A Blooming Giveaway!


Last week I promised to all those who participated in my blog survey a little thank you in the way of a unique giveaway! This is a special one you can make your very own! The extremely talented Laura Larson from Two Yellow Shoes has been nice enough to offer up a set of her "Blooming Pillows". I discovered TYS while scouting local Boston Etsy designers for a STUFF Magazine article and immediately fell in love! She is one incredibly creative lady and I love the fact these sweet pillows came out of a desire for a ring bearers pillow for her own wedding! I would also see these pillows used with an accent chair in a nursery, as the wow piece in the living room or even better one for my bed and one as a surprise gift for a friend!


"Pillows measure approx. 13" x 13" in size. The pillows are made from canvas and the flowers are felt and measure in various sizes, 12" x 12" being the largest layer. Eight layers of wool felt make up each flower. These pillows "pucker" in the center giving the illusion that the flower is blooming." Two Yellow Shoes

A sample of felt colors available for the "Bloom"!



Not only does Laura create amazing pillows she also is an expert in beautiful wedding invitations and accents. I just adore her custom favor boxes check them out at her Etsy Store!

In order to enter please leave a comment below with your Blooming felt color selections and where you would use them in your house! There will be one winner (of 2 identical pillows) which I will announce next Monday 2/8/10.

Good Luck and thanks again for participating in the survey, your honest feedback was just incredible!

What a fantastic giveaway! I'm in the process of redecorating our living room, so these pillows would be absolutely perfect for our couch. Something in a gray or black background with purple and red in the bloom is exactly what I've been looking for!

these pillows are just too cute! i love the way the flowers add an element of depth and dimension...and the palette makes them all the more cozy. i'd probably go with the colors that are a little more saturated but regardless, they'd look great on the green damask sofa in my den, the charcoal sofa in my living room OR on my pink/white/chocolate bedding! =) thanks for sharing!

Super Chic!! I would love the Plum/Green combo for my charcoal gray couch!

I actually love the monotone beige/white for a fun changeout in the living room. And you're right, they would be a great addition to a modern nursery!

I would love a turquoise and white pillow for my guest room! The bed needs something to jazz it up!

Emily said...

oh my goodness do you know how long I've been crushing on TYS and those pillows!? So cute! I actually have a duvet cover that has a pretty flower pattern similar to these flowers! I use it in the guest bedroom and those pillows in pink and white would look so cute with the duvet cover! And add a little more color to the mostly white room!

Julie Q said...

Wow, these pillows are so pretty! I actually love the colors in the first picture. That would be cute in my bedroom (but i'd have to move them into the living room whenever I had company over)

These pillows would be perfect in my bedroom. I need something to change my throw-together-dorm-room-style bed into an adult sophisticated look. Something to work with coffee and bright blue walls. Beautiful!!

Crystal @ Plush Palate said...

WOW! What talent! I love the black and white ones. They'd look perfect in my black and white bedroom! Thanks for introducing us to a fab new talent!

xo,
Crystal

I love the black and white ones. I am envisioning them in my black and blue guest bedroom in the house we just bought!

Dawn said...

I love these pillows and have the link saved to buy some when we get a house later this year ... unless I win a free pair here, that is!

I love the damask and white ones in the photo, but if I had to choose from the solid color options, I like camel and white felt paired OR the robin's egg blue paired with the straw color. I'm so torn! I love these pillows!

sara said...

Lovely etsy store!

The damask pillows would be a great addition to my bedroom. I'm going for a fabulous space and love me some damask. If there was any way to incorporate the garnet wool color, that would be perfect.

These pillows are so scrumptious you could build the design of a whole room around them ... but if I have to pick a spot to put them in today, I'd choose the red couch in my sitting room - with cherry cordial and summer squash (see, sounds like something you could eat!)

PS - Your blog is a delight, glad I "found" you on Twitter!

Paula Grace Designs said...

These are fabulous! I want the whole bouquet!

I can just see these beautiful pillows in pink and bright blue for my daughter's room! One in blue with pink and one pink with blue - dreamy! I have been coveting these for months... Thanks for a great contest.

Navy & cream, for the family room. How fun!

Lara @ GoodCookDoris said...

How fun! The black and white would look great on my red couch!

I absolutely love the orange! Probably because I am such a big Clemson fan. But we just painted a bedroom in our new house with 1 orange wall and these would look great on the bedspread we got to match!

thanks SO much for all the comments, I am so glad you could see these pillows in your own home. I love all the creative color combos you came up with. Fantastic!
