I’m doing a little updating and changed out my pillows in my living room to get a fresh new look!
It’s also a really inexpensive way to get a new look since pillows cost very little (or you can make your own).

Isn’t this pillow just the cutest! I love the contrast of the red ticking with the white ruffle. I got this pillow slip from etsy and just used one of my existing pillows as the insert.
This pillow is from the Country Living Collection at KMart. I just loved the ruffled edge and of course the color is my favorite shade of green.
I’ve had these red ticking pillows since forever. I think they may have been Pottery Barn from about 8 years ago but I’m not sure. I paired them with some new toile and gingham pillows (pillow slips from ebay). I added some pom pom fringe to these.
Ticking and toile, gingham and toile, also polka dots and toile are all favorite pattern combinations! I’ve been looking for a polka dot and toile pillow for some time now – I may just have to make one.
You don’t have to do drastic stuff to get a new look! I made just a few easy and inexpensive changes to get a fresh look in my living room.
I hope you are all have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by!
Your pillows look great! I wish I had a slipcovered sofa….I love yours!

Ohh…I LOVE your pillows…especially the RED ones…and that Red Rooster…oh…beautiful.
Beautiful pillows! I just love throw pillows and I love the way you group yours.
I have the same PB red ticking stripe in my family room. I fall asleep watching TV with my head on it almost every night.
I LOVE all your wonderful pillows! It always looks so cozy and inviting at your home. LOVE everything!
I agree, pillows make a room look inviting and comfortable. Love the fabrics you've used. I know this post is about pillows, but I really like your mirrored table. So unusual.

Lucky Heidi!
Do tell us who you ordered the pillow cover from. 🙂 Your room looks fantastic. I'm just like you..continuing to love yellow, red, toile, and roosters.
Love them all. I am going to make some pillows out of the red ticking fabric I have left over and was even going to add ruffles. Great seeing one already done. I just love your decor. You and I think alike!
Beautiful!

Pretty! Really like the green and white one. Congratulations to Heidi!
Beautiful Manuela, just beautiful.
Congratulations to Heidi!
These are great little changes for a fresh, new look! Thank you for the inspiration. . . I need to do the same thing. And thanks for the tip about buying pillow slips from Etsy–I hadn't thought to look there!
The changes you made with your pillows are wonderful! I love the look of your home – always do when I come by to visit. The flowers on your coffee table are gorgeous! Did you arrange them?

Love all of your pillow changes. They look wonderful. I so agree, just changing the pillows makes a room look totally different. Love the beautiful rooster vase with the flowers. Gorgeous. Hugs, Marty
cute pillows and love the rooster vase tin..
Gorgeous changes, Manuela. What a beautiful post!
Manuela, I love the pillows you chose to decorate with. And the toile with the red checks and ticking is just wonderful.
And I'll be looking for the next giveaway… although I don't want to be too greedy!

Very nice. I like the combination of the toile with the ticking and gingham. Looks very cheerful with all the red.
Beautiful pillow cases!! Lovin' the toile 🙂
I love the colors in that bouquet. The pillows are very cute. I thought it was interesting that the ticking worked so well with the more sophisticated fabrics. i love ticking. I'm trying to come up with a new look for my den. It's difficult because of the wall of multi-colored books. I thinking I should go with a more subdued room that doesn't fight with the books. The walls in my house are all beigh and I'm beyond painting myself and can't afford to pay, so I have to bring in color in other ways. I'm going to look through you blog you do color so beautifully.

Those pillows are so pretty…I love pillows but they are pretty much my husbands arch nemesis, so to him we always have too many and to me, we always have too few! 🙂
Have a great rest of your week!
I LOVE that rooster container arrangement!!
AWESOME! Yes! changing out a few items or even moving the furniture around, and you can feel like you've got a new room! Congrats to the winner. Thanks again Manuela! Hugs!
Congratulations to Heidi on winning the giveaway! 🙂
I love your all pillows! The red ticking one with the white ruffled edges is darling, and looks perfect on the white chair. (Which is also so cute!)
I hope you have a beautiful day!
You have made some lovely changes. Your living room looks so pretty and fresh. Hugs. Cindy S
Yay! I'm so excited, I REALLY wanted that book too! 🙂 I LOVE your pillows! I wish I could live with a bunch of pillows, but we only keep 2 out b/c we have a 2 year old and I get tired of picking them up off the floor or in the kitchen, or on his bed, or in the bathtub, or wherever else his little heart leads him to take my darn pillows!
I just love all of your pillows and that flower arrangement is fantastic! Great Job, your home is gorgeous!
Cindy
Bonjour Manuela,
Just found your beautiful blog via one of your comments on Yvonne's Stone Gable. Love these red pillows and congratulations to the winner of the giveawqay.
I'll be following along and will be back soon!

Changing little things and rearranging is sort of like painting. It's cheap but makes a world of difference. I love these colors. They say: "Please come in and visit. You're welcome here."
Brenda
Sometimes it's the little changes that can make the biggest difference. I love your pillows, Manuela! I'm a big believer in doing small things like changing throw pillows to get a new or different look going.
Your livingroom is lovely! I sure wish it were mine, especially since I love roosters!
LOVE the new pillows and LOVE the arrangement and container on your table! Cute cute cute!!!
I love your red pillows and your flower arrangement if beautiful!!
Oh, Manuela, your house is so inviting! I love all the toile combined with the other patterns. I love toile with ANYTHING! LOL!
I love the red ticking with white and toile. Slipcovers are great! Thanks for sharing.
Debbie
Love your pillows!
I like making simple changes. I may need to check out the Country Living Collection at K-Mart – I like that pillow!
Very pretty! I like changing pillows around too.
Congrats to the winner!
Hugs,
Donna
Hi Manuela! So good to hear from you! I think your pillows look so pretty, and the fresh colors just makes me want to make over a room. But of course I can't keep changing everytime I see something that I love. I often wish I had enough rooms that I can decorate each in all of my favorite styles. LOL!!! Deb
Isn't it amazing what a bit of pom-pom can do. Have a perfect day sweetie xoxoxo Clarice
Hi Manuela! Wow, this post so beautifully examples how small little luxuries like pretty pillows can make a big impact and change the look and feel of a room. Gorgeous, economical genius…as always!!! 🙂
Love and hugs,

Every time you show your living room I want to slipcover my sofa white! You can change out the accessories and get so many beautiful looks so easily. Your new pillows are once again, just adorable and really change things up. I'm really loving the brilliant bouquet of flowers too!
I love the redux! That vase is the exact same print that is on my favorite reusable shopping bag! Small world.
Love that you change up your home with subtle little changes that make a grander impact. Thank you for inspiring me once again.
Manuela, your pillows are so pretty. Of course, I love anything toile, so I'm love that. What a great rooster flower container, and the flowers are so pretty. laurie
You have a new follower, Manuela! Hopefully I can do half as well as you are doing out here in blog land!! Thanks for your kind words!
Beautiful pillows! Little changes are often the best. Love the pretty flowers too.
My mouth is inappropriately wide open right now. Gimme that red rooster girl!!! Seriously, I love your pillows. I'm purchasing some toile fabric right now to recover some chairs…Waverly Sweet Pastimes Spice–the reverse pattern on your chairs. Love the chairs and the pillows are perfect!
I am totally in love with the photos of the flowers. And, of course, your pillows are so cute!
