Brown

So if you happen to be one of the people who stopped by when I did my house tour (or if you are even more lucky and you have actually been to Main Street House in person) then you will know that our house is very Brown.  It seems to be that our neutral color of choice in Chocolate.  Most of the wood in our house is very dark and we are also the proud owners of the biggest and brownest couch ever.  Seen here:


Now, normally the browness of our house doesn't bother me at all, I mean I basically picked it all out so I better like it right??  However, what I have found is that now that the house is decorated for fall there is even more brown than ever.  Fine for now but I have a feeling it may get quite depressing once all of the leaves are off the trees and everything outside in brown too.

So I was so happy to see and so inspired by the Pillow Addict feature run over at Classic, Casual, Home.  I struggle with accessories and I struggle even more to put things together that look nice but aren't actually matchy-matchy.  The tips given by Abby over at Delightful Design were even more helpful.

So I headed over to my favorite site - Etsy - and did a search for "Pillows".  Here is a fun little board of my favorites that I think would do just the trick to add a bit of color to that big brown couch of mine.  What do you think?
