I got this cool thing...Crate & Barrel pebble decorative pillow!

It was March.17th, the day of the St. Patricks Day Parade in NYC. I had the daunting task of getting from the west side to the east side for a doctors appointment right in the middle of the parade.
There were green people everywhere. More like green monsters. Drunk. Happy. Running around. Shouting. I was playing frogger in a sea of green. Fighting through the crowds of leprechauns and shamrocks.
I spied a woman who was on a mission like myself. She was moving at a fast pace and weaving and dodging the sea of green like a pro. I rode her coat tails and swiftly made my way through.
When I got across town early, I had some time to kill.
I needed peace. Sanctuary. I saw Crate & Barrel. Perfect! I can rest on their comfy couches.
I was so excited when I saw the "Cory" pillow staring at me. It looked like stones!! When I got closer I could see it was fabric. Check the pillow out HERE.
This is how it looks with my couch and other pillows.
I must say I am pleased! I love bringing the beach to my living room.
Here is a close up picture so you can see what the "stones" look like.
It is so fun to decorate with a beach theme. You can do mother of pearl accents (like my lamp), starfish, coral, pebbles, sand, sand dollars, shells, driftwood etc. Such a fun theme for Spring & Summer!
More on this in future blogs.

Happy Shopping! xox Caroline
