If these etsy crush posts were indicative of my etsy browsing tendencies then 95% of them would feature pillow shops. It’s true. I spend most of my time on etsy looking at pillows. It’s what I do. HH’s reaction is always the same “are you looking at pillows again?!” The majority of the time, I’m not looking to buy. I just really like looking at pillows. Like, really like looking at pillows. I am a pillow researcher. Yes, that is an official title. And I’m fond of all kinds of pillows: patterned & solid, shabby chic & graphic, vintage & new, cutesy & sophisticated… you get the idea. I think it’s pretty amazing what pillows can do for a room. Whether there are two or ten, they can totally “make” a room.

This week I couldn’t resist sharing a pillow shop. I recently purchased a pillow cover from Oriental Tribe 11 for our master bedroom and I’m so happy with it! Take a gander at which one lives on my bed now…

Oriental Tribe 11 features pillow covers made from tribal textiles – many of them from traditional Hmong batiks. I love all the unique patterns, colors and embroidery work. They have a casual vibe with a playful, bohemian look. I can’t help but think of Amber’s design aesthetic. These are definitely pillows that could carry a room.

So now tell me, are you a pillow researcher too? I can’t be the only one.

*THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.*

Congrats to Charlotte whom advises cloth-diapering parents to buy diapers in gender neutral colors so they can be used on future kids or sold to folks with boys or girls.

A few weeks ago I featured the etsy shop Mod MomME. {Btw, etsy crush posts are not sponsored and I only feature shops I have bought from or would like to buy from.} After the post, I was contacted by Mod MomME’s owner asking if I’d be game for a giveaway. Yes!

I talked a little about my experience with cloth diapering earlier today and this giveaway relates to the topic. See entry details below.
