The colors are very soothing and beautiful, but in spite of that I had one overwhelming thought when looking at this beautiful arrangement. Can you guess? Oh right, I gave it away with my title didn't I?
So, where exactly does one plunk their booty? If the hostess instructed me to sit and make myself comfortable I would be struck with sheer terror. How exactly do I make myself comfortable? Sit in one of those two little slivers not covered by pillows? Are you kidding me? My butt? I mean it's not ginormous or anything, but I couldn't even get one cheek in either of those slivers.
I have two 18" pillows on either side of my sofa and I frequently worry that that is two too many. Maybe just one at either end is fine? Still, I like all four pillows, so all four remain. But I make sure they are squished into the corners and the first thing I say to people after I tell them to sit and get comfy is to "just set the pillow(s) on the floor if they're in your way." And I MEAN it. I never want decorative pillows intimidating my guests into not getting comfortable in my home.
So while I have a deep and abiding love of beautiful pillows, I believe they have their place in the home; like in the bedroom where they're only going to annoy your man.
Here's to making room for all booties, small and large. Pillows in moderation only people.

You are so funny! Thanks for your honesty. I agree it's too many. I have a huge love for pillows, but this picture is only nice to look at and not super practical. I do love the aqua though.
