, in a compromise to
get Gramps' card table covered in projects out of their dining room and into their
home office, Grams sacrificed the chair to make space. I couldn't bear to see it lost in a
yard sale so I gave it a new home. Unfortunately, the grandma chair has been sitting in a
corner of my living room looking far too plain! It's unusually petite for an arm
chair so every pillow and throw I've paired with it seemed overbearing. Pottery
Barn clearance wall to the rescue! Sunday, on one of my above mentioned
daydreaming strolls through a Pottery Barn, this time in Pleasanton, I stumbled across this
darling little pillow marked down to a jaw dropping $10. It's perfect.
