The Pillow!

totem pillow cover from West Elm
I have been obsessed with this pillow since I first saw it in West Elm's Fall Preview.  Since I already have a closet full of throw pillows in my guest room, this was clearly not a necessity, but I could not help but love it.  I put it in my West Elm shopping bag as soon as I saw it, even though it would not be available for a few months.  I came back to it often, wondering if I was still as in love with it as I was at first sight.  Well...I was and my love got stronger.  Ha!

Then it hit me like a bus...I still had leftover money on a giftcard from Christmas!!!  Score!  I snatched it up so fast and when it arrived, it truly did feel like a little holiday.  I adore this pillow, as sad as it sounds....and I think my boys agree.  :)

[Yes, he is wearing fuzzy pjs in the middle of the summer...my house is kept cold at night and this was first thing in the morning.  :P]

[Brody curls up on it every night.]


I realize I sound like I am obsessed with "stuff."  I assure you, that is not the case.  My life would obviously go on without this pillow, but I sure smile every time I look at it.  :)

OMG! I have had my eye on that pillow. I am waiting for it to go on sale! Will it ever go on sale? I need it! Ha ha!

ahaha You sound like me!!! West Elm definitely has sales and often, but I am always afraid certain things will sell out before actually reaching the sale. I am a little crazy, though! It is in the free shipping group right now, so that's a little something! :P

LOL! I have that same pillow and also fell in love with it when I saw the preview. I ordered it as soon as I saw it and never gave it a second thought. I completely forgot about it and when it arrived, it was such a surprise! I must say, it looks better in your house, though! :o)
