I’ve been in love with the trend of paint dipping since I saw Michelle’s smart kitchen footstool idea last fall.  Since then, all sorts of great ideas having been popping up – like wooden spoons and ceramic bowls.  I knew I wanted to get on on this trend, but I couldn’t decide what I wanted to dip.

Win a $150 Throw Pillow Giveaway from The Pillow Studio and Personal Room Styling from Me

by Lindsay Ballard on May 24, 2013

This is a post sponsored by The Pillow Studio.

I have a really warm, fuzzy place in my heart for throw pillows.  If I didn’t have kids and pets (and a husband), I’d have about fourteen throw pillows on each of my sofas.  The five I have now just end up on the floor anytime the kids/pets/husband walk into the room – an amazing feat since none of them own up to being the pillow tosser.  I think they are in cahoots, or else I have magic pillows.

Living in a home full of pillow tossers, you’d think that I would quit buying pillows, right?  Wrong!  I will gladly pick them off the floor three times a day when I know what big changes they can bring to a room.  A different color here, a different pattern there, and a fresh take on a room you have.  Maybe pillows really are magic!

Today, I’m joining with designer and seamstress extraordinaire (and Makely reader!) Suzi from The Pillow Studio to bring you an amazing giveaway.  She’s giving away $150 worth of handmade pillow covers from her shop and I’m helping you pick the best ones to help transform the room of your choice!

Win $150 in Throw Pillows from the Pillow Studio and Room Styling from MakleyHome.com

I’ve had such a hard time keeping this a secret, since Suzi and I are so excited about it!  She makes stunningly gorgeous pillows from really beautiful designer fabrics.  She’s a former nurse turned certified designer and workroom professional, which means she’s been trained to have a strict eye for those little details that make a big difference.
