A New Look for the New Year

I am constantly changing the pillows and accessories in my living room and it really does change the look of the room.  It’s always fun to look back and see what all was going on in 2011.

One of the first changes last spring was to make some blue and yellow pillows, and use some of the blue and white decor that I had found at GW.

Summer brought some totally different colors.  I had a new sofa and some orange and green pillows for a vibrant summery color scheme.

Fall arrived with a few more changes.  This time I added some brown crewel fabric to the orange mix.

Winter came with the revival of some old pillows in a dark peach, taupe and chocolate.

I always start to long for a clutter free and calm space when Christmas is over.  So my mind is spinning around looking for a new color scheme for the new year.  I love this piece of fabric, the pattern and color is wonderful and since it is reversible, the possibilities are endless.

 I dug around through my stash and found a couple of other fabrics that will coordinate really well with it.  I love this heavy embroidered piece.

A simple stripe always works with multiple patterns.

 I found this lovely crocheted table topper, maybe layered over a simple cream cloth.

 This is a good start, now I just need to find some trims and possibly another fabric and I will have a totally new room for the new year.

How about you, are you ready for something totally different for the new year?
